With the geese sufficiently corpulent and the big day crowning on the horizon, Pies are once again here to help with our annual Christmas Football Gift Guide.
You know what Italian football fans are like: volatile, disorganised, temperamental, papers always flying everywhere.
Thank heavens, then, that Fiorentina have sought to reign in the chaos by producing their very own range of suitably purple paper clips.
What’s more, you can buy an entire jar of the things for just €4 (approximately £3.50) plus P&P from La Viola’s online shop…

Quite honestly, we can think of nothing more Christmassy than a tidy and orderly desk.
