dont think i'd ever vote in BB to be honest! I suppose I'm not the typical person who fits in their voting demographic anyway, but I think John will get votes. He's shortened from about 12's to 5's in a few days. Not sure if he'll win, but he'll come close.

Bookies prices are set by the amount of money going on each candidate. Alot of money will already be on John as he got the pass on the first night, hence his short price. The people who matter, the voters, imo, will not vote John their winner.
Take bookies, specialy Betfair, prices with a pinch of salt my friend.
The voting just now is a witch hunt, voting against people, on the final night it is a popularity contest. I seriously cannot see John being anyone who cares enough to vote, other than the boys family and friends, choice, and i will be very surprised if he is not first out on the final night.
Looking at how this is working out . 2 evicted from AMY, CALISTA, EMILIA, JAY and JEREMY. imo Amy and Jeremy will be fine. The huge price for Jay and Calista points at them going out, but i would not be surprised to see Emilia go.
If Emilia stay I think Jeremy must have a good chance at this, obviously the more coverage people get the more people will warm to them. |

well i've only been backing a couple of high priced outsiders (John when he went into double figures) and trading movements (like Amy's price crash in the last few days).

with that logic, why would anybody vote at all?! 
I think that John fits the profile of previous winners (in the mould of Jermaine Jackson last year), although i'm not particularly confident, but it was definitely a huge value price when i flagged it up a few days back.
I still think that Nathan has a chance as he already has a fanbase, and so he is not to be under-estimated. Anthony is looking like throwing away a winning position.
As much as I like Amy, I think that the history of male winners in this competition, combined with the fact that I think a lot of female voters may be a bit jealous of her and regard her as a toff, will mean that she probably won't win.
Most important for me is the vacuum of voters. We probably won't see votes into 6 figures, so anybody with an existing fanbase (ie Nathan) has a huge advantage.

john may have shot himself in the foot there, potentially snatching defeat from the jaws of victory...the show ends of tomorrow yet he saves his biggest faux pas for tonight, insinuating emilia and her brother were...erm...close! doh!

Can't dig yourself out a hole now Titan. John was never even in it. He connects with no one. 
Tell me if you tink Jeremy is looking good, last 2 at least. |

we'll have to agree to disagree about john! 
jeremy is an outsider, I suppose in some ways the male version of Amy...I think they're probably seen by the public as too elitist.
It's a totally open race though, I can't predict this one with any degree of confidence. I'm hoping that Nathan's fans are 'sleeping giants' and they'll vote over and over again for him, which will hopefully distort a market which is sure to be low in numbers. He says his biggest fan base is in Japan, hopefully they can vote for him somehow?!
I reckon that on paper, he's probably the ideal winning candidate...similar to Anthony, but without the crude remarks and baggage. He's handsome, suave and he's a crooner, but the problem is that he hasn't done anything which sticks in the mind (apart from maybe singing 'the thong song'  ), and his lack of exposure on camera is the only thing holding him back.
It's been a funny series in places, low on drama I guess but it's been interesting viewing.

Amy is fav in my eyes because the public have seen that she "seems" to be quite down to earth and seems like the sort of girl that other girls would vote for. I do think that she shouldnt be fav as antony looks the obvious one but Amy tends to have a likeable personality. |
