I don't see the comparison with those people at all. David Sneddon always seemed like a nice guy, if a little tedious. But eye candy he most certainly wasn't. Gareth Gates, on the other hand, was a real heartbreaker. He could've got by in spite of his lack of vocal ability if he'd been managed properly. It worked for Will Young, after all.

Aye, indeed it did dent Rowetta's chances. Shame because she was ace. Far better than what we ended up with as a "winner".
I see the comparison with Sneddon, they're both young guys (who I'm sure had/have plenty of teenage girls voting for them) and that's what wins these days.
It's a shame because so much talent is thrown by the way-saide to make room for the enxt big teenie-bopper thing....until they decide they don't like them anymore and move on..ie. Gareth Gates/ David Sneddon...
And yes, Ruth, he is getting very cocky, but he's known from the start he is a favourite...head is getting bigger by the minute. Maybe they'' enlarge the studio door for him next week.
