Not The Top 20 Podcast

On Sunday night the EFL released a statement outlining the return to action of the Championship, provisionally on June 20th. We wanted to get the reaction of someone who will be heading back to work with a Championship club, so had a natter with Gary Rowett as he drove home after training. We discussed his reaction to the news on Sunday night, his thoughts on what things will be like, the lack of home advantage, player fitness, contract situations & summer recruitment.

On Sunday night the EFL released a statement outlining the return to action of the Championship, provisionally on June 20th. As ever, the statement raised a lot of question, and we wanted to make sure we provided as much clarity as possible. So on today's podcast, we welcomed Phil Hay of the Athletic to talk through some of the key points around opposition, scheduling, player fitness, venues and more. He also answered some of our questions about Leeds United and what shape they are in as they seek promotion to the Premier League. Thanks so much to Phil Hay for joining us, the magnificent Athletic writer whose coverage of Leeds and wider football during the coronavirus has been compulsory reading.

And then some little topics: - Potential Salary Cap - Favourite stadia - EFL Fantasy transfers - Nicht Die Top 18 Also - lots of stories? Mainly about food.

We start the podcast with a discussion about a discussion! Namely, how to decide the leagues, and what process is best. Then, we must warn you, this episode gets very self-indulgent. As we celebrate four years podding, we look back at some memories from the early days, early motivations and key moments! For some, it may be of no interest. But we don't talk about ourselves *too* often, so hopefully you'll allow it this time. if you've been part of the NTT20 'journey' it might be a nice listen! This podcast is sponsored by The Athletic.

The weekend just finished would have seen the Final Day of the Championship & League One regular seasons, with League Two ending the week before. We decided to put our coronavirus-blocking blinkers on for a few hours, and imagine that football has continued... Here is what we think would have happened, and what we would have enjoyed watching and discussing on three dramatic Final Days. We hope you enjoy this podcast and take it in the right spirit!
