  • The best time to back Ukraine to win was three months ago.

    The second best time is now.

    1.44 available on Betfair Exchange. That will be halved by the time the voting starts tomorrow night.

    Would you rather have 1.44 on Ukraine to win Eurovision or 1.41 on Man City to win away at West Ham?

    1.44 is still really good for this late in the game and worth a reasonable punt (only bet what you can afford).
    Ukraine are 1/6 to win the public vote which I thought was a great price. Definitely a professional bet if I have ever seen one. 

    Sweden were 8/1 to win the judges vote. Some decent prices if you can get a combination of bets. Normally the mid table acts do better the later they go on. I would buy Estonia who are on last, even if there song is slightly worse than Czech Republic who are 1st.

    “Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

That hairy coat of yours with nothing underneath
Not sure you have a name, so I will call you Keith


    Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh


    See where you’re going, but I don’t know where you’ve been
Is that saliva or blood drippin’ off your chin?
If you don’t like the name Keith I’ma call you Jim


    Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Give that wolf a banana

    TThree things...
    1)  Why are the Russians not being punished by being made to watch it ?

    2)  If we invaded someone could we then be banned from it?

    3)   As we have left the EU why haven't we also left this waste of time ?

    1) They won't be allowed to watch it as Ukraine are almost certain to win.
    2) We don't do invasions!
    3) If they had made the non-existent link between the EU and the EST then I may have wavered and voted leave. There is a simple alternative though - just don't watch it.

    I have it on the TV. Not quite sure why as I don't think I've watched it since the 1970s. I suppose eighteen years in Thailand helped that!

    EDIT Given up after 30 minutes!

    Stuck it on for 2 minutes and the presenters were talking. Why are Europeans so fucking weird?

    I dunno if it's my telly, post-covid hearing issues or the venue acoustics, but I'm having real trouble hearing the words with some of these songs. But it does mean I discovered that the translations are showing up in the subtitles feed

    Italy obviously don't want to host it again next year.

    One of them is a Charlton fan. So at least he gets a pass.

    Could have seen Ukraine's one doing well even if it wasn't for the political sympathy vote.
