# I'm sure they all were bloody shite
I heard (in the pub) that Ireland came last and that was no surprise, but where did UK come? I know the rest were bound to be crap...but Serbia? Jesus! Crack was on the cards last night.

# We were just ahead of Ireland I think.
Yup, Serbia was fucking shite. Another b3tan described the singer as looking like a lesbian emo schoolkid. I voted for Finland again.

# I voted for sweden
they had a very pretty lad singing a rip off of "son of my father" by chickory tip

Ireland were utter shite, a complete embarrasment. I mean it wasn't even proper fiddlydee music, when they upped the tempo it was still plodding, the backing musicians should have had a few pints in them before they started playing and the dana lookalike they had singing couldn't even fake playing a bodhran properly, she's obvoiusly not given many hand jobs. UK were awful, as expected. but serbia? FFS.....

# ireland do everything they can

Is Harold Shipman doing bookings now?

That'll stop him hanging around.

# i think
they should get someone to perform my lovely horse
although there's a danger of the comedy of it causing it to win

# UK came second to last
We would have been last if it weren't for Malta. Nice Irish gave us points too.

# it's because the uk doesn't have 17 neighbour countries, unlike most other european states
xenophobia actually produces result based on the quality of the music (with the exception of this years irish entry obviously, that was just a sympathy vote)

# Our entry is usually shite either way
be it the Irish one or the UK one (we can have both, being northern)

# I think ireland should ditch the ballads, get some auld boys from the pub
and sing a song about drinking and fighting.

as for the uk? well probably the best thing they could do is get a proper punk act to do a song that names every european country and calls them all cunts in a unique and individual fashion. a surprisingly few people learned from last years winner, Lordi made it clear that europe wants to ROCK!

# Ireland should get fucked. Completely.
It's what they all want/expect. Then sing or chant the fuck out of the rest. The chance of winning would multiply.

# Don't we usually give them points?
But then, I could hardly make out the words on their entry.
