i love james but i am concerned that if he wins then he might get the winners curse and flop after a little while like steve brookstein etc...

whereas sometimes people who finish 2nd fair better look at olly murs for example

That's my view too tbh.

'James and the Winners Curse', sounds like a Roald Dahl meets JK Rowling tale. I care not one jot for that fella, he's been forcibly shoved down our throats for the past 10 weeks similar to Tulisa with a saveloy.

Am I right that if he does win, he'll already have broken a "curse" in that he'll be the only (UK) winner ever to have previously been in the Bottom Two?

yes thats true

yes...
