They'll try to edit out the boos, but we'll see how effective it is. They've done it before, but I am sure this is going to worse. If she wins it's going to be chaos.Banned singer booed during rehearsal. I wouldn't want to be her tonight.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
I’d be surprised of it doesn’t actually, classic Eurovision winning crap. Not that I’ll watch any of it
Nah. It is between Rammstein and opera this time.
If she wins? I’d put good money on her getting one of the lowest ever scores in Eurovision history!3rd Fav tonight for the semi final
You can't vote against an entry, you can only vote for it. I hope I'm wrong, but I think she's easily going to be top 10.
That’s mad. Assumed they’d be “nil points” across the board.
EDIT: or is it “nul points”?
How can it not win???
It's obviously aimed at Britain. Such an aggro bunch the Dutch.
Croatia can feck off, Bambie is winning it. It's a class song. Been humming it the last few days. Plus the presentation is great, which is the main thing for Eurovision.
This is our year!
Is Malta the worst Eurovision song ever?
Hope Israel does well tonight
Estonia they should win
they should win This was funny shit with Israel's staged performance.You could hear the same cheers erupt like three times.
I assumed they wouldn’t get through, but it makes sense when you put it that way. My brain wasn’t thinking that way.
Nobody said yet that Malin Akerman is hot?
No idea I'm watching Europa
They definitely suppressed the crowd noise during the performance just in case. Had to turn the tv volume up for Israel and then back down afterwards.
I don't watch Eurovision!
Me neitherI don't watch Eurovision!
Good, but there was something about the audio quality which wasn't as good as the national final. But maybe it's just different, and I've heard the other one so many times anything different sounds off. Most people haven't heard it (and still haven't, I assume they will watch on Saturday).
Alright, thanks for the summary! Maybe I'll sneak a peak
Israel through to the final. Audible boos when they were announced. If there wasn't anti-boo technology it would have been deafening.
feck the EBU for allowing them to participate. Might as well let Russia back in if we're going to do that.

Tbh, i expected more boos.
It's a bit hard to catch on phone mics in a big stadium like that, particularly when some people are cheering.
Yeah I reckon that's gonna do it. Basically the perfect Eurovision song.
Fully expected to haaaaate the Irish entry but it’s great. Best one we’ve done in a very long time. Great performance too. Looks like @esmufc07 has been allocated a banger.
Czechia my favourite, and they didn't even reach the final. Hope for Norway now.
Apparently Israel got 40% of the vote in Italy, as the only country whose numbers are out (they should be secret until the final is over). If Israel wins Eurovision I think it might kill the whole concept, honestly.
What really is killing the concept is these expert votes counting just as much as the viewers votes. Those so called experts are typically people form the industry who's job is to guess what will become the next hit. It's like having a football match, where experts before the game guess who will win, then having their guess counting just as much as the actual result.
I'm Norwegian, you won't hear me defending the jury vote.
I wonder who does. If there was any kind of objectivity in judging the quality of the music, you would think the expert votes would be somehow uniform. Instead the expert votes differ just as much as the viewers votes. Alright, people tend to favor their neighbouring country, but the winners are still spread all over Europe, with or without expert votes.
Nil point!
I think the argument goes that when we got rid of jury voting completely, the quality of entries suddenly became wildly inconsistent. IMO there's no doubt that the quality has been pretty good the last few years. But then you get stuff like KEiiNO being robbed in 2019, and Käärijä last year, and it's annoying.
