"I wonder if the likes of Bob Copper and many of those wonderful people of old would manage to get a floor spot in your club."
Bob Copper always managed to sing in tune - what's your point?
"It must be wonderful to be so cocksure that you are good enough that you will always make the cut."
Off-form performances have nothing whatever to do with this question; it is simply a matter of whether an aspiring singer has put in enough work to sing the tune and remember the words - are you suggesting that they be given a spot if they are unable to do either or both?
