Hayley and James think they're on to a winner in their battle with Rafferty in Thursday's Fair City on RTÉ One and the RTÉ Player.

Hayley is refusing to sell her shares to Rafferty, and he is claiming that he doesn't want the stand-off to end up in court.

In Thursday's episode, Hayley and James overhear a conversation between Rafferty and Joan about sales projections and think it will give them the edge over James's father.

Fans can watch what happens next on Thursday on RTÉ One and the RTÉ Player at 8:30pm.
