Robert Siney: On the boxing theme, when celebrating a goal for Morecambe away at Southport many years ago the excited goalscorer accidentally punched my mate right in the face as we tried to join in. Made me happier than the goal.

Stoke v Man Utd (12:45 GMT)
Louis van Gaal says Manchester United can change their fortunes around but must make an "immediate improvement".
The under-pressure United boss walked out of a news conference after less than five minutes on Wednesday, having asked reporters in attendance: "Has anybody in this room not a feeling to apologise to me?"
United have gone six games without a win - including three successive losses - and Van Gaal said he is experiencing his worst period at Old Trafford.
"There's no disguising the fact we're in a very bad period. Things must begin to improve immediately," said the Dutchman.
"We can turn this situation around. The best way to come out of this period and improve is for us all to stick together."

A bit of history for you now. Today is one of the great traditions of English football and the first ever Boxing Day games to be played took place in 1888 in the inaugural season of the Football League.
Bolton Wanderers and Preston North End were the first ever Boxing Day victors with away wins at Derby County and West Bromwich Albion respectively.
