The Football Ramble’s Guide To… Christma...

About this episode

’Tis the season for yellow cards and Robbie Savage having a fight in the Christmas party chocolate fountain!


Jules, Luke and Jim bring you a comprehensive run down of that most unique of English football phenomena: the Christmas schedule.


From the *very* homely origins of the tradition, to some memorable Boxing Day moments in years gone by, we’ll run you through it all - and introduce you to the master Christmas truant! And no, it isn’t Kevin Nolan.


Merry Christmas from all of us here at the Ramble!
