Not particularly, he gave a very weak performance.

In fairness though he's a kid and probably had no input down to his sock choice.

Still don't think we'll qualify but can't fault Brendan Murray at all. He did the best he could with the song he was given. He does have a fantastic voice, albeit one that would not be to everyone's taste. He deserved a better song.

Oh god make it stop San Marino

Hungary was a surprise - 150 to 1, worth an each way I think. Lots of neighbours.

I thought Brendan did well and the song is as good as anything else I've heard tonight. Fingers crossed for him

Honestly think that was the worst effort from Ireland ever, and I am including Dustin the turkey. That was shocking.

Time to give Uncle Louis the boot.

San Marino's fcukwittery is what they'll remember from the last 6 minutes hopefully for Brendan.
