I think there's a strong possibility of this happening on Sunday.

Ella has been getting worse week after week and the voting leak clearly reflects that she's got boring very quickly.

It's what I'm actually thinking now personally.

If Christopher hasn't been bottom yet based on his mediocrity he must have strong support that'll carry him a little while longer.

Jahmene and James both seem to be doing very strong and building up steam instead of losing it.

Union J will probably get a bounceback vote.

That leaves Rylan and Ella...

That would leave Tulisa with NO CHOICE but to send Rylan home.

Hmm, Tulisa voted Rylan off on week 1.

If Louis had voted for it as a singing contest in week 1, would Carolynne really gone far? I want to say yes, but with Gary as her mentor, probably not.

Christopher has the momentum, so Ella is in trouble.

Will a rebound vote really be enough for Union J? I have doubts.

I do get the impression Ella isn't doing as well as they might like though. And it does feel like Rylan has run his course, Chris has become the shows talking point now anyhow.

Union J will find themselves in the bottom 2, without a doubt. They are crap.

Its a very strong chance if voting leaks are true and UJ get a bounce back vote

Replacing who? Christopher will get more votes than them.

The voting leak will help Ella as now people know she may be in trouble - the voting leak was about the weeks before but on Sunday she still wasnt in the bottom two, I thought the week before was one of her worst so maybe she dipped in the voting. I think she will be ok now. Rylan is in trouble and I think Chris will begin to loose support - there has been so many negative stories about him and I can see him having a 'good' week, the judges will give him good comments and people will think he's safe - they usually do this when its time to get rid of somebody.

No. Quite simply, she didn't have a fanbase. I would have been really surprised to see her bounce in Week 2 if she had survived.

This is the conclusion I've come to aswell. It'd be fantastic if Rylan could outlast her

I think a lot will depend on the performance this week, any of them could end up in the bottom two realistically if they don't have a great performance night as proven in previous series.

James v Rylan bottom 2, the script has already been written

Ellas gone off the boil, im waiting for her to deliver like she did for the first 2 weeks!. That said if she can somehow pull it off this weekend and put in a performance just like in the auditions then she can save herself for another week

Ella B2 if voting leaks are true

I think it could be James, Ella and Rylan in the mix

an Ella vs James bottom 2 would be very interesting

If it's Rylan and Ella in the bottom 2, it's curtains for Rylan. Gary, Tulisa and Nicole will most certainly save Ella. Nicole will return the 'favour' to Tulisa after she kept Rylan in against Kye.




Yeah right:yawn:

I'd like to see her and James in the bottom two, get rid of one of the bores. They would obviously save the Adele wannabee.

I think Union J are safe in a bottom 2 decider against almost anyone. Syco can see the 1D $ signs

I genuinely don't see how they would be able to justify sending Ella, Jahmene or James home over Union J. I think that would be a stretch too far, even for XF.

Obviously if Union J come up against Rylan or Christopher, they're safe.

But this is X Factor

Nicole would vote her own act out?!!!

Rylan in Bottom 2 this week, he's gonner, except if Christopher is there - which aint gonna happen.

Ella v James would be some drama though, but suspect it will be boring Rylan vs UJ, no bouncy bouncy for them.

Agreed, only person Rylan would be saved over is Chris (or Union J, if he's really, really lucky and both Tulisa and the general public are feeling generous). So, as entertaining as it would be to see an Ella vs James bottom two, the more likely combo would be Rylan vs Union J. And I'm guessing Rylan will go. Oh well, at least his fortune teller hit the mark.

Is this the week they start doing 2 songs? Traditionally that's the week that kills the novelty act so I think Rylan is 100% cert for bottom two and unless Christopher joins him he's gone.
