The general feeling is Aiden Grimshaw went before his time on this year’s X Factor. The most probable explanation seems to be that he appeared to be safe..so people saved their votes for later weeks. Katie Waissel’s fans on the other hand were more than aware they had to pick up the phone.
Matt himself made his thoughts known on the judges sending Aiden to deadlock: “I thought it was a bad, bad decision. He is so talented. He and I had been through everything together.”
Grimshaw’s fans though have made up for this, forming an almost military operation of support, with Twitter being their main weapon. Currently #getgrimshawsigned is trending.
If this boy don’t get signed, he should just release something himself. Any album he releases bound to fly.

Im one of the helpers in this campaign, on twitter as @AidensGrimlings. One of my tweets was in the daily mail today! Im so proud of what we are starting to achieve
2 newspapers have noticed us today, so soon enough a record deal should! Aiden needs and deserves to be signed more than any other person on EARTH. People that think he is just intense, get to know him and watch his twitcams and you will be proved wrong! The love for Aiden is massive and we will NEVER give up! x WE LOVE YOU AIDEN!

I’ve also helped in trending, i’m @AidenBunnyEars on twitter, Aiden is so genuine to his fans, and we ALL really believe he can be huge, he just needs the chance to show everyone. We all want this just as much as him! His voice is just amazing, quirky and unique, he will bring something different to the quite boring music industry at the moment. I’m proud to be an Aiden Grimshaw fan! x

I’m hard of hearing, But ever since I saw Aiden on x-factor, I fell in love with his voice. I can hear him very clearly when he is singing which happens to me rarely. My favourite artist for past 10 years was Lee Ryan. He is just like Aiden – easy to hear. I have problems with music which means it take me a long time to hear it, learn the lyrics and know the song. Blue have released 3 albums and I’m still learning it!! I am now friend with Lee Ryan as he is helping my deaf group out which is amazing as he is my favourite! Aiden is my second.
Please give Aiden a recording contract! He is brilliant! x

I’m so thrilled our efforts are being noticed… i’m on twitter under the name @iLoveTheQuiff and we are all so devoted and supportive of our aiden, if he doesn’t get signed it’ll be a huge loss to the music industry. Aiden is such a talented and lovely person, i’m proud to be one of the first generation of Grimlings. Long may they continue to grow! LOVE YOU AIDEN! xxxxxxxx <3

Does anyone know how long he is tied to the XF recording contract? And will he be able to tell us ASAP if he gets signed? WE CAN’T WAIT.
Pop music world needs Aiden. More people like Aiden. That’s a genuine musician.. sigh. If only XF didn’t make him seem like the intense, dark person that he wasn’t.
Go Aiden. Support from all over the world, Mr Grimshaw!

We call ourselves his ‘grimlings’ most nights we try and trend on twitter things like #signgrimshawnow / #getgrimshawsigned. Im really happy that we’ve been noticed. We do it for Aiden because we believe that he has huge potential in the music industry, and we’re egre to get him that record deal!

I am one of these grimlings as we call ourselves Aiden needs this contract but if he’s gonna get one with @Syco_Music he’s better off gettin there himself because Simon cowell will just corrupt all Aiden’s ideas with his own awful ones and ruin Aidens carrerr!!!!!! from @Cowellsucks

Get over yourselves. He was shit on the X Factor. Need i remind you he came 9th.
A few little girls spamming twitter is not a real fanbase. The sooner he disappears the better.
Only real singers have longevity.
