Here we are then, final table ticket sales on the Guild Hall website (and also Skiddle as I was able to work out the sales there: a grand total of TWO)

Number in brackets is the change since Friday. The Thursday figure is not wrong - I double checked it.

Wednesday - 46 (up 19)
Thursday - 42 (DOWN 7!!)
Friday - 39 (up 18, includes 2 on Skiddle)
Sat afternoon - 24 (up 5)
Sat evening - 56 (up 8)
Sun afternoon - 12 (up 4)
Sun evening - 18 (up 3)

TOTAL = 237 (up 41)

The Welsh cinema had sold 301 by the morning of the first day and that was only for 4 sessions, so this has been even more of a catastrophe than that assuming they havent sold loads for the stands right at the back :DDD:

Take a bow, Sue Wayne and Des :WWWW: :WWWW:

There might be more stand tickets sold than table so thus a chance you could double those figures. I mean I reckon a few folks would guess they will be able to move forward so would buy cheaper tickets.

There will be a few but certainly won't be a substantial number. Double? Not a chance.
Would be funny if they make them all stay miles behind rows of empty tables. Venue idiots for having them on sale.

Good to see a couple of classic jokes being given a much deserved airing on this thread.

I see our old friend couldn't resist a nibble at these numbers on the Fanatics.

Was only 3 minutes out with my prediction too, Sparky.

The Sunday sessions will look dreadful.
Unfortunate that I won't be able to tune in.

I won't be in this evening, off out on the piss. Can someone please post screencaps of the pathetic and dire crowd to this thread?

A magnificent display of salesmanship
