hey guys,

I was particually gutted last night that Laura went, one reason being that i thought she was great!

But most importantly i was gutted because the next few weeks are so predictable now! Rachel,Daniel,Ruth i think will go in the next three weeks, then Alex/Jls will come fourth/third and it will be Eoghan V Diana in the final with Diana winning.

Laura imo was Dianas only main competion, i know she was only about 80% there some of the weeks but if she had pulled it together and was able to do songs that suited her funky style, i think she would have been the only one left who was a real threat to diana winning.

None of the others left are a threat, the over 25s will be all out in the next few weeks. JLS will never win, and Alex although very talented, is jsut missing some marketability/likeability factor.

Therefore i think it will be Diana (the chosen one) vs Eoghan(imo the only other contestant that cowell would like to give a contract to, as the tweens and teens will love him)...with Diana winning.

what do you guys think??

The papers were right, they said Ruth would be in trouble, they also said that Laura wasn't getting much votes either. Diana will win, Eggnog second, and JLS third.

I'm not so sure the final is as predictable as some suggest.

God I hope not, how boring :yawn:

As long as Alex and Diana make the final, and either win I will be happy

I liked Laura most of the time but she obviously wasn't massive competition to Diana as she got less votes than other contestants who've never been a threat to Diana in the past.

I like Diana's individuality and enjoyed her Blondie performance, but I don't like it when she sings in an affected accent. For the same reason, I wasn't keen on Laura's swan song last night. I'd get rid of Rachel, Daniel and Diana in the next 3 weeks, in any order, but it will be Ruth rather than Diana who gioes.~

Agreed that Alex doesn't have the "X Factor" to edge it - then again I didn't think Leona did. (It would be harder for Alex to win now that Leona already has though!)

However, I do think that along with Eoghan, JLS are in with a shot. Excuse me for bringing up Barack Obama and JLS in the same breath again, but this year we've seen the first black president elected, so I don't see why a group couldn't win XF for the first time too. I have grown fond of JLS but I tend to be realistic about the chances of acts I support, and I don't think JLS are out of the running yet.

Eoghan doesn't seem to be as much of a talking point as either Diana or JLS, and he is as unpopular as he is popular although personally I do like him. Gareth Gates and David Archuleta (AI7) only made it to 2nd place and I can see it happening again with Eoghan, but Simon may stand by him at least to begin with.

I doubt Diana has it in the bag while 7 acts still remain. Ben Mills seemed likely to win XF3 for a long time and right up until the finale Rhydian seemed a dead cert to win last year. (Many people still believe he should have done, including me but he'll do well anyway.)

Although I don't always find Diana's voice easy on the ear, she wouldn't be a bad winner as she's distinctive and relevant. She'll need help learning how to look after her voice but I'm sure she'll get it regardless fo where she finishes

I can see Ruth makingit the furthest of all the over 25s, as she deffo has the most likeability and has given some v good performances but i would see her at 5th at a push third but i deffo see eoghan and diana of her.

Would be great if she stays for a while though i do like her

I can see a Diana v Eoghan final too. Hopefully things won't be predictable though. It's been pretty unpredictable so far with Austin and Laura going home, so hopefully some more shocks will lie ahead.

I dont mind Eoghan and i thought he was very good last night but i had always wanted a Diana v Laura final as i thought they were the best two contestants.

As for JLS i do like them but i havent seen anything special from them to be honest! As far as x-factor groups go i thought G4 and Eton road were far better but who knows maybe they will surprise me!

I just wish they would turn down the backing tracks on JLS performances and allow us to hear them sing and harmonize , i would love to hear them do some motown tbh.

JLS will win , Diana second and Eoghan third. Alexandra will be the "semi final shock exit" this year.

I dont think Alex not making the final though will be a shock. She definintely is talented and is prob the most consistent performer but she doesnt have the same likeability as Eoghan or Diana and although i dont get JLS it seems they do have lots of fans so i would think Alex is most likely gonna be 4th unless JLS royally f up in the next while.

There is something seriously wrong with the public if Eoghan makes the final let alone wins.

If its Diana vs Eoghan in the final, Diana has got to win otherwise the whole series will have been a total waste of time. :yawn:

The fact Eoghan is 'cute' will gaurantee him the votes, if he was ugly then he would have got nowhere because he has an average voice.

I think this is right. It is very predictable this year. Diana and Eoghan final with Diana winning. (JLS being the third finalist in third place).

Either way those are the final three with no surprises along the way.

Aside from Laura being out, which was quite a swing of public opinion, somehow - the voting seems to have been kinda consistent. Diana, Eoghan, JLS way ahead, Alex and Ruth not quite as popular, and Rachel and Daniel who the public would usually have voted out being saved by sympathy campaigns or crying, or the judges completely ignoring how bad they are. It sounds more like the plan is to get some of the better singers out the way now to make getting to the final a bit easier for their chosen finalists.

I'm sure within the next week or two the judges will suddenly wake up to how out of tune and badly performing Rachel and Daniel are and then will start calling Alex a one trick pony, etc etc. I'm thinking Diana Vs Eoghan with JLS third as well.

Also in agreement!

If Eoghan is in the final, my face will =

I would love Diana V Ruth or even Diana V Alex.
Please, please, get Eoghan out folks. I know he's got that cute thing going on and yada, yada, yada but let's not lose any more stars. Please?

Surely it's the opposite? If Laura can go out, then anything can happen?

It is, as always, up to the judges..........\By which time, too much real talent has gone normally

Ruth is the only cross genre act this year, powerful and passionate, she WILL be a big European star, mark my words.

She has to avoid the botom two for the rest of the show to win in my opinion. Having been there twice already I think if she was there again she would be in a lot of danger.

I can't see how you can say that at this early stage, even though it sounds a likely final 3 the way things are going. I'd like to see the final between Ruth, Alex and JLS, and would ultimately like JLS or Ruth to win.....either would be a good result.

People are really underestimating Eoghan's support. He's this year's Leon, mark my words

what do you guys think??
If she was Diana's only main competition why was she in the bottom two last night??

All the Laura fans coming on here complaining about her being voted off are saying she was a potential winner, but obviously the general public don't feel the same as otherwise there's no way she'd be in the bottom two.
