Christmas Day Soccer Special
12pm - Sky Sports 1
5pm - Sky Sports 1
If Father Christmas leaves you disappointed this year on Christmas morning, fear not, for Sky Sports and Soccer Saturday have just the treat to get your Yuletide back on track.
You have probably all been exposed to the X Factor at one time or another this year, and Soccer Saturday in their seasonal special show, have given it their very own treatment.
You all know the formula: Contestants singing popular classics - or making fools of themselves - in front of a panel of expert judges and a live studio audience.
Jeff Stelling will host this stellar performance on Sky Sports 1 and the troupe of singers for you are Soccer Saturday experts Alan Mullery, John Salako, Alan McInally, Chris Kamara, Garry Gillespie and John Aldridge, Goals on Sunday presenter Rob McAffrey with Football First hostess Claire Tomlinson providing a touch of beauty to a rogue's gallery.
The panel of "experts" is made up by musical mavericks Charlie "The Proclaimer" Nicholas, Phil "Ringo" Thompson and Matt "Manilow" Le Tissier, while the audience includes the likes of Ian Rush, Peter Reid and Paul Merson.
They should probably have called it the "Why Factor" and many of the audience certainly wondered why on earth they went to listen to most of these guys sing, but a couple of the performances will surprise you.
Who will be the winner? You will have to tune into Sky Sports 1 on Christmas Day to find out...
