With the Random Topic Generator in for its annual service, magazine editor Andy Lyons, writer Harry Pearson and host Daniel Gray deploy a special festive tombola to prompt chatter of Christmas cards from football figures, Boxing Day fixtures, football presents and much more. Magazine Deputy Editor Ffion Thomas previews WSC issue 438, Record Breakers brings us some singing Seagulls, and we continue our sprightly feature The Final Third, in which a guest contributes a match, a player and an object to the WSC Museum of Football. Joining Dan as our visiting curator this time is comedian Jim Burke (@Barcajim3).
