But the thing is, those who you have said have already set an impression on the judges, and most of them will peak too early because we've been force fed them since the auditions, which will lose them fans and give them an early exit. Ruth has nothing spectacular to live up to, she can only gain fans.

Cant believe all of Cheryl's catogary is in the Top 3.

Betfair:

Laura- 3.9
Alexandra- 5.6
Diana- 7.8
Austin- 8.8
Eughan- 9.2
JLS- 11.5
Rachel- 12
Scott- 38
Ruth- 46
Daniel- 95
Girl Band- 310

Girl Band is doing very badly. But I seem to remember, Same Difference every single week until about Week 4/5 were at the bottom(of the odds) all the time. They were at 60/1-80/1 for ages... then punters finaly released that they were liked and then they were given strong odds,and landed 3rd place last year.

I think the same will happen to Ruth. Even though I'm always on about how you can't get an idea of what the public think from forums, she does have a vast amount of support on here, DS and youtube.

JLS - 11/1
Rachel - 12/1
Scott - 40/1

Seems that the bookies have no hope for Girlband, Danny, Scott or Ruth, but I think Scott and Ruth should have better odds personally.

I think its really make or break for Scott, and I think Ruth is going to begin to gather momentum. I think both will be around for a while yet.

Wow, the bookies are taking a risk with Laura's odds on the next elimination; I know it's not likely that she'll be out but it is Michael Jackson week, so I doubt that she'll be one of the strongest.

I hate Laura. Sorry to people that like her, but she is a a bad version of Alicia Keys in my ears.

I love Diana, her voice is so different, and Diva Ruth, is pure Sexy seduction with her voice.

In reality Cheryl's acts won't finish in top 3. One will go soon I reckon, it always happens with the faves, one goes early on. My bets would it being either Diana or Laura, because they have a split in their voters, wheras Alexandra will be overlooked.

As soon as one of the gilrs is in bottom two, the judges will ditch them to stop Cheryl from having 3 in the final. Just you watch.

They're going to have to massively up their game anyway if they don't want people to get bored or think they're getting worse. I think Cheryl will lose a girl quite soon. Not this week but in the next few weeks.

I know. I fear the public will get bored of Diana's quirkiness and unusual voice like they do with Singers (look at Anastacia, Macy Gray, Alanis Morissette, Kate Nash, Lily Allen etc)

I really hope Diana stays though, and Laura goes, she is nothing special, I don't see the fuss with her.

yeah but you also get the voters that vote only cheryl's girls because they want cheryl to win. (as stupid as that is, there are many people out there who vote like that, not on the talent)

But that can happen with any judge, also Cheryls acts are the best singers there.
