As the title says, at your discretion, feel free to share how yours went.

Mine was good. I had a few days when I had caught a bug which annoys me because I don't like feeling unwell for multiple days. I spent most of the day doing stuff in the background, whilst watching TV in the living room. 

Some good films were on, but the strangest thing was the days you'd expect to see films shown, only to see repeats of old TV shows dominating the listings.

That's fine, we just fired up our Android box and loaded Jellyfin to watch stuff.

Christmas itself was pretty standard, aside from helping Jake build his first full PC build for his eldest sister Ellie. We watched a few things, then had Christmas dinner and then went to wish @GrannyPie a happy birthday. It was nice to see GP and @super_ram open up their gifts.

New Year we didn't celebrate it, I spent most of the day watching The Goldbergs. ????

I never had anything against Wrexham at all. They've been in the Conference for 15 years now, so surely they've done their time. It's a proper club with a good and loyal fanbase and the Football League is better with them in it. I don't even mind their owners - they're not in it for sportswashing, or to get their faces in the local rag more often, or to make some quick cash by flogging the ground - they're doing it for fun.

BUT I'm sick and tired of the antics of some of their fans online. Even posts about Meadow Lane, which are nothing to do with their club at all. are brigaded by arrogant, condescending Wrexham fans telling us how much bigger they are. It's just exhausting. I know the brief Munto phase brought the worst out of some Notts fans in 2009-10, but were they really THAT bad?

Or should I just spend less time online?

We seem to be lacking a match thread for this (blame all the rearranged fixtures), so I've made one.

Really disappointed with last night's result. We had lots of possession, but it was all too slow, ponderous and predictable. We also had some really dodgy moments passing it around the back (Baldwin played himself into trouble more than once), so the visitors' lead was no surprise. We looked a different side after the break, but quickly reverted to type after equalising. We didn't do enough to win against a hard-working but average team.

Looks like we've firmly handed the initiative back to Wrexham, if not (yet) top spot.

"Fidel" has signed up on loan to Gateshead for the rest of the season....... I wonder why?????.... Not a very glamorous move in my opinion!!!!! 

Here we are again then - if you want to have a go, send in your prediction by 3pm on Saturday and remember your joker!

Dear All,

Happy new year. I am involved in a university research project looking at the recent World Cup in Qatar and whether this was a highly unusual tournament, unlikely to be repeated, or the start of future World Cups loaded with political and social issues. To answer this, we have created a short survey that I hope you can spare a few minutes to share your views:

Thursday football is just wrong, but blame the powers that be, not me. Kick-off is 7.45pm, and remember your jokers!

Millwall v Bristol City

Wigan Athletic v Sunderland

Forest Green Rovers v Burton Albion

Morecambe v Accrington Stanley

Shrewsbury Town v Cheltenham Town

Grimsby Town v Salford City

Northampton Town v Swindon Town

Walsall v Stockport County

Has anyone tried this out yet? I missed Saturday's match so I'm giving tonight's match a go instead. Seems decent value for 4.75 during the beta phase, and it'll be a godsend for us exiled fans. No harm in giving it a go.

I hope there'll be some kind of subscription on offer though. A tenner a week to watch football on your laptop is quite steep.

What is Father Christmas bringing you? In my case I'm hoping for more than the usual four points! These games kick off at 3pm on Boxing Day, and remember your jokers! And if I don't post again till then, have a great Christmas everybody!

Hull City v Blackpool

Rotherham United v Stoke City

Exeter City v Portsmouth

Wycombe Wanderers v Bristol Rovers

Carlisle United v Bradford City

Rochdale v Hartlepool United

Altrincham v Halifax Town
