X Factor fans left heartbroken after Yes Lad are overlooked for a place on live shows yet AGAIN after Brooks Way are axed
Twins were dropped from show amid controversy and replaced by girl group Four of Diamonds
HEARTBROKEN X Factor fans are up in arms that boy band Yes Lad were overlooked for a place in the live finals yet again in favour of Four of Diamonds.
The four-piece girl band were unveiled as the new finalists on Monday following the shock axing of twin duo Brooks Way, who were kicked off the show amid claims Josh Brooks hit his ex-girlfriend.
The brother's had previously been suspended from performing on the first live show on Saturday, and after an uncertain weekend, the decision was made to remove the band from the show permanently.
But fans who had been hopeful of a last minute reprieve for popular five-piece Yes Lad were left disappointed all over again once it had been revealed that Four of Diamonds would be joining Louis Walsh's category instead.
The group's supporters had started a ferocious social media campaign to try and get the boys reinstated on the X Factor, and took to Twitter to share their heartbreak that their efforts had amounted to nothing.
