I propose we all play football - in no mans land, after we have climbed out of our respective trenches.

Are you being sarcastic? Because, it's utterly disgusting of you to take the piss out of such an occurrence.

Certainly not it's an analogy not a piss take. Whilst the Christmas Truce ccertainly happened it's unclear about the football matches.

It's unclear though if they ever actually happened. I'd like to think they did.

They think it did here

Although no pictures exist and no Germans seem to recollect it.......

It probably did though

It does seem traditional, nothing like a game of cricket after Christmas celebrations, a meal that one is suitably thankful for and much enjoyed and as well as some carol singing. Friendly competition, laughter - after all a friendly game of some sort is something everyone understands and can enjoy.
