True, I only have about half of them left and only a few I can place reasonable stakes.

Game over I'd have thought. With the publicity from today's verdict the single is guaranteed more airplay over the next 48 hours.

I can see the campaign going full throttle now, the single will be used as a tag on to all the news stories tonight, so momentum all with the JC.

The people of Merseyside are going to go out and buy this single to ensure they get it to number one by Sunday I would have thought.

Mebbe. I still say if it had Baloney on it it would never have traded above 1.05

Really don't know which way to go now definite momentum with the Justice C, but I'm not going in short doing that put me in this position thanks to the Liverpool echoCry will probably sit it out unless an edge appears, for a small red Justice small green on James.

Straightforward, nigel? I've been on a rollercoaster! JC matched between 1.1 and 2.0, A/O matched between 1.8 and 7.6! You must have played it much better than me, and, now that the end game seems in sight, I'm very happy to get out with 2 small greens.

Sure everyone is aware of this, but just to note that physical copies of the JC are retailing at £2 compared to £4 for James Arthur.

Spoke to the manager at my local HMV (admittedly in NW in Chester) and he says that JC are outselling JA 3:1 in their store so far this week.

As soon as JC had overtaken JA by 3k i.e. Alanjz's post this morning.

With JA selling so many in the first week as well and the Hillsborough news - PS I'm no expert in these markets but that was a gifthorse - albeit not much could be staked earlier.

The Justice Collective’s Hillsborough tribute single has extended its lead over X Factor winner James Arthur, but 2012 Christmas Number 1 is by no means over.

According to the Official Charts Company’s latest sales data, The Justice Collective’s cover of He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother has increased its lead over James Arthur’s Impossible after its first four days on sale.

The all-star group, who are raising funds and awareness for the ongoing legal battle of the families of the Hillsborough tragedy, started the week trailing the X Factor winner by 3,000 copies. Yesterday (Wednesday, December 20) The Justice Collective surged ahead of James Arthur by 3,400, and today they have extended their lead to 14,000 copies with sales of 146,000 vs Arthur’s 132,000.

JC plus 6k yesterday, and plus 11k today

Looks all over really, press just trying to make it look interesting really

Can James bounce back at the weekend?   I don't see how
