Eurovision

[belton rover]

I don’t know why we continue to send, as Macho said X Factor types. The lad last night was a half decent karaoke singer. I remember a few years ago Jonathan King (the less said about him the better) trying to improve things with little success.

My first memory of Eurovision is 1981 - Bucks Fizz. I was 10 and it was like winning the world cup. I’ve loved the occasion ever since, but it really is time to either call it a day or give it a bit of what they want to see.

  If they want the best pork pies,black pudding, mash and Gravy, and Tetley Bitter they will still come Syd.

Love the fact that some people think we should win Eurovision however bad a song we send and however badly sung it is. They sound like Man U fans thinking they should win every the PL every year just because they are Man U.

Welcome to Brexit Britain, pick up your free arrogance here...

Yep, they'll be wanting a re-vote next.

THis may come as a shock to you BB but apparently they have a new vote every year. It seems the Europeans dont believe that you have a vote once and then thats it - Puppet on a String is forever the winner - they believe that facts, opinions and tastes change and its good to let people have an annual vote to say what they think. Shocking eh.

I suggest you avoid it in future and stay at home with your Cliff Richard Greatest Hits, you'll enjoy it more that way.

Btw 4 out of 5 of our Eurovision victories have come under a Labour Governmeent - just saying like.

No but, yeah but, no but, yeah but......They are new votes, NOT re-votes!

Eeh Mr Wilts, tha' gets dafter.

By the way, many great songwriters are inspired to write their best stuff during hard times, such as under a Labour government.

Aye.

A Russian side managed by a German playing an Emirati side managed by a Spaniard. They'll be chewing their toes off in jealousy of the English game.

  They can't afford them Billy.

I thought the Germans supposedly ran the EU. Funny how the Brexit-bashing pro-EU voters only gave them three more points than us!

  Not very popular in the southern states Glyn, something about their state governments not that keen on coughing the money up for other countries every time.

So the conspiracy is that it's both pro-EU and anti-EU at the same time!
