Louis Walsh more hated than the Rah/X-Factor Discussion

**lopez** · 14/11/2005, 10:33 AM

Okay, I'm putting my ar*e above the parapet here for admitting this, but I watched Cr*p-Factor the other night (I watch it nearly every weekend due to my kids being avid fans, although last weekend I watched it at work - That or celebrity cum dancing with Brucey and that carpet on his head I'm afraid

). Anyway, to me there's about two decent singers on it - Brenda and Maria - the latter of which was voted off instead of the neo-Nolanistic Conway Sisters. OK. They're Irish, and as Louis keeps saying they're 'four lovely, lovely Irish gals', but wasn't this supposed to be a talent contest, FFS?

Anyway, there's currently an anti-Irish backlash in Britain which has not been seen here since the autumn of '74. I'm having to mothball my Sinn Fein wristband for a few weeks and avoid fake Oirish pubs. I'm sh*tting myself in case anyone thinks I'm Irish.

Cheers Louis!

When ever I see or hear him its an immediate dive for off/change button.
The bits i've seen of that programme he sounds very unconvincing.I can't believe he's been so successful tbh.

In short he is a waanker.
i really cant stand him with his D4 accent despite being from Kiltimagh and his smug grin . Conway sisters are shee ite unfortunatly but i think its in his interrests to keep them in .

Haven't they got a contract with him anyway?

**gustavo** · 14/11/2005, 11:02 AM

Yeah something like that its all very underhand .

**drinkfeckarse** · 14/11/2005, 1:01 PM

Don't watch it but I heard on Radio 1 that Walsh has admitted that the Conway Sisters Dad is a friend of his.

Calls his integrity into doubt considering no-one can understand why he voted the other one off.

**sligoman** · 14/11/2005, 4:25 PM

Louis was talking on Today FM about the incident. He said that people are saying that cos he's Irish that's why he picked the Conway's, he denied that. He said he doesn't know them that well, he doesn't even know their names. He claimed that the Conway's are never going to win the show and neither was Maria(the one that was booted off) but he just picked the Conway's just to give them another week.

**gustavo** · 14/11/2005, 4:30 PM

wwelll if he doesnt think maria was gonna win why didnt he pick her to give here another week!he really is an awful toolbag

Yeah but why offer just one girl the chance when he could have(and did) offer 4 girls the chance?

btw, Why are we even bothering discussing this crap? The Conway's should have been booted off that show weeks ago, even Chico is better than them

**The Stars** · 14/11/2005, 6:24 PM

its Chico time!!!!!!!

Thats like Ron Atkinson's quote about how he never criticises referees after games and he wasn't going to start for that plonker.

The most worrying thing in this post is that so many of you watch X Factor. I don't know who ye are talking about and I'm glad. I know a few lads from Kiltimagh and they say Louis Walsh isn't welcome there.

Oh f*ck. I've been sussed. Before the series I wanted it banned from the house. But it's just like heroine. I can blame the kids if I was at home, but I was at work last saturday. You're right Face, no excuse.

Apparently he's a friend of their father, so if that is true, he should know them well enough.

reproducing what I've said elsewhere on The Conways: I thought a pre-requisite of the pop culture that spawns X-factor was you had to be a bit of a looker at least -which is why I'm really puzzled about the Conways. They've a combined age of about 134 and if I'd a football as old it would hardly be as kicked.

Now if they were really really good that might get overlooked on such a show but frankly -I've borne witness to classrooms full of 8 year olds tootling on tin whistles that held it together better and were less brittle sounding

Back to now: I tend to get annoyed at the way it's pitched as our national duty to support this muck. Frankly if there was any national duty involved at all it'd be to vote for everyone else.

saw "the vote" and playoff the other morning and was compelled to keep watching -in much the same way as people rubberneck at car accidents.

Apparently, both he and Cowell got the little Englanders frothing at the mouth the previous week because they didn't wear any poppies. Funny, last time I looked out the window I thought I was living in a free country.

Anyway, if nothing else, that was one thing he got right.
