Banbury United FC, Mickleover Sports FC

The last Saturday of football before Christmas is usually an occasion for lower than usual attendances although the calendar this season means that there is still a match-free Saturday, in the shape of Christmas Eve (in England although there are quite a few matches taking place in Scotland), in which to cram in some last-minute shopping.

Two Non-League clubs pulling out all the stops to divert people away from the shops are Banbury United and Mickleover Sports of the Southern and Northern Premier Leagues respectively.

Currently 7th in the table, Banbury welcome bottom club Cinderford Town for a 3pm kick-off with admission reduced to £5 for Adults and Concessions and free for Under-16's.

The Puritans are also hosting a Christmas Funday with a free gift for all children, a choir and a visit from the pantomime.

In Derbyshire, fellow mid-table dwellers Ashton United are the visitors to Mickleover's Don Amott Arena where admission is £5 for Adults and free for Under-16's and Concessions.

The Christmas theme continues here with a free selection box of chocolates for the children.
