The op's obsession with hating Tulisa and Kelly and the failed attempts at trolling.

GG, the outrage locally was massive. He was originally charged with attempted murder, but the charge was reduced when he agreed to give information about his co-accused. It was a particularly nasty attack which shocked the whole area. No way was he someone who could be considered even remotely a role model.

If the rumours of Frankie's cocaine taking are true he had to be "dumped", and as for the convicted criminal in Nu Vibe...

Giving a young lad a second chance is a good thing, but glorifying him on TV is not the way to do it.

16. Bringing back 4 rejects.

17. Asking the public to vote for them before the show and expecting us to really care.

Sure there will be more after the 1o'clock news conference.

Some more I can think of - they're not necessarily production shambles and some are just demonstrative of the ridiculous performance of some of the judges this year:

* Louie not initially giving a place to Sami, and then in the very first week putting her through over one of his original four (Jonjo). I agreed with his decision in the first live show but still, talk about going back on your decision and changing your mind.

* The general hypocrisy of Gary Barlow - 'I'd never say something like that to one of his acts' - when he has countless times.

* 2 Shoes pregnancy - conveniently brought up for the first time in the first live show and then whoops, they're gone!

* Tulisa getting rid of the only original 'group' from her four in the first week leaving her with an entirely constructed category.

* Going over to poorly Kelly via telephone - heck even the call-ins on Xtra Factor utilise Skype. Why not have her on standby only if needed, it was very hokey. Tulisa, Gary and Louis all would have booted Sophie off so it wouldn't even have been needed.

* Bringing in a pointless guest judge and not really utilising her in any shape, way or form - she didn't get a vote, why not just reduce it to a 3 strong panel like they did in auditions etc. last year when Danni or Cheryl were unavailable.

* Marketing it as 'The Next Generation' of judges and yet still having them adhere (badly) to the same scripted fallouts and faux drama.
