We all thought Ireland was complete shite.
Definitely a marmite tbf
I fucking pray Portugal somehow don't win this, The last time Portugal won anything we didn't get any sleep that night with mad Pedro next door shouting and crying down the phone to his relatives back in Portugal for hours on end :lol:
I hated That song when they won lol
I had forgot about that...Last thing Portugal won was football...The Euro's, Pedro was in his garden for hours...We couldn't shut the mad fucker up :lol:

Oh for fuck sake..The UK have only gone and given 12 points to Portugal....Pedro's probably cost himself 6 months overtime voting.

2 lots of 2 points picked up now, They certainly didn't deserve to be pointless from the countries voting.

I’m absolutely buzzing mate, Blue Jays we’re 7-1 and 8-3 down and ended up winning 10-8
I summoned the spirit of ‘Wadey’ when he beat Merv King in the masters.
It worked 🙂

The UK is hated in Eurovision. A guy in a pink skirt wins. I wonder if that will be popular here. :D

Switzerland have effectively won because off war sympathy votes to Ukraine and Israel. Croatia have been robbed on the Televote

What I mean is if Israel and Ukraine aren't at war Croatia win that tonight very comfortably with a monster Televote.

I have never thought in recent years that the voting has been fair in respect of the performing acts, For the UK to get zero points on the televote says it all really, And what really gets on my tits is when countries announce their 12 points and say...'To our neighbours'

I got the impression this year the jury vote was less dodgy than previous years but the element is still there.
To be honest the UK entry was shit.

That the UK entry got zero points from the public including countries like Ireland shows how much Brexit has done damage to the image of the UK.
Netherlands usually gave the UK some token points but they pulled out of the voting after the DQ.

Yep no shame lol

The jury vote has made it slightly better since they brought it back tbf. When it was 100% Televote the block voting was laughable.

I feel for Croatia tonight big time they have lost a song contest which is not meant to be political because of politics.

Its been political for years, What makes me laugh is all of the countries that have thousands that come to the UK to work etc and apparently love this country gave us fuck all, Just goes to show they are only here for the doe.
