    Yeah, they give them out in a big gloop

    So its like "112 votes to Cyprus" "127 votes to Australia" "no votes to UK" and so on

    There's obviously a clear bias against UK and Ireland in the Eurovision since the public voting days.

    What's the cause for this?

    English language? Are they envious of native english speakers and relate more to each other? Do they consider us more like the US than other europeans?

    Commercial success, like Westlife, Take That, Robbie Williams... are they envious of that? What is it due to?

    I heard of block-voting, but how do Israel fit into block-voting?

    Best ever Eurovision voting segment was back in the 90's when Switzerland won beating the UK to second place. Hosted in Ireland and Pat Kenny was one of the hosts. It wasn't until the very last vote was announced that it was decided and they won by 1 point.

    The singer was someone called Celine Dion. Wonder what happened to her?

    Was Israel singing ole ole ole?

    If Israel wins, thus is the stupidest thing that has ever, ever happened.

    Are you actually shocked? They were first/second favourites for weeks.

    It’s a song contest. Who gives a ****.

    We had the gay vote, but severely underestimated the fat vote.


  • Registered Users Posts: 614 ✭✭✭TheQuietBeatle


    Austria was good but sounded like it was copied to me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,675 ✭✭✭✭Ol' Donie


    Are you actually shocked? They were first/second favourites for weeks.

    So?

    It was utter, utter b*llocks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,480 ✭✭✭✭road_high


    Marty Whelan is ridiculous commenting on the voting- about thirty seconds behind the screen. Can he not see the bloody votes go up like the rest of us?

    The amount of block voting going on in the juries is hilarious. I can predict who the 12 points will go to before they even say it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,825 ✭✭✭Doctors room ghost


    Missed start of this why aren’t they voting 9


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,502 ✭✭✭spock.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,480 ✭✭✭AllForIt


    Actually, I though the Israel song was quite catchy.

    Just once I would love it if someone said


    "Hello Portugal, frankly we are rather disappointed with your hosting tonight.

    It was the weakest show for many years

    And our 12 points go to ... Ireland !"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    I remember absolutely nothing of the Austrian song except yer man in his rubbery clothes
