#62: You Score Goals By Taking Shots

Ahhhh we had to talk about it. We simply had to. Phil Hay wrote a piece for The Athletic with a quite remarkable suggestion about last season's Play-Off Semi-Final between Leeds & Derby and we couldn't ignore it. Elsewhere, some quite tidy away wins in the Championship - in League One we wonder about Ipswich and Donny, we discuss fan manager pressure at Sunderland and Pompey, and League Two is about Miniesta at Crewe, Argyle concerns, manager news at Oldham and Leyton Orient. There's much more than I can type, so have a listen and please do share the pod too! This podcast is sponsored by The Athletic.

We start with a group of away wins in the Championship, then run through the home wins, before finishing with a longer chat on the new managers at Huddersfield and Sheff Wed. In League One, Posh & Rotherham both scored 6, and there were some impressive away wins. In League Two, some of the early frontrunners got upset... and Swindon are just really, really good.

International Break - but still L1/L2 action to punt on. We start by asking the question: when is a good time to attack the long term betting markets again, perhaps using performance data as a guide for value, or even where data is misleading the markets? We then each select a NAP, a NB, a bonus & two 'season bets' looking at the long terms markets. Enjoy! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
