Christmas, as we all know, is a time for peace, love and terrible knitwear.
Which is just as well, because 2015 has been quite an acrimonious year in the world of sport - particularly in the arena of unrestrained rage that is Twitter.

In no particular order, here are the 15 greatest sporting Twitter spats of 2015. Do let us know if we've missed any doozies though, because we've had enough peace and love, plus this jumper is beginning to itch.
