It's the most wonderful time of the year! It's episode 29 of The Brunton Bugle and the lads are excited for a double-helping of Christmas football over the next few days!

On today's show, Lee and Dan look ahead to the Christmas fixtures against Bolton Wanderers (H) and Harrogate Town (A), focusing on the Trotters' mighty fall from grace over the last few years and the Sulpherites (honestly, that's their nickname) impressive rise through the ranks of non-league football.

There's also a look back at the defeat to Forest Green Rovers and some chat about which players the club should be aiming to get tied down on longer contracts asap.

As well as all this, there's the usual round-up of what ex-Blues have been getting up to and some of the news from Brunton Park.

Your host Lee Rooney is in Liverpool and is joined from a safe social distance of around 131 miles away by Dan MacLennan in Carlisle. You can find us on Twitter @bruntonbugle and email us with any questions, suggestions and feedback to bruntonbugle@gmail.com.
