It didn't seem to make that much difference sometimes as it was not the crowd who voted.

This was a different eviction though. This crowd was telling Roxanne and Ryan of the displeasure Roxanne was causing the viewing public.

Roxanne was a coward so she walked, she knew her game was up and couldn't face the consequences of her actions. I do not blame the crowd in this instance as Roxanne would never have come out of the house unless she looked as good as she possibly could,

Originally Big Brother started off with studio announcements and no crowd noise into the house. It was only a few series later they started doing it, and even then the crowds would never chant "GET __ OUT" when the host was talking to the house because they knew it affected the integrity of social isolation. It's only really since the show moved to C5 that 'GET ___ OUT' chants became a regular everyone eviction episode and was a way for crowds to influence what happens in the house. That's not what Big Brother is about and you can tell producers have realised that, hence the studio announcements. Look how shocked everyone was when Natalie went - they had no idea she was hated because they couldn't hear crowd noise.

Nope, natural justice taking it's course would've been Roxy being evicted on Monday having no clue how hated she was by the public. Instead she caught wind of being disliked due to the crowd outside ruining it for all us viewers.
