...Christmas away from home, loved ones and all the traditions you've loved over a lifetime always sucks.

Not one, but two home games will be especially hard to to take as well. Sure, I'll be sat in front of a screen watching Ifollow without sound, but it won't be the same.

I might take the missus to a bar for a tipple or two, but they'll be serving burgers, 'sandwiches' and salads - which just isn't the same.

The weather is going to be good though with plenty of sunshine but with temperatures hovering around -24 celsius and that's cold.

Anyway, I'll finish as I began by wishing one and all a wonderful Christmas and a Happy and successful New Year And we all know what that means
