I just seen the listings for Soccer AM in the sky+ and it says Craig is on the show today.Not sure if this is still the case as I thought the celebs spent all day at the BBC preparing for the show

I will keep you posted if he turns up Sky 106 or 401

Hes on after the break.Should be good.Check it out

Wouldn't this post be better off on his Appreciation thread where you might find people who are actually interested?

I wonder if the manner of his exit from Corrie this week will hinder or help his chances. Depends how hated the Rosie Webster character is, I guess.

Well from looking at the show he is going to try and get the nerves out the way tonight by thinking he is on Soccer AM.He also says he is deffo from Blackpool and that he is desperate o dance there as it has a springy floor

I'm sure he will now get the Soccer AM vote for tonight

I watch Soccer AM but I wouldn't vote for him unless he vastly improved. His dancing is awful and I cringe watching him. But then, I'm one of those strange people who'd vote for the dancing rather than the sleb or their pro partner.

How's his football?

Better than his dancing (his words) so glean from that what you will!

He's a Liverpool fan - lots of beach ball jokes on Soccer AM this morning.

He's a nice guy but he reminds me of Ross from friends, he takes an age to get a few words out I loose the will to live when he speaks and im like just spit it out fgs.

So does any Liverpool fan and Blackpool fans now going to get behind Craig for tonight?

Best not start that one, Ricky Whittle supports Man UTD and they may have slightly more fans

Man Utd are also disliked by many, many people so that could work against him also.

Yeah, but do they show Strictly in all of the countries where the ManUre fans live?

Yes but at the moment if Ricky gets the Man Utd fans and Craig gets the Liverpool fans then they will be 1 & 2 in the order and will be in the top 2 with the public.

This would help keep Craig in for a bit longer.Its not like at the moment Craig is fighting with Ricky for the bottom 2.So as long as he gets the Liverpool fans behind him then he may get another few weeks for Blackpool

As Craig doesnt come from Liverpool or play for either of their clubs, I can't really see football influencing this one Bhoy.

His plea to get to Blackpool worked wonders last week (and might make him safe for another week), but a voter will only wilfully be manipulated so far...

So people (mainly men- sorry girls!) who are REEEAALLY into football will be voting on strictly in droves?? S'Funny cos thats NOT how I imagine the Strictly demographic to be...

That made me laugh! As a Baggies fan, most of us actually come from, and live in the same area. I cannot imagine travelling thousands of miles to go to a home game.

Yay - there's 2 of us! Nice to meet a fellow Baggie, Poppy!

Well as a Celtic fan I would always vote for a Celtic fan in a reality show if I new he was a fellow bhoy.I also would never vote for a currant bun either

I'm sure most guys on here who follow football would think like me so the Liverpool vote could be crucial tonight for Craig

Bhoy just answer this one question.

If you didn't have a bet on Craig would you be posting about him on here?

Yay! I bet you live close to the ground too?

I have £30 on a win for us today.

I live about a 30 minutes drive away from the Hawthorns - I actually work about 10 minutes away though.

My mum went to the primary school opposite the ground and used to watch the players warming up (back in Bobby Robson's days). She's the reason I'm a Baggies fan. She was born within a 2 minute walk from the East Stand.

Enjoying the season so far although we need to get back on the winning track don't we? Let's hope you get your £30 - drinks are on you if you do. I'll see you in The Woodman later.

LOL, I met my husband there! Wolves have just got one back btw.

I will pm you my mobile and buy you a drink later then.

What I want to know is, why is Craig a Liverpool supporter when he comes from Blackpool? Lots of people do not seem to support their local team. Curious.

Craig's father is a Liverpudlian.

Craig.


Kelly.


It doesn't get much more Scouse than that. The secret's in the name.
