Tune in at 1.45 tomorrow...

"Joe, it's the same sh1te every year, and it's not working... And that f**king Louis Walsh, Joe... Why is he always involved in it.. Tell me that, Joe.. We need to send a ballad like Butch Moore's song".

Marty's not happy I'm just waiting for him to add a few curses into his rant there

Maybe now they'll learn not to let Louis Walsh, Linda Martin etc near this in future... oh who am i kidding.

I am supporting Belgium anyway.

Ursus Horribilis

Change the script Marty

Austria is the last one.

It's official; Brendan did not make it. Hard luck to him.

Welsh Megaman

Tee hee...

Croatia are through and not Ireland

I'm shocked!!!!!!!!

How could this happen?

It's a complete mystery. But Macedonia were robbed - best actual song on the night.

Romania is my back up.

This is a myth. Look at the list of winners over the last 10 years.

Awww - disappointed for Brendan.

4 years in a row we haven't qualified for the final​ - time to go back to Jedward ?

Our song this year wasn't up to scratch, it's that simple. It was really bad and forgettable.

Marty says pipped to the post but I'd be shocked if Ireland weren't in the bottom 2 of the overall scoring from this group. So dull.

The song was just so boring.

Or Dustin or a Leprauchán?

Love how gutted Marty is even though we send utterly boring acts every single year.

alan partridge aha

Poor song didn't deserve to make it.

Oh well. No big shock we didn't qualify. I do think Brendan is a talented lad but he needs better songs.
Biggest surprise was Estonia, and I'm ok with that as I hated their song. Didn't foresee Croatia qualifying at all!
I feel bad for Macedonia, I thought they deserved a spot in the final.

ah we will show em all in the soccer what us irish are made off lol

freshpopcorn

Delighted for The Netherlands!

Welsh Megaman

Roll on Saturday!

My money's on Portugal

Marty saying well done to Brendan for his efforts.

Bloody hell.

He sang 'Dying to Try' but 'Tried to die' was more what happened.

leahyl

Poor Brendan, he really was dying to try but couldn't quite get there....

RTE need to seriously rethink how they pick their songs. Surely someone like Louis Walsh or any of the famous Irish bands would be happy to assist in picking a song.

Marty is very good at the pretend upset

JP Liz V1

Why do Ireland even bother trying anymore, I think we could send Bono dueting with Saoirse Ronan on a dance track wearing just duct tape and wouldn't qualify
