X Factor contestant Ryan Ruckledge claims that he was “stitched up” by the show.
The singer was criticised at boot camp over the weekend for having a few drinks rather than rehearsing.
He was subsequently sent home from the competition.

But now he has hit back, telling
The Sun: “I was told... to get drunk so it would liven things up. I’ve been stitched up. It’s a complete nightmare.”
He added: “Why let us have free booze if they don’t want you to get drunk?"
After the group’s performance, Simon Cowell told Ryan: “I’m not interested in your attitude, your terrible voice and the fact that you decided getting drunk was more important than working with this lot.”
