There was a rather understated reaction from league leaders Whitchurch Alport's official Twitter feed after the 3-0 home win over St Helens Town:
18 matches to go. That's 54 points up for grabs. Today's win took us to 51. Safe from the drop pic.twitter.com/UyRoWRPEiU

However, Alport's Simon Everall was a tad more expansive and effusive:
Superb @alportfc . Players, committed and fans all loving the journey. Let's celebrate properly tonight. Back on the top ⚽️

Staying with the seasonal theme, we can only hope that the special guest who attended the abandoned game at the Select Security Stadium was able to make his way home safely through the fog, and won't get lost before Christmas Eve:
