Rikki was rubbish last night. He deserved to go. Rachel is the stronger out of the 2 and Rikki's version of 'Respect' wasn't great so I wasn't surprised to see him in the bottom two. Was sad to see his dream crushed, but he simply wasn't good enough.

Although Ricky is no superstar and he would never have won the x factor, he is good in his own right and Simon Cowell should be ashemed of himself putting Ricky out in the X Factor Show yesterday, he was miles better than Rachael and how unfair it was when Louise Walsh had no say in who to keep in? Louise if absent which applies to all judges should ring their vote through, as I have no doubt in my mind being a former professional musician and judge in many talent contests that Louie would have sent Home Rachael, making the vote stalemate and public voting in place to eliminate and if the public didnt vote Rachael out then she will go pretty soon as she is no more than a karaoke Singer, and Twins may be abnoxious but they are like Chico, funny, and popular and like Marmite, you either hate them or love them!
I hope the public vote for the best, at the moment it is between Stacey Lucie Ollie and the fuzzy talent whose name escapes me. The rest are just there for the numbers and will never make pop stars.
