We caught up with some of our playing staff to get the best and worst of their Christmas past:

Dennis Booth:

Best: I think I'd have to say my wife is the best present I've ever had!

Worst: I was ill once so you'd have to say that wasn't the nicest present you could get.

+++++++

Greg Abbott:

Best: I haven't got a clue.

Worst: I once got one of those bicycle helmets in illuminous purple - except I didn't even have a bike at the time ... what on earth was going on there?

+++++++

Chris Lumsdon:

Best: I once got a blonde highlighting kit ... that was the best.

Worst: An orange. Someone got me an orange. I didn't even get an apple to go with it.

+++++++

Paul Thirlwell:

Best: I got a bike when I was a kid, which was a pretty big thing at the time.

Worst: Someone once bought me some nuts ... unbelievable, but true.

+++++++

Joe Garner:

Best: Err, probably a computer when I was younger. No, it was a Playstation, I'll go for that.

Worst: Socks, it's got to be socks. Every year, without fail, socks!

+++++++

Danny Graham:

Best: I think the best present I could get would be a goal.

Worst: I've had way, way too many to pick just one out.

+++++++

Kevin Gall:

Best: Yeah, put me down for a Danny Graham goal too.

Worst: Actually, funnily enough, a Danny Graham goal. He'd go on for weeks.

+++++++

Ged Dalton:

Best: It was a Playstation, definitely.

Worst: Well, I once got this set of cards, they weren't playing cards or anything like that, in fact, I've never figured out what they were, they were just a load of cards with pictures of random things on like boats and birds. Very strange.

+++++++

Richard Keogh:

Best: Aye, it's a Playstation for me as well.

Worst: I think it's got to be dodgy Christmas gear. I've had some crap sweaters along the way. In fact, I think the lads must have been through my cupboards because most of them are wearing them today.

+++++++

Dolly:

Best: When your children are old enough to appreciate Christmas and open their own presents.

Worst: That will probably be this year because me and the wife have decided not to buy each other anything. We couldn't think of anything we really needed, so we've decided not to bother.

+++++++

Andy Horn:

Best: The only one I can ever remember is getting Ricochet Racers. You shot a toy out of a gun. Don't know why, but I always remember getting that.

Worst: A chopper bike, because I couldn't ride it.

+++++++

Simon Hackney

Best: A cross off my mum and dad.

Worst: A batman toothbrush with green toothpaste - that was awful.

+++++++

A Merry Christmas to everyone from all of us here at the club.
