Posted May 12, 200718 yr 'flying the flag'..... but which flag? if its the union jack (i will NOT bow down to the stupid pc brigade who have changed its name to the union flag, it has always been 'jack' to me and always will!!!), then they will certainly lose. they should have flown either the euro flag, (blue with a ring of stars) or some flag depicting peace. flying our flag will certainly fuel anti british sentiment throughout europe... bloody idiots!
May 12, 200718 yr TBH .. they are the uk's entry.. we shouldn't have to change our flag to the european union one just to suit other countries, if they don't like us for it then too bad.. nobody would care if this was some little european countires song and they were flying "their" flag....

May 12, 200718 yr I reckon we'll come in the bottom 3..... :rolleyes: .....At least were almost guaranteed 12 points from Ireland ;)
May 12, 200718 yr .....At least were almost guaranteed 12 points from Ireland ;) Erm...no. We haven't received a full 12 from Ireland for fecking AGES, the most we stand to get is an 8...
May 12, 200718 yr I assume they will use a European flag? A UK Flag would be a disaster and will lose a lot of votes. So much so I doubt if they would get out of bottom 5.

May 12, 200718 yr I think the big mistake was sending Scooch instead of Cyndi in the first place :smoke:

May 12, 200718 yr You mean Big Brovaz :P No, I mean Cyndi - hip hop/rap doesn't work at Eurovision, it's a cardinal rule, Cyndi would've done well :P
May 12, 200718 yr They're gonna have loads of flags on their trolleys tonight. :D And the official name is actually the Union Flag, not Jack; the worst thing they did was have it upside down on their video! :manson:

May 14, 200718 yr Mistake was a song about flying. Most of Europe don't fly much and can't relate to the subject very well. People in the UK can as they fly a lot - we are an island, hence why it was nominated to represent the UK. Also explains why Malta gave it 12 points, because Malta being a smallish island are used to flying all the time.
