Not The Top 20 Podcast

For fans who live and breathe the drama below the Premier League, Not The Top 20 Podcast offers a home. Hosts George Elek and Ali Maxwell have built a dedicated community around their insightful and passionate analysis of the Football League, covering every promotion push, relegation scrap, and unexpected storyline across the Championship, League One, and League Two. The rhythm of their week mirrors the fan's experience: a detailed Monday episode unpacks the weekend's action, serving as the essential debrief, while their Betting Show later in the week provides carefully considered picks, focusing on the value and narratives often missed elsewhere. This isn't surface-level chatter; it's the detailed, informed conversation you'd have with your most knowledgeable friend. Since 2016, their consistent, high-quality coverage has earned them a loyal following and recognition like double nominations for the FSF 'Best Podcast' award. Tune into this podcast for a blend of sharp tactical breakdowns, club-specific knowledge, and the genuine enthusiasm that comes from focusing deeply on the seventy-two clubs that make the EFL endlessly compelling. You'll find the entire pyramid discussed here with a depth that mainstream coverage rarely provides, making each episode a vital listen for anyone invested in the heart of English football.
