Default Do you think Leon would have still beat Rhydian if he wasnt Scottish?
No offence to any Scottish people out there but its a stereotype that the Scottish stick with there own when it comes to reality tv shows.

Anyway do you think Leon would have still beat Rhydian if he wasnt Scottish? I dont know as I think the teenage girls and Rhydians hatebase was always gonna make it hard for Rhydian to beat Leon,I think Rhydian might have edged the win though.

What a load of mince - no offence JF - I think the Scots are are quick as anyone to declare someone rubbish - and probably all the more so if they are Scottish!! Think Michelle McManus, most of the Scots that were on BB etc..

I couldn't stand Rhydian - but I didn't really rate Leon either - one was as rubbish as the other imo.

Tbh I think its only about 5% that are like that in Scotland,which was enough to swing him past Rhydian I think.

I think what really swung it for Leon and I have to say I did like his voice but once he sang with Kylie,I think that went a fair way to flooding more votes to him.I believe it was a very close result though that year.

I didn't vote for either, and I'm Scottish.

Im Scottish and still don't get how Leon beat Rhydian! It's ridiculous to suggest that Scots will only vote for fellow Scots to win.

Im not saying you but there was a discussion between me and my friends today about it and we was wondering if it could be the case.

Im sorry if I offended any Scottish person on here,especially if your not like that either.

it's not as if Rhydian didn't benefit from some similar Welsh supporters so yes

You havent offended any Scots, you have complimented them.

Made me PMSL though. Fancy thinking the Scots as a nation would club behind anyone and spend loads of cash voting for them on a phone poll. Do be serious! This is the land of short arms and deep pockets.

I think given the population difference between Scotland and the rest if Britain, there would have to be a very high percentage of Scots who would only vote Scots, which I really doubt.

No offence taken anyhow
