Help needed - Viewing figures?

[Grays_Dan]

Myself and a mate had an argument last night which led to a massive £5 bet being placed. Is there anyone out there in the know when it comes to Sky viewing figures?

I think more people would have watched the farce that was Audley v Haye than the "El classico" last night but he claims different.

Is there anyone out there who could point me in the right direction of finding the figures

PPV figures aren't easy to get hold of. Anything else you can get on barb.co.uk Barca-Madrid won't be up yet though, need to wait for the week to finish.

The fact that the game was on a Monday this time may have a negative impact on viewing figures (i'm guessing) - compared to the others which were on a Sat/Sun.

Kelvin McKenzie wrote in his clumn today that over 1million watched the football.

Maybe,but he is very well connected in media circles and probably knows about this.

692,000 watched El Clasico on 29 Nov 09 (UK - Sky Sports 1)
517,000 watched El Clasico on 10 Apr 10 (UK - Sky Sports 1)

This is an average of 604,500 for recent El Clasico matches shown in the UK. Early estimates for the Haye vs Harrison PPV are between 600,000 & 700,000 (UK - Sky Box Office). This would make the Haye vs Harrison PPV the third highest seller in UK PPV history. It also makes your bet with your mate too close to call at the moment.

As mentioned above, you will have to wait a few days for the El Clasico numbers. If the number is significantly higher than 700,000 it is fairly safe to say your mate won. Significantly lower than 600,000 and it is almost certain that you have won; and anything between should really be called a draw because you are unlikely to get any more exact PPV numbers than the ones I have provided above.

and in that case you and your mate have to fight over the fiver
