Eurovision 2018

Ol' Donie

I'm at a loss.

This made no sense in about a million ways.

Why did they have 3 countries on screen when it was between two of them?

Why did they hand out the big chunks of votes last? Why not do that first and then do the smaller votes to build it up?

Why did they give the prize to the absolute worst song in the world? We shoukd send f*ckin June Rodgers next time.

Jesus that was the worst. The absolute worst.

backspin.

Im actually thinking of not watching Eurovision next year.

What a pike of crap as a winner.

I say the same almost every year.

A massive anti-climax

Welsh Megaman

TheQuietBeatle

She might get a banger walking to the stage.

I think the jury votes were fair enough the public votes ruined the thing as far as I'm concerned . Lacks complete transparency and you have songs the juries virtually ignored propelled to decent spots.

Terrible song won it , utter tripe .

Next year Eurovision in Israel.

Security will be good there, no stage invasions for sure.

Damien360

Shame. Some ok songs this year just missed out. Next year comes more comedy acts because of this ****e

lola85

Worst thing you could do here is try figure out what happened or why! We’ll be back same time next year having the same conversation!

RobertKK

Congrats Israel.

Harry Palmr

OMG! A speech and a half!

BorneTobyWilde

Security disaster next year.

Sardonicat

Seen it all. The Chicken Song won. The jury vote is utterly pointless.

Happy4all

Bookies will be thrilled with all the mug punters who backed Ireland.

road_high

What's the diversity angle? I know nothing about her

mistersifter

she's even more annoying when she speaks - didnt think that was possible.

Hande hoche!

The BDS are going to have their moment in the spotlight next year.

Well, I don't get it at all. I never thought Israel were gonna win from the get go... but here we are.

Can someone explain this televote?

how many times have I posted anti-climax ?

the jury is 50% so it's the school yard tradition of "next goal wins"

Israel were clear winners once the jury was handing out 200+ votes as they couldn't be caught unless those on the right hand side were going to get 400+ votes

Wheeliebin30

Just when you thought the world hated Israel.

Don’t be fooled.

leahyl

This must be the worst winner ever

Amirani

Jerusalem, thorny issue that...

Nabber

Seems like Euro

Yeah, Israel is Diverse....

Surreptitious

I am DISGUSTED with this charade and it's not about her being fat either, it was just AWFUL.

walshb

You’d wanna be fooking bonkers to be heading to Israel next year.

The Talking Bread

Some party in the Dingle's tonight! Pints of wingles all round!

Best worse song won

Just sing the Palestinian 'national' anthem next year for the easiest win ever

]Well done UK

allthedoyles

Might be nowhere to hold Eurovision next year if Iran have their way .

LizT

Can't wait to see the breakdown of votes.

Vladimir Poontang

Appalling ****e

riggerman

How did she win , what a crap act.

Ghost Train

Did RTE show what Irish public votes were?

BBC showed that UK gave us 10

Atlantic Dawn

Is there a KPMG lad or similar looking at the results for this?

Jesus that was the worst. The absolute worst.

Austria was the third country and was still in contention at the time.

Public votes all added together and given out last.
If done the other way around the result would have been the same.

I personally think it's more exciting end unpredictable this way.

Finally, it's only the Eurovision, no need to get so upset.

Boilermaker

Disappointed to see that there is still a few golden cats not working.

She whinged about her weight and struggles with it and body shaming in every interview I saw. Which are terrible things but I got the impression it was being milked which is far worse :mad:

Well, prepare to be disappointed. Ireland will take it's place at the contest.

Welsh Megaman

I prefer this Chicken Song...

It's just a laugh at this stage, innit?

bloodless_coup

Being fat isn't being diverse, it's just slovenly

wil

Cluck this

Mr.Nice Guy

Have they a big enough stadium to host it or will they have to demolish more Palestinian homes?

Nabber

I guess this is Europeans voting against Islam


Or maybe not. Song is pretty **** all the same.

I heard some of her song ... "Don't use me as a toy...."


You're all right there love, don't worry ...

Told yez.


Misandric lyrics.


#MeToo advocate ....


"Im a beautiful creature" in her lyrics when she is a fat disgusting pile of sh1t pig



"Don't use me as a toy" - Don't f*cking worry there love, I'd rather stick my bellend in the toaster.




This has all the hallmarks of "progressive" politics.


Black is white.


Water is dry.


Night is day
