LAD V DAD?
Three days into December and Football Daily has already polished off the advent calendar. The lack of self-discipline and short-sightedness is as astounding as it is predictable and part of the reason we are writing tea-timely emails rather than hoovering up any of the FSA awards, dished out on Monday night to our so-called counterparts. Enjoy the gongs, journalists. I hope they make you happy. Dear Lord, what sad little lives. Christmas should be a time for joy but for those of us floundering, it can also be a difficult time to negotiate. Just ask Everton fans: fresh from having their tails handed to them at Old Trafford, the club now face a crucial relegation clash at home to Wolves on Wednesday, before a set of festive fixtures trickier than Football Daily’s Christmas lights: the Merseyside derby at home to Liverpool on Saturday, before games against Arsenal, Chelsea and on Boxing Day, Manchester City. That Christmas Day hangover is going to hit different.
