Still not capable of putting a rational arguement together yet Penny? Chris stated, as a fact, that there is going to be an offcom investigation. I have no problem with him posting that. He then posted, as a fact, not an opinion, that Rhydian's album would outsell Leon. He has no proof; there is no way any of us can know. Sleighron then posted that since Leon got more votes than Rhydian, he should sell more albums. That is a conjective arguement based on the quantitative facts at hand. I have no problem with Sleighron's statement; he neither posts it as a fact, nor expresses his own personal opinion, he just uses the facts at hand. Chris's post, which he is using as 'evidence' to back up the previous post, is then based on nothing more than hearsay, created by people who wanted Rhydian to win. The tone of it suggests Chris believes these rumours more than the quantitative facts supplied, yet he, nor anyone else, has any evidence to base these rumours on, other than a few people (both Rhydian and Leon voters) who got the engaged tone when they rang.For the third time, if you would like to put a comprehensive, logical arguement together I will more than happily discuss the situation with you. Any post based on vague rumours deserves to be treated with contempt; until evidence arrives to back those rumours up. Now run along back to mother and cry into her skirts. Do you know what you sound like ? I have encountered bullies before like you - stop being dictatorial, let other people have an opinion - they are entitled to it - whether you agree or not and stop jumping on people the minute they say something you don`t like. You are driving people off this board, so stop it Oh and by the way my mother died 6 months ago so I cannot cry into her skirts (much as I would love to)

Hate to burst your bubble but maybe you need to check out Digital Spy more.....................already been discounted as a load of rubbish by their reputable X Factor insider........who did in fact tell us on Saturday that Leon was ahead in the voting long before the result was announced ;D.............you guys need to get out more National Park`s post...... I can tell you categorically that that is a load of tosh. Heat have reached new depths of BS with that headline.
Leon started closing in a couple of weeks ago but only because an abnormally high number of bets were being placed on him north of the border. Even then, the bookies didn't realistically think he had a flea's chance in hell but they wanted to avoid more people laying bets at generous odds.

I think it may be time to lock this thread - the argument is going round in circles and people are getting personal

Is this the same insider that told you what songs Rhydian was going to sing, which you then posted here, and got wrong several times? That 'insider' may well be an insider, or it may be Fred Bloggs pretending to be an insider; you don't know, I don't know, nobody on DS knows, except for the poster himself. DS is no more and no less subject to the insanities of the online world than Haven is. You can be anyone you want at any time, and just because someone posts something or claims to be someone, doesn't mean they are. You cannot use what someone posted at DS as any kind of proof or evidence. The same goes for Heat, hence my request to know their source. And who am I driving off the board, exactly?

The DS insider is a member of the X Factor production crew (well respected over there and totally legitimate) and his information is always correct. And no, it was not from NP that we heard the song choices. Yesterday, after your latest outburst of playground bullying I had several PMs offering support and saying they had also been subject to your obnoxious bullying behaviour (along with your little cliquey back-up gang)

Yesterday, after your latest outburst of playground bullying I had several PMs offering support and saying they had also been subject to your obnoxious bullying behaviour (along with your little cliquey back-up gang) And there you go again.... How many times is that you've posted the same thing now? Not as many times as you've rudely slated Leon and the other X Factor finalists, but I'm sure you'll get there eventually. After all, it does seem to take considerable effort from you to change which ever record you're playing at that time. Oh, and still no logical arguement from you why Rhydian was so great and should have won....

Percentage-wise, I think more buyers will be Scottish. only around 33% of the physical sales are from Scotland so far
