"Burnley fans spend the least on their partners at Christmas - around £20 on average, according to a survey.

A poll carried out by footballtips.com suggest Clarets fans are the most frugal when it comes to festive shopping for their other half.

Meanwhile, Brighton fans are the most generous - spending £110 on average."

Quite a bit more than £110 this year. Still, once the divorce is final.............

She’s a gem but absolutely ****ing awful at choosing presents so I’ve long since given up putting any thought into hers. Tenner max.

Wow, I'm moving to Burnley...[emoji28]
I will spend about £100-200 this year. Other years a lot more, just down to circumstances. I never know what to buy her but she always does me. If I could, I would buy her the world. 25 years marriage next year, she is worth everything that I have got.

Nothing: we've made an agreement not to buy each other anything this year as money's pretty tight at the moment: we'd rather spend it on the kids.

Interestingly, I found that my mum and dad had a similar arrangement for a few years, when we kids were young.

Quite a lot more than the Daily Fail suggests I might. But then Mrs P is the only person I buy presents for.

I have spent around £250 on the other half this year. For the past few years we've only done kids and families but decided to have a budget of £50 each but I have clearly blown that 5 times over.

Seems only right and proper that you should spend 10-20% more on her/him than you do on yourself following the Albion. Take the cost of your ST, add in travel costs, beer/food, any away tickets (plus travel, beer etc for the away games), add say 15% - to show her/him that they mean more to you than your hobby. Job’s a good ‘un.

Note: I said “you”. Different rules apply to me.

I'll think about it, but won't spend anything.

Well, it's the thought that counts.

Thirty years married so running out of ideas as she has most things she wants. Don’t know at the moment but will be a fair bit over £20!
