    There seems to be a prevailing attitude that Ireland were robbed on Thursday. Even if we'd scraped through we hadn't a hope at top 10 even. And it's a weak enough year overall.

    Nonsense! The best songs were wrote and performed while on drugs, just ask the 80s

    What is this effing thing of having a guitar now, strumming a few notes and then flipping it onto your back to strut about the stage. Jesus. German Slim Shady did it too, but at least he was justified as he was trying to keep the one man band theme going.

    It's not bad, at least it's not another f*cking ballad.

    Serbian song is code to Putin to nuke Europe. Estonian tune is Spaggetti Western stuff. I'm pinning my bets on the UK as an Irishman but I can see how this will go. Thank fook its nearly over.

    We'll see when the results of the semis come out in full. I'd be surprised if we were close at all.

    I reckon we'll avoid the wooden spoon as there was some awful dross but we could easily have been second last

    Really glad we didn't make the final. It would have been Father Ted big zero.

    The year it didn't happen was the strongest year in a long, long time.

    This year was very, very poor.

    The Serbia song is definitely a satire of Covid. Probably still pissed about Djokovic.

    I guess the voting is pretty much a fait accompli; i mean, whatever about the popular vote, every jury is gonna be too terrified to not vote for Ukraine.

    So we will dump Roscommon and Leitrim in the Irish postcards if we ever win again.

    My top 3 are Moldova, France and Spain with Belguim as an outside chance

    Bookies live betting has Ukraine, Sweden, UK, Spain, Italy as favourites in that order. Ukraine a mile out in front though. Like Sweden is 5/1 and Ukraine is 2/9. Feels like it's all a forgone conclusion at this point
