Edit: I didn't actually see much of the show but it should be said that Chris is from Kirkdale, which is actually near Everton but is not Everton. They are both districts within the city of Liverpool. My guess is that one of the production bods, whilst driving near to his house has spotted an 'Everton, City of Liverpool' sign just a couple of hundred yards away and noted it in his little black book. And as has already been pointed out: he did well to get so far. None of us on here expected it and I'm sure Chris didn't either. |

They even got the voice over guy in on it! He could barely muster up the energy to say Christopher maloney!

Taken on its own, that really wouldn't have cost him many votes. The scousers really do not take it as seriously as, say Glasgow Celtic and Rangers. There are no religious or political dimensions to their allegiances, just football.

Yes, football isn't like life and death. It's much more serious than that... I think I've heard that said somewhere. Anyone who thinks that scousers don't vote along Liverpool/Everton lines when the information is given to them, I would suggest, is denying the truth. If the alleigance is not revealed then support would be drawn from all quarters. It is simple folly to claim that the information would have done anything to increase his support. It could only possibly either have no effect or a detrimental effect on his support.

I thought for once the panel were at least a bit respectful towards Chris recognising that he did have a lot of public support.
But then that talentless Caroline Flack spoiled it by getting her childish digs into Christopher as usual on the Xtra Factor. She wants to secure a job the next Xtra Factor season. Chris was never in the bottom two and although he was my winner out of the three finalists and I shall buy his album, he went out of the competition at a very respectable third place but it was in my opinion the right time for him to go. I don't know about the politics in Liverpool as regards the football teams but not everyone who voted for Christopher comes from Liverpool. A lady in the VT said what I thought. People do like to sing along to to classic songs and don't particularly like the songs to be messed about with. Nicole did a fabulous job in picking the right songs at the right time. Well done to her for that. James was absolutely phenominal when he sang "Feeling Good" and that is the first time I have really liked his singing. Jahmene also stepped it up a gear to prove that he does have a very wide vocal range. It's a shame they both had to shed tears in their VTs. Maybe James doesn't realise that most of us have lived in rotten bedsits or sofa surfed at some part in our lives.

I believe the votes have been tampered with, not a chance Jahmene got more votes than Christopher.

Another conspiracy theory! Utter Tosh.

very good post. The producers and the rest of the scum involved think now that he has gone it is all ok. Chris is taking is time to think about what has gone on. He could bring the show to his knees with half the stuff people did not see. He has plenty of offers from papers to give his side of the story. I wouldn't blame him one bit, they think the offer of a tour is going to keep them quite. Think again .

Saying that Liverpool didn't vote Chris because the VT said Everton is like saying the North East won't vote James because he is from Boro and not Newcastle, Sunderland etc.. !!
So its flawed and the Chris theories get more and more bizzare. ![]() Of course it has an effect, not much of one though I don't think. |

I didn't even know Everton is anything to do with Liverpool and I'm a bloke. What about all the women who watch XFactor?

Clever would have been to jettison him as a human cannonball from the stadium.

The other two had sob story VT's, he didn't. The mic incident must have picked up a few extra votes for Jahmene.
He had lukewarm/bland critique from the judges. And during the first performance the camera panned to the judges faces and from the look of it none were enjoying it. The duet was a little lacklustre and he didn't have any moments during it. His timing was terrible when he was singing together with Gary. Plus his votes were decreasing from previous weeks and it was his time to go. |

The James bedsit moment was nauseating. It looked completely contrived and won't have gained much sympathy. When my business failed I lived in much worse, on a blow up mattress in the corner of an office. Get over it lad.

I actually thought the sneaky part was that they allowed his microphone to be switched on all the way through his performance and for that matter Jahmene too , that was so manipulative .
