Customer Reviews
Best EFL show by miles
A long-standing fan of a League 1 club - now Championship💪 - I was late to the EFL podcast scene but this season I decided to regularly listen to a few of them. Conclusion after a year of listening: Not the Top 20 is the only one you need. The insight and dedication of the presenters is second to none. Whereas some podcasts take a cursory whip through the top stories (which are usually common knowledge anyway - so why bother?) and major on the big clubs, NT20 brings the stats and analysis which fans can’t get enough of. No matter which EFL team you support, the hosts sound like a fan of your team, knowing all the players and the tiny nuances of your club. Only negative is the betting association, which is part of a wider issue in sport and prohibits some of their content to younger fans (although this is handled in a responsible way). In all, a brilliant podcast which will have you looking forward to the next episode dropping. Keep up the great work!
The best EFL podcast out there
These boys have forgotten more than most other pundits will ever know about the EFL
Best football podcast
What is there to say? Loads…
Ali and George professionally deliver an incredibly informative, balanced and entertaining review/preview of all things EFL. Their knowledge of the clubs, players and coaches is highly impressive such that their pre season predictions have been pretty accurate and show great insight.
Even if my club get promoted by some miracle to the dark side (PL) I will continue to follow this excellent podcast.
Keep it up, Ali and George!
