Eurovision 2015

[AndrewT]

The UK entry has been unveiled to a waiting world.

Unfortunately it's the worst thing you've ever heard.

[Chompy]

Ahahahaha, wtf is that?

Every channer we finish last this year. Who the hell is picking these?

Finland have taken a good walk since the early support. Heading towards an interesting price now.

Azerbaijan at 40+ seems dangerous. They're always last in with their entry and look low risk at that sort of price.

[Marky147]

Another good result for your boys today, Chompy!

Who is the other fella you were talking about as cover for Robertson?

See Daragh is taking him out for dinner on Monday, so hopefully he'll give him the job for dessert

Just WTF is that?

It defies belief that a song like that can be chucked up as the best we can offer...

Fat sweaty Steve Evans. Lives near Posh, is a Posh fan and great mets with Darragh.

The meeting with Robbo, either tomo or Tuesday, will either see Robbo given the job permo or till the end of the season. I'd sooner the latter tbh.

This bunch of players have spent the best part of a year not trying a yard for Fergie, who'd completely lost them, and even Stuart Pearce could have come in and got a short-term reaction.

We were a bit hoofy v Orient yesterday, which isn't our way. Darragh has always been all about the 'young and hungry players playing good, attractive football' idea and I wouldn't imagine he'd have been blown away by watching us play like Bradford yest.

[Chompy]

It's embarrassing the UK are still entering this kind of garbage. Get Guy Chambers or Charlie Simpson to write a song and we'd crush harder than Keith Hawkins in the upcoming poker awards.

[Marky147]

Get Camel singing, with his transferable fanbase he'd be a winner with a Guy Chambers masterpiece!

It's not with Boyles, so end of season will get everyone weighed in

As you say, give him it for a couple months, while Daragh tries to find someone to get them playing the beautiful game.

The guy won the German competition and then live on the show immediately said he didn't want to go in the comp and the second place lady had to do it. Brilliant TV, the TV producers must have been tearing their hair out at that one.

Seems to be quite controversial in Germany, but many people take this thing seriously over here!

Another new favourite, Sweden. Good song too.

Australia have done it all wrong and entered a proper song. Will either walk it or bomb imo, depends what the voters think of them being in the compo.

The first semi-final

Tuesday, 8pm, BBC3

[MintTrav]

Watching the first semi.

The singers are so-so, but the commentary is woeful. Mel out of Mel & Sue. Useless at this.

[Chompy]

Wish Scott Mills and Dr Eurovision would do some betting research.

That's awesome.

Entertaining & educational, all in one.

Take note Chompy, learn a little.
