We’ve had a festive feast of football as 2023 reaches its conclusion, and you can find all the latest action and reaction from a bumper week of matches across the EFL in The Football League Paper on New Year’s Eve.

Casting an eye towards 2024, we look at the players EFL clubs will be chasing in the January transfer window.

In our Player Profile, we put Bristol City’s exciting young forward Tommy Conway under the spotlight, and our resident expert Chris Dunlavy discusses the unpredictable nature of loans and League Two Salford’s managerial churn.

From the same division as Salford, loan defender Brad Hills aims to push on for glory with Accrington Stanley in 2024.

And we pick out our favourite quotes with the best of the managerial post-match offerings from the first half of the season.

Thank you to all our readers for your continuing support through 2023, and we look forward to seeing you again in 2024!
