Pretty low sales for both to be honest, but enough to suggest that it's a done deal.  Can't see a way back for JA from here...

The Justice Collective’s Hillsborough tribute single leads the race to the 2012 Christmas Number 1 in the Official Charts Company’s final sales bulletin of the week.

The race to the 2012 Christmas Number 1 remains finely balanced going into the weekend. In the Official Charts Company’s final sales bulletin of the week, The Justice Collective’s Hillsborough tribute single, He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother, maintains its lead over James Arthur’s Impossible for the third day running, having sold 23,000 copies more than the X Factor winner up to midnight last night (with five days of sales counted).

The Official Charts Company’s managing director Martin Talbot says:

“The momentum is in favour of the Justice Collective, who now have a decent lead, having sold around 15% more than James Arthur at this point. But they have opened up their lead in just two days – it could easily be closed over the next two days.

“The Justice Collective are favourites right now – but their lead is not unbridgeable by any means. With two days of sales left to be counted, it is all to play for.”

With my industry head on;

It's important in these days of downloads(legal and otherwise) and the demise of the high street, that we continue to get people to celebrare music in all it's forms. The Christmas No1 race is one of those times we can keep ourselves in the forefront of peoples minds. Martin's a great MD, the OCC has been rebranding the charts and it is working to keep the public a bit interested.

Now how about everyone go out and buy a CD or Vinyl in a shop over the next

sorry if this has already been posted but even JA wants Hillsborough to be number 1:

"Platinum single baby! Not a bad start :) thanks to all who bought it now make sure the hillsbrough tune is number 1!! #LOVE," Arthur added, in reference to the Justice Collective charity single supporting the families of those involved in the 1989 stadium disaster.
