Went to the community center today to spend the day putting on a Christmas dinner for; the homeless, those below the poverty line, refugees and those, who are well - just lonely and on their own. Knackered now after doing our dinner when we get back after laying and setting the tables, serving to everyone and delivering meals to those who couldn't make it to the center. And as like last year, yes, that's my champion of champions of trifles taking center stage on the afters table. Merry Christmas GF'ers and peace and good will to all and lets hope that next year, a smattering of socialism and care for one another, spreads its ever so tiny little wings into this clusterfuck of greed and egocentric capitalisn shitfest, that we call a nation. Merry Christmas.

All the best peeps, from the pissed up scousers of St Kilda! obligatory jester hat as I am now oot, but still not wool.

It is always one of the things that makes me laugh. The great attacking full backs there's been over the years, some people are "imagine if we had him, we'd win everything", then if we did get him he'd be slaughtered for the 1st time a goal was scored down his side. And with Trent we do have him and we're starting to win everything! Don't worry about what he can't do, enjoy what he can because he's an incredible player and he's only 21. And absolute credit to the manager for seeing what he did in him and allowing the team to develop in a way that allowed Trent to flourish in what appeared at first an unnatural position. I've seen a few people say they'd like to see Trent moved to midfield. It would be the last thing I'd want, as I think playing in our midfield takes the cutting edge of players because of the shift they have to do and how congested the game is centeally. If Trent is to move positions, I could see him ending up in the front 3, although right now I'm just happy where he is and the job he's doing. Finally, I know not a lot has been made of it, but I'm still loving his pass/cross for the winner against Monterey. It was wonderful. Each time I watch it I still keep expecting him to whip it in with pace and instead he just holds off to the perfect moment and measures a pass. It was just incredible.

To those of you craving a draw....

I'm a bit drunk but having the best Christmas ever. Cooked a ham and half eaten it. GF, you should be proud of yourselves, you're good people. Be nice to each other, for once.

You know who you are.

Last 38 PL games, only last 19 for us to make it a bit more fair.

It's the only way they'll learn. My 8 year old nephew got a kid's pool table, and I spent the morning absolutely destroying him like I was Fast Eddie. In hindsight, constantly calling fouls was tight of me, but rules are rules.

Me lad got me a River Plate shirt. Get in! Merry chrimbo all

I'm having a weird Christmas, going to the in laws in France. My arl fella was in hospital the week leading up to it, he recovered and insisted I went. I did. Just spoke to me ma this morning and my 93 year old nan had to have an emergency op last night and is in recovery. Top that off with the weird french traditions and it couldn't feel less like Christmas today. The only saving grace is KidD having the time of her life and there's loads of cheese. Ho ho ho.

Same difference.

Can't they come up with something a bit more imaginative

Stringvest scored a hat-trick.

Bus drivers are usually oldish fellas, and if they are ladies, then they tend to be a bit mannish. But I got a bus recently which was driven by a younger, attractive woman. Great! Except... she operated the steering-wheel one-handed, so while her left arm was slender and feminine, her right was like Popeye's. The discrepancy was extreme and extremely off-putting.

Have a good one people!

Had 'Britains Favourite Christmas Songs" on Channel 5 this morning. Fairytale of New York was 10th so the telly has been launched, kids are crying, xmas is cancelled. EDIT: I haven't got any kids but you get the point.

Merry Christmas. Still no sign of the bin men

I’m a LD cunt now!

Obviously Mo is a huge upgrade but I liked Riera, decent player.

Old readers will know this story but about 15 years ago I was on the M6 stuck in a traffic jam on a Sunday. It was that bad people had got out of their cars to relieve the boredom. I flicked the radio over to R4 and the newsreader told me aliens had landed near the midlands and the country had ground to a halt. For about 5 mins I was convinced it was real until it clicked it was a modern day interpretation of War of the Worlds. I was so close to telling people walking past my car what was happening. Thank fuck I didn’t.

Who else is at work? Lee, Champ, Colin? I am supposed to be back in tonight but managed a shift swap so get the evening off

Yeah - Chip Lard

Did it two Christmases ago, Dave. It’s not half bad is it. Hope you’re better soon.

Watched it all this afternoon, brilliant stuff, 9/10. It could actually have done with being a little longer and including the scenes involving his nephew. The only thing that kind of grated was-

Hope Tiny Tim is ok

Christmas in Alabama

Couldn't agree more, the marxist slag!

We have been given permission from the Premier League to wear the gold badge for one premier league game, home against Wolves. This of course is dependent on us actually receiving the badges. They should try DHGate online, I picked up a few on Saturday for 70p a pop.

Happy Christmas old dribbly bum.

That turkey is massively overpriced and not in its natural position And I'm the first to say so

Neither am I - but for the original Star Wars prequels their reviews in the guise of a character Mr Plinkett absolutely rips the shit out of them and are very entertaining. Admittedly - this sounds shit in theory but at least watch the Phantom Menace one as that is a work of genius.

Sorry but best way to do turkey is bin it and buy nice meat Anyway Starting my Xmas now May or may not have a small pour of Highland Park 12 depending on who's reading

So let me get this straight. Winning the World Club Cup Final for the first time is, in the Usher world, filed the same way as a "weekend match report". World. Club. Cup. Champions. Weekend. Match. Report. Alrighty then.

How? As mad as this may sound, I want it to happen and I want it to be a no deal worst case scenario. It's got to the point where I think it's the only way people will learn. If Brexit is a success we will continue to see a rise in far right politics and will be stuck with the tories for decades.

If they sign Ancelotti I’ll show my tits....
