General Official eurovision match day thread

Weird how the betting is. France and italy the favourites. Didnt really like either song. I can see why malta is up there.
 
Love the German entry.

"I Don't Feel Hate"

Still trying to change that historical narrative. Kinda diluted by the giant middle finger dancing about during it.

Absolutely robbed when it didn’t take place last year. This years entry isn’t quite as good enough but still the best of the bunch.

Turkish-style tootling seems to be the theme this year. Azerbaijan shoved a lot of it in there. San Marino did it best though.

Nil points for us.

Not surprised though. The song was terrible, he sang it badly and seemed to be wearing a cheap leather sofa. And we aren't exactly flavour of the month in Europe. Apart from that ...
 
The Eurovision mantra to obtain some points is ‘if you can’t be good, be memorable’. Think Russian grannies, Polish milkmaids, Netta and her Japanese inspired act, Bucks Fizz and whipping the skirts off, Chonchita Wurst and so on. All won or at least didn’t finish bottom because they were memorable.

I keep hearing ‘it wasn’t the worst song there’. But who is going to vote for a bang average song? You’ve got to offer a reason to vote for you and we don’t with whatever entry we put forward. Picking ‘that’ll do’ entries will see the UK come bottom all the time.

That said, finishing below that German entry though. Sweet bloody Nora ...
 
UK were 6/1 to get Nil Points tonight ..i was tempted but thought theres bound to be some berk who gives us a point :rolleyes:


Edit: bollox.....just saw......missed out on that one :mad:

It's the old Father Ted ruse. Enter a song so shite we can't possibly win and therefore don't have to foot the bill for hosting the next one[emoji6]

Altogether now....
"my lovely horse"
 
The European fans vote moved Italy in to first place, not the “official “panel, why oh why didn’t the brexit bill remove us from this as well, rather than wearing some form of leather smock , a white t-shirt with vote for Astra Zeneca might have got a few votes
 
This has given me an idea - how about the EPL adopts the Eurovision scoring system...the big six clubs pay to stage every game and then supporters of all 20 teams vote to decide who wins the league..

And the public vote for Liverpool - zero points....

Three of the ‘Big Five’ in the bottom three.

Announce the breakaway Eurovision Super League!

(In fairness, being part of the Big Five generally doesn’t get you anywhere. Germany, Spain, UK, France and Italy have a combined total of three winners since 1990. It’s been 31 years since Italy last won and it was 1977 when the French last won it. Our barren spell looks pretty minor in comparison!)

I reckon Liverpool would be popular among the public? More genuine than plastic Man U and the London clubs. Oddly,despite their ill gotten money I think Man City are actually quite well liked.

It pretty much is a Super League though!

The big countries put a tonne of money into the competition, and don't have to go through the qualification process that happens earlier in the week.
