Unlike the Queen of England, we are going to keep our Christmas message short and sweet. Whatever part of the world you are from, Happy Holidays to you, your family and your football team.
This is the time of year to reflect and travel down memory lane. But it’s also the time of year where we wish and want.
Whether it’s Santa Claus or Father Christmas, you don’t have to be a child to write to the most famous bearded man ever with a wish list as long as a football pitch.
We football fans generally don’t wait for Christmas to ask for things. We just see it as a bonus time of the year where we can ask for even more. And since the invention of the January transfer window, the wishing and wanting has become an even bigger epidemic.
You wish your team buys new players in order to compete at the highest level. You want your team to sell players that just aren’t good enough. And you want them to keep the stars you love.
What do you wish for this holiday season? A new left back? A center back or striker? Do you wish your team had a new manager? Do you want a new Chairman? Or do you wish your club dumped your mascot?
It’s not rude to wish and want. It’s just part of life. Don’t be ashamed. We all do it. To make yourself feel better, try and give back a little sometimes. It just makes for more wishing and wanting room.
Share your wishes and wants with us. And who knows, they could come true…
