As Christmas approaches, we have officially entered the period of the football season in which consistency is everything.

As we all know thanks to the moaning and groaning of managers every year, this time of year features a hectic schedule of matches, with the top clubs often playing an average of one game every three days or so, exacerbated further by dark and wintery conditions.

Broadcasters take great pride in showing title-defining games, relegation scraps and everything else in between. Much to my amusement, but to the disgust of my wife and mother, Sky Sports even released an advert a couple of years ago with the catchphrase, ‘Christmas is for football.’ Half the fun of Christmas is trying to work family events around seeing as much of it as possible!
