Just thought I'd get a thread going after tonight's injustice. What do you think are X Factors most unfair exits due to judges decision and deadlock (Not bottom of the voting near the end.)

Jade Ellis: They had no valid reasons when voting her out, even though she trashed Union J in the sing off.

Treyc Cohen: I thought she was one of the best sings X Factor had seen but sadly destroyed by song choices. Should have stayed over Katie though, who couldn't even complete her song without 'sodding it.'

Lucie Jones: No words.

Melanie Masson: I weren't over keen on her Save Me song, however I thought she had the best voice this season and should have stayed over District 3.

Carolynne Poole: I weren't a fan of her, thought she came across really arrogant but after her sing off, she should have been saved against Rylan.

Ruth Lorenzo.

The fact that Eoghan Quigg and Diana Vickers beat Ruth with their AWFUL performances in 2008 was a crying shame. To refresh memories, this was the night Eoghan done a High School Musical song and Diana murdered 'Everybody Hurts' and yet both survived while Ruth (who sang a Bon Jovi song full of passion) was eliminated by just over 1%.

All 4 of the eliminations in this series, yes MK-1.

Lucie Jones.. I agree there really are no words at all.

Ruth wasn't booted by the judges/deadlock

Sorry guys, I meant just acts that have gone home due to judges decision or deadlock. I agree with Ruth Lorenzo though but I liked Diana.

I also thought Laura White and MK1s eliminations were unfair, but neither them or the act they were against deserved to be bottom 2.

With Jade v Union Jade more fresh in my memory I think that Gary in particular made a stupid excuse about not knowing if Jade wanting it more than he wanted for her (or something along those lines) because Jade blantanly wanted to go far as she could so don't know why Gary was unsure of that. But it was clear also that he wanted to see union j more so Jade stood no chance even before the sing-off.

Melanie Masson, Rachel Adedeji, Lucie Jones, Kitty Brucknell, and Maria Lawson based on being better than who they were up against.

Laura White shouldn't have been in the bottom in the first place.

Mary Byrne shouldn't have been in a sing off in the first place...

Yeah that was a rubbish reason in my opinion how does he know how much she wants it. Some people don't like to show all of their emotions in public.

Maria by a mile. No other decision comes close.

Mary Byrne. If that didn't dispel all myths about the show having any fairness or scruples at all then nothing ever would!

Janet Devlin as well- why did they show her forgetting her words in the voting recap?

Kimberley Southwick-starting the show earliar than was scheduled meant most people tuned in late and missed her performance entirely

Carolynne Poole, Melanie Masson, Jade Ellis, Rachel Adedeji, Lucie Jones all also victims of idiotic producer voting.

She had a fair exit? Ruth beat her in the sing off and that was the end of it.

I think it was right she went out of the two of them as Ruth was better in the sing off, but they should never have been the bottom 2 in the first place. The public got it wrong that night rather than the judges. They saved the better of two very good singers.

I don't think deadlock is ever unfair.

It eliminates the act with the least votes, what's wrong with that?

No I completely agree, however a lot of theories suggest that the producers know the bottom and allow the judges to know who it is, in bid to keep who they think'll be most 'entertaining.' The whole Carolynne incident adds to that theory. It was all so fishy. If its true the deadlock is completely pointless.

Really surprised people are saying Laura White. I remember the week she was in the bottom 2 she sang Endless Love, her performance was poor. She very much deserved to be in the bottom 2, and the she was thrashed in the sing off by Ruth Lorenzo.

If anything it's a rare example of a completely fair exit when the better person stayed instead of the person who had been pre-ordained to go further.

Tonight was tragic, seeing someone who obviously could do nothing to save herself, not even a performance as good as that made a difference.
