The Go Team....

...a bit of energy at last :D :cool:

:o

tbh, most of it's just been a reminder of why I can't be arsed with a lot of music these days but I liked them :)
 
wot no psychic tv? :confused: It's an outrage! ;) I like go team but m.i.a should win as she be fab! then again, a kiss of death to a lot of careers... :(

Those Glasto pics are a happy reminder that I was somewhere else enjoying myself at the time, wondrously oblivious to their performance. I didn't even know they were playing :cool:

Pyramid Stage....what Pyramid Stage :D

They are/were pretty good.

Maybe, but the sudden level of betting on them looks a little bit dodge to me - there are vast sums going on and they're clear faves now. Could be one of the judges has sent a cheeky text to a select few while he/she is in the loo.

You were right. IT'S A FIX I TELL YOU!!!!

Who won the milky bar :confused: :D

Edit: Janeb and Silent Nate must have had insider information ;) :D

Further edit: Is the album any good then?

Even further edit: I liked him on Jools though...and tonight

And that's why I use Betfair. :D

Didn't win a vast amount in the end (too much tied up on MIA), but enough for a good night out at least.

Cheers dodgy judge (whoever you may be), we love you! xxx ;)
 
I hope the lad that recorded it all in his kitchen wins.

That or A&TJ.

The Kaisers can go stick their head in a pig.

A&TJ did win. I was well impressed with the fiddle guy who recorded in his kitchen though and will probably go and get the album now
:)

See you on the next BB thread. :)

Wish i'd followed your BB tips :) I tried to bet on the Mercury at the last minute, but had forgotten my login for Stan James....I go there 'cos there aren't many sites you can bet on the darts....

Edit: and i only do that for the World Darts. Won quite a bit this January :D

You bet on the darts!? :D :p

Nah, Betfair's the only way you can see all these last-minute rushes happening. Sometimes they're bollix, but you can imagine how corrupt the judges at the Mercury must be, only a matter of time before someone leaked it. :D

Edit - oh, well that's ok then. :)

I'm rubbish at sports betting - you do the next World Darts betting thread, and i'll sort the BB urban vs bookies stuff. :)

OK, Your on...but i still can't remember my Stan James login.... :D

Hmmm...must resurrect the darts thread :D
 
I've just realised that i said in post 5 that i though that if the judges go for a non commercial act it would be Anthony and the Johnsons.....

do i win a milky bar? :D

(I voted for MIA on the poll though cos i thought it was more likely :( )

Winning it can be a bit of a carreer killer for some people though...

I'd like to see MIA, The Go Team or KT Tunstall win, but it will probably be the Kaiser Chiefs or Bloc Party..

If they go for something not as commercial it will be Antony and the Johnsons
:)

Lisa Rocket wins 'cos she knows stuff, you know!!!!!
 
I'm up for 1/3rd of a milky bar, seems fair enough to me

Have loved this album for a couple of months and kicking myself that I only put a bet on today - still, better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. Also really liked the folk stuff, will be looking for that tomorrow I think.
