Tickets are still available for Murrayfield on Sunday.
This fact doesn't quite fit with yesterday's Times, by the wonderfully named Owen Slot.
"... the number of supporters following the team to Edinburgh is astonishing. Tourist organisations are estimating a migration of some 40,000, many without tickets. Murrayfield’s struggles to sell out will be solved by vast seas of red."
Scotland had 47,000 for the Italy game, 20,000 short of capacity. Unless the Scottish performance was so dire that they're staying at home, those "40,000 Welshmen, many without tickets" actually consist of 15,000 going to the game and 25,000 (the 'many without tickets') watching at home or in the pub.
