Letters to Santa

Boldmere St Michaels, Bugbrooke St Michaels and Meltis Corinthians may not be teams that the average football fan knows too much about, but these are the three teams which have all the letters of Christmas in their name. Meltis Corinthians appear to win as their name is only 17 letters in length.

Boldmere St Michaels, known as The Mikes, play in the Midland Alliance. The team, based in Sutton Coldfield, are currently in the lower half of the Midland Alliance.

As for Bugbrooke St Michaels – it’s going to be a happy Christmas in Northamptonshire for some fans. Although their website leaves you wondering about their form as the league table is frozen at P1 W1 D0 L0, further research reveals that The Badgers are in second place five points behind Harborough Town with three games in hand in Division 1 of the United Counties League. However, their first league loss last week at home to lowly Northampton Sileby Rangers may dampen spirits a little today.

Turning to Meltis Corinthians, it is a sad story – the team seems to have folded at senior level and we are left with struggling Meltis Albion, a club that only has just over half the letters of Christmas. Bedford will be a sadder town this Christmas.

And so, before FootballCynic prepares for his Christmas festivities, we are left to consider the league teams that contain 8 letters of Christmas – Manchester United, Manchester City and West Bromwich Albion are the three, but that isn’t at all interesting, so it’s time for a morning bucks fizz.

Below, The Mikes in action.

    Yahay. Drinking wine with my lovely sister on Christmas Day and we have just worked out that all the letters of Christmas are in York City. Happy ones!

But yes, all the letters of Christmas do appear in York City)
