Yesterday you’ll remember that we looked at all the X Factor contestants who don’t stand a freaking chance of winning. And today it’s the turn of the X Factor contestants that nobody cares about either way!

Remember before the live X Factor shows started, when there was a lot of talk about everything being completely different on X Factor this year? They weren’t kidding either – everything was different on Saturday. Everything! And by ‘everything’ we mean that Lionel Richie showed his big smug face for about eight seconds and Simon Cowell now has his shirt unbuttoned all the way to his belly button. Major, major changes. How are we expected to go back after that?

Here are the X Factor betting odds for Robert Allen, Eton Road, Nikitta Angus and Raymond Quinn, with betting odds from PaddyPower.com…

Robert Allen – Faced with having to try and sell perhaps the most anonymous X Factor contestant in the show’s history to an already-overloaded public, what did Sharon Osbourne do? She only stuck Robert Allen on first, where he’d be most likely to be forgotten. And – let’s be fair – the world would be a better place if everyone forgot Robert’s X Factor performance of All Night Long, which involved him screaming “Let’s clap people, then, UH!” and “Woo, if you know it, sing!” like a Butlins redcoat. After the song, Robert Allen flitted backwards and forwards between hyperactive joy and hysterical weeping. That’s right – like a fucking nutter. Current X Factor betting odds – 12/1

Eton Road - We wish we had Louis Walsh‘s brain, because we’d love to know what he was thinking when he let Eton Road be in the X Factor finals. “The world really needs to see four trainee hairdressers from Liverpool sing cloth-eared Motown songs that subsequently had movies named after them where Macaulay Culkin gets killed by a swarm of bees,” probably. Eton Road sang My Girl on Saturday’s X Factor, but they fell down when each member clearly started to try to out-sing everyone else in the group. Simon Cowell called Eton Road “odd,” which – as we all know – is code for “when the lead singer sings, he takes on a posture like a 1950s cartoon housewife who’s seen a mouse in her kitchen.” Current X Factor betting odds – 11/1

Nikitta Angus – You’ll know who Nikitta Angus is; she’s the X Factor contestant with the unique selling point of having a dead Mum. As tragic as that undoubtedly is, mentioning it within seconds of her X Factor VT package did seem like she was over-egging things a little. However, during her performance, Nikitta set this issue aside and looked like she was having the time of her life. Shame, then, that Nikitta sounded like a wasp in a wind tunnel all the way through her song. Which we can’t even remember the name of. That doesn’t exactly bode well for the future, does it? Current X Factor betting odds – 9/1

Raymond Quinn – That’s Raymond Quinn The Unstoppably Slappable Infant to you. In an obvious attempt to pander to the droves of housewives who watch X Factor, Simon Cowell brylcreemed the life out of Raymond’s hair and made him sing Ben, a weepy song about a dead rat. To call Raymond’s X Factor performance ‘weedy’ would be to do a giant disservice to everyone else who’s ever been called weedy in their lives – his vocals were simply all over the place. However, Simon Cowell said that Raymond is in possession of a little something called ‘likability.’ It’s just a shame he isn’t in the possession of a little something called ‘testicles’. Current X Factor betting odds – 8/1
