“It could be anyone, Yes Lad, Four of Diamonds…”

Northern band Yes Lad are the front-runners after X Factor fans took to social media to campaign for the boys to be brought back.

As the twins have now been removed from the show completely, fans have upped their game and have been spamming the X Factor’s official account on Twitter.

Yes Lad were popular with the judges from their first audition, where they sang ‘Can’t Stop The Feeling’ by Justin Timberlake, however they were less impressed with their six chair challenge performance of ‘Let it Be’.

The Northern band is made up of five lads aged 19-21, Joel, Cian, Lewis, Luke and Sonny.

Another band in the running is 4 of Diamonds.

The kooky girl group made it through to Judges Houses with Louis who ditched them in favour of Bratavio.

Another group potentially in the running is Skarl3t who also lost out at Judge’s Houses with Louis.

Although they impressed in Ibiza, Louis did not choose to bring them further in the competition – but who knows whether they’ll be back?

Brooks Way were axed from the competition permanently, after being pulled from Saturday’s live show following a Sun on Sunday probe that revealed the extent of Josh Brooks’ abusive relationship with ex girlfriend Amelia Clarke.

An X Factor source exclusively tells The Sun Online: “The boys were in bits during the 90 minute meeting and completely broke down in tears.

“Show bosses went really hard saying they can’t tolerate that behaviour and they’re not welcome back at the studios.”

Their shock exit from the competition came after The Sun revealed the extent of Josh’s abusive relationship with ex-girlfriend Amelia Clark.

Amelia said she had been left with bite marks to her face, black eyes and severe bruising on her legs and arms during their four year relationship.

The attacks were so frequent that police, who had been called on six occasions, begged her to apply for a restraining order against him.

Amelia told a friend: “At points during our relationship I was black and blue.

“I was constantly lying about where my bruises had come from.”
