Has there been a more pathetic category ever? I doubt it.

Blimey, for a guy who owns the format.... He must have known he has got the short straw of it all.

Or perhaps he doesn't care because he knows a girl is going to win it this year?

P.s. Those man boobs on show on the xtra factor scared me!

I think the girls last year were the weakest category ever but yeah the boys this year come pretty close.

Yup very weak this year. Austin is the only half decent one in it but his crying is really starting to annoy me and others.

I agree - there's no one in his group that I think is brilliant. Such a big mistake to bin Liam IMO - that lad is fab!

No. I'm sorry this year's boys take the biscuit. Sharon could have had a great girls category..... But she chose the wrong people to be in her top 3.

Simon had little or no choice. Austin and Mali are the only ones that stand out for me.

It would appear that he doesn't want to win this year, so it isn't a problem.

Liam, Alan and Austin would have been a better trio.

The boys don't need much/any talent to get far. Austin and Eoghan will probably still be the final 2. Talent means s*d all.

To be fair to him he had a really bad set to pick from.
Alan was never going to be popular with the suspicion about him lying and Liam couldn't actually sing. Mali should have got through instead of Eoghan though.
Austin is disliked for his crying but he is the best singer even if he is utterly detestable, Scott is pretty nondescript and a relatively good singer and Eoghan... Well I guess he might get the 'Awww' vote?

I'm quite shocked he chose who he did.

I think we will see his category going out fairly early - they do seem the weakest.

Innit!
It wasn't necessary to show that!!!!

Austin's a very good singer i just don't like him, so i can see him lasting longer than people expect

Hmm not the most powerful of singers.

However I think if Austin? (the one who cries alot) can hold it together he will be liked alot.

He's the best out of the three.

I think Simon knows Austin will make it far in the contest, so it was just a case of making up the numbers with the other two positions. Eoghan over Mali was ridiculous but predictable. Scott was a bit of a surprise but neither of them have ever been stand-out.

The Girls (top 3) last year (bar Alisha), I think they were given a rough deal but in stats terms I don't think the boys will come close this year. 2 in the top 6 is my prediction with Scott out early.

2 in bottom two week 1 (1 out)
1 in bottom two week 2
1 withdrawn in week 3 (2 out)
Alisha safe in week 3 and 4
Alisha out in week 5 in seventh place whilst the other three judges still had 2 acts each!

I think we may be surprised if we bump this thread up after the final as the winner might be from this category , unfortunately.

Liam and Mali would've been a better choice rather than Eoghan and Scott. Eoghan's too quiet and Scott's too cheesy.

Austin was an obvious choice as he is probably the best singer of the 6 boys this year (which says it all about how bad the boys have been), although he's really getting on my wick. He just CRIES!!! Cries when he does well, cries when he does badly. God forbid he ever wins... he might just dehydrate. Then again, same goes for when he gets voted off.

The girls are definately far better this year. To be honest the final three could well be Diana, Laura and Alex.

The crying was ridiculous tonight. When he got through he really stepped it up a level didn't he? Give me a break... :yawn:

I'm sorry I'm not sure of all the names as yet but I kind of liked the tall boy with spiky dark hair. I really think he should have gone through.
Although I think the 16 year old is so cute, I wonder if he will pull of an unique and entertaining performance each week.
I hope I am proved wrong.

I'll predict the winner will either be Eoghan or Austin. Week 1 of the live shows will be interesting. If a girl gives a bad performance - chances are that she's out. However if a boy has a bad week next week, he'll probably survive.

It depends how often you post. I plan to have a massive party in 2043 when I hit my 5000th post
