“Last year I spent it in Manchester with my partner but she’s not here for this one.
“I will go to Matty’s, have Christmas dinner and a couple of beers, and it’ll be like nothing different.”
Ellis says he may avoid Boxing Night in Wigan this year after he was left feeling embarrassed on the traditional fancy dress event 12 months ago.
“I went out with a couple of the boys last year,” he added.

“I thought they looked silly until I went out and then I was the one getting all of the looks.
"I couldn’t believe it, I felt a bit silly.
“Me and Custy (Cade Cust) might duck away for a couple of days, just get our heads down and do a bit of sightseeing.
“I might stay off the drink and give myself every chance for the new year.”
