Little Mix return as Favourites
 
Little Mix 11/8 (1.375)

Marcus Collins 6/4 (1.5)

Amelia Lily 5/1

Misha B 10/1


Its so freaking close, although Id rather Amelia come above Marcus, she offers so much more.

Think I will put a bet on them after seeing this - http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/s103/...roes-poll.html

It is from their home page which means thousands will have voted and not just people from the forums (and it got the bottom 2 spot on)

DrunkerThanMoses 28-11-2011 02:35 PM

Really? They was terrible Saturday!

Black Dagger 28-11-2011 02:36 PM

Loving it.

I'm hoping it's a Marcus/Amelia/Lil Mix final... Lil Mix prevailing.

It'd be nice for a girl group who are likeable and vocally well off to win the show.

That seems pretty damn accurate, Little Mix and Amelia top 2 :dance:

I might see if their odds lengthen at any point if its worth a bet.

It would probably be the biggest variety for a finale ever, all very different :D

Just need that ho Misha out :devil:

Absolutely... you've got the urban Lil Mix, soul Marcus and Rock chick Amelia.

We've got an urban act, Misha B is simply not needed any-more.

Locke. 28-11-2011 02:44 PM

It would be the first time I've liked all 3 finalists if Misha goes next week

Jords 28-11-2011 02:51 PM

Same here really. Of course I got a preference and Marcus isnt heavily my direction of music but I appreciate what he brings as a contestant and I like him a lot as a person.

It makes sense, Misha2Go.

Looks like she will, unless they do a bottom 2 sing off to save her once again

MusicXian 28-11-2011 02:56 PM

If them 3 are finalists, I'd like all 3, but care for none and probably wouldn't buy albums. My main faves have all gone.

Anyway I've now decided in rooting for Amelia as I think XF won't want her to win :D

Thats why they saved her over Craig...

MusicXian 28-11-2011 03:10 PM

They wanted Craig out in week 7 because he threatened to leave the show (more or less confirmed reports) and they didn't want another person leaving with an act less than they should have.

Also getting rid of Craig helped them set Marcis up perfectly for the final with Scouse support.

Same, sadly I reckon Misha is set up for the final. Still two is a record for me.

Considering in all the years of the show I've only been rooting for a start of live show finalist once before (G4)

So now youre stating they didnt want Craig to win either? :devil:


Honestly, unless its a clear fix-up (which it cant be when public vote has the greatest say) dont get your head twisted in conspiracies, support your real favourite out the 4 and not try act rebel.

MusicXian 28-11-2011 03:21 PM

It's not all to do with conspiracy. The fact is though they clearly never wanted a Janet win. In the space of a few months they portrayed her as a sweet Irish girl to a boring argumentative diva. Enough of Janet though, Craig was sabotaged, wasn't told he was first on til minutes before the show, awful VT describing how he was now from Kirkby (not Liverpool) silly judges comments when his vocals were very solid.

People make money from next elimination betting simply because they can read between the lines of the show. It's not really a conspiracy, but producers are pulling strings more than we can think. As said, what is the real purpose of a sing-off anyway? So the producers keep control.

Don't be surprised if next week they sabotage Amelia bringing back the shouting stuff.

Completely agree, I'm surprised OFCOM haven't got involved yet because its not a fair competition and it goes back as far as series 3/4. Series 1-3 were quite fair apart from Simon's overhyping of Leona (but to be fair to her she was the most talented). In series 4 they had a massive anti-Rhydian campaign but spectacularly backtracked when they realised the talent that year was appalling and a Leon/Same Difference final 2 could've been the death of the show

Adamw92 28-11-2011 04:25 PM

I've never liked all finalists in any of the finals but if Misha goes next week I will! 3 of my top 4 in the final would be amazing!

Marc 28-11-2011 04:29 PM

I don't trust that they're favourites to win until it happens.

I have heard a rumour that doesn't place them first in saturday nights votes! :(

Spoiler:

In fact they came 3rd, following both Marcus and Amelia. With Misha B being last

King Gizzard 28-11-2011 04:40 PM

This has well and truely been a woeful year

Strictly Jake 28-11-2011 05:32 PM

I like all 4 contestants left. But I would like a misha, amelia, little mix final. And I know that is a controversial choice but I like misha

Kate! 28-11-2011 06:48 PM

Misha should not make the final at the expense of ANY of the other three.

bbfan1991 28-11-2011 06:52 PM

I like Little Mix but in a way I do hope Marcus or Amelia wins. I reckon Little Mix could do very well after not winning the show, like a few people have done before..
