I like the odds as much as the "babe" but how is that music video going to translate into a winning performance on the EuroVision stage?
A solo performance with a violin?

They had to qualify from the semi final on thursday night and i can assure you the performance then was really good. 10 countries out of i think 28 could qualify for the final with the 10 best finishers last year and the big four (ie countries that contribute most funding) uk france germany and spain. To get through in top ten out of 28 then people must have liked the performance to vote for them so in my book that makes them have public appeal which at this stage the public have not voted on the straight to final teams so they could bomb out!!! I'll try find the link to the qualifier performance I've had the 40's now ----------------- [ This message was edited by: PC on 2007-05-12 01:05 ]

Yeah, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I won't be having a punt - although I only normally bet on pool!

i know mate lol i do well on novelty bets, one of my best so far was a 50/1 bet on erikson to become england manager. (i'm selective i dont just bet anything i've only ever had 1 manager bet) Maybe someone will be offering odds at the bpppa event??????? On pool i've had a few naughty ones too with some help from The Rocket, backed luat a couple of years ago about 7-2 down to davis at nice odds and my boy won lol, and i got a nice little nine-fold and 9 eight-folds at the last ipt event. My only betting advice is if you have never done it DONT!!!!!!! [ This message was edited by: BigDave on 2007-05-12 01:38 ]

lol how sad am i though to now know what i'm doing saturday night???????? Moldova is the last song to be played which is another reason i think it might do well as it will be on peoples minds just before they vote!!!!!! It all depends now on the tactical voting how certain countries always give others maximum points even for a pants song!!!!! Argh i sound like a eurovision addict!!!!!! I just hope that this bet goes one better than my last bet about 5 years ago i think it was when my russia at 80/1 got beaten by two guys from i think denmark with beards!!!!!! i've checked and it was 2000........back when i worked for Hills.......lol (oh and the russians were fit too ) ----------------- [ This message was edited by: PC on 2007-05-12 02:16 ]

I love hearing of a good punt!

For some reason I have turned it onto BBC 1, and the UK entry is dire to say the least I guess this is the kind of music that people like though :S
