I wonder what Simon Cowell would have done, if the Conway Sisters had walked?

Probably held a backstage party with the other contestants! I get the impression the Conways are not very popular...

Laura was visibly upset on Saturday night after the judges comments........I felt sorry for her.

If this is true - and I did notice that she didn't feature in the inbetween show on ITV2 although her sisters were there - then its about time she grew up. If she thinks criticism here is bad she wants to see the crap that will be written about them if they ever do get a record deal. People will be queuing round the block to bring them down one way or another.

Simon was only telling the truth, and if she can't take it better get out now before it gets worse.

Best not to vote for them again then, not fair to build their hopes up

Are you stalking me?

I can't vote this week - my mobile is seeking counselling and is currently going through detox.

I bet The Conway Sisters are in this week's first four.

The producers will want them gone ASAP.

Is there a possibility that they are actually better than what we've heard so far? I mean if they really haven't had any choice in the matter and these songs are just so wrong, it could be possible, couldn't it?

And hey, before you all slate me, I'm not a Conway Sisters fan. I'm simply playing Devil's Advocate or something to that effect.

Actually I think they have got better each week. I didn't rate them at first and still don't think they are anything special apart from nice girls with decent voices.

But, in their position, I would have wanted to smack SC on Saturday as they said they had tried so hard with the song. But they need to take the rough with the smooth and if they can't they shouldn't be there. Quitting is the cowards way out and if that's how Laura feels then all she is doing is showing that SC should have put another act in instead of them!

Having to put together a harmony in less than a week, and then being landed with a backing choir. It's not going to help them.
Backing singers of any kind are always a bad idea, think about it both Andy and Brenda have been backing singers in the past, as Rowena from the last series. To be a backing singer you have to be able to sing well, and adapt to any style. Not something you behind you if there's any doubt about your own ability. On the other hand you really need to rehearse with them if you're going to use them.
The only way the Conways have a chance is to change the lead singer, have the other three as the backing group, and totally refuse to have any other backing singers. They also need to insist that if possible they do material that they've done before, or at least have a familliarity with. The question is how many groups has Simon managed?

thats pathetic.
They deserve to go this week instead of Chenai so they should just be greatful simon said what he did as it gave them the "sympathy" vote.
In fact the yshould be greatful simon put them in his final 4 acts in the first place.
If they are going to turn on him now im sure it'll just make him slate them even more on the live shows.

what is the girls name who is the main leader?, anyway i think she will do better without the other grils, she should of gone without them and she would of made it all the way.

I bet The Goneway Sisters will change there minds and give it a shot, and after the x-factor we will never hear from them just like Steve.

to be honest i cant see them lasting much longer anyway. Simon doesnt seem to have much faith in them and they are 2nd favourite to go this week. I think they only wayt they would stay is if they were up against Chico (thus louis having the final vote)

Whilst I agree with most of the comments I have to point out that Laura (the blonde/stroppy one) actually has a better voice than marie (the skinny annoying one) Laura does add something to the group but at this moment in time is being overshadowed by her sister.
I agree that she should have kept her thoughts to herself until they were away from camera, however I guess it would be very hard to bite your lip and pretend everything is ok.
