The Anytime Notebook

Tom Anderson. Deliah Smith. Forty Five Minutes. All the hallmarks of Notebook Podcasts from the long and distant past. Our epic edition includes plenty of League Two thoughts, some 1X2 opinion in League One and Championship Wing Backs. Be Lucky.

There is NOTHING quite like a Sunday morning review of EFL action that IMMEDIATELY sharpens your focus for a reduced midweek slate in League One and Two. Four selections. Let's go. 

Some week that one, a Marc Leonard screamer keeps the P&L ticking along but the real story were the ones that got away. Something for everyone this week, some aftertiming, some set piece threats and some 90s daytime TV nostalgia. Be Lucky

Some run this, 9/1 Emmanuel Osadebe follows in 22/1 and 18/1 winners in February, we could be happy but moaning about missing out on Ed Turns is far more fun. Gavin and John scoured the coupon for value goalscorers and they might just have found some more. Be Lucky.

Whisper it quietly, 18/1 and 22/1 winners in the last fortnight, could it be the gents are hitting a hot streak? The answer is no but it's always fun finding out. A full midweek slate and punters full of opinions, sounds like a recipe for a midweek Notebook. Be Lucky.

It's a distinctly heavy left-wing-back edition this week, there's ones we missed, Bolton ones, Exeter ones, don't worry we've ensured it's typically non-winner heavy like most weeks. Be Lucky.

Your Anytime Notebook, coming to live from John refreshing the BBC Sport Deadline Day feed. A classic this one, all the names you love in a 40 minute ramble. A bonus breaking news for those that stick around. Be Lucky.

Non runners. Non runners everywhere. The weather only served to delay more Oxford set piece despair by a few days, we're back in for more as they face Bristol Rovers. If you're thinking that it's been TOO long since Aden Flint scored a brace then john thinks the same. Be Lucky.

Fingers crossed we get some sort of slate this weekend, if we do then the opportunities look VAST. John is back with Gavin to guess the price of Barrow Centre Halfs against Crewe and wonders if Build-a-Bet Tik Tok content might be worth moving into.   Check out the Cheat Sheet on Twitter, 11/2 and 16/1 winners since the turn of the year. Be Lucky

Gavin off on another jetset adventure (not courtesy of Oxford conceding more set pieces against Coventry mind). Fear not, John here to run the rule over some of the transfer window goings on AND pick out a selection or two ahead of a bumper weekend coupon. Be Lucky.

New Year, New Notebook? Absolutely Not. Turns out we're not quite ready to desert our notebook alumni just yet, some familiar names as Gavin and John look ahead to a bumper New Years Day card in the EFL. Be Lucky.

One for the nostalgic long-time listeners as Gavin talks on his own about Kevin Nicholson free-kicks for Torquay and tries to do the moaning John would have done about Dan Sweeney on his behalf. We go out with a bang as two Due Index staples look to end the year on a high.   Be Lucky.

More EFL Goalscorer Opinion from Opinion Makers. Huge round of applause for listener Keith who walks off with the first Annual Giveaway Gifts, more to be won over the next few weekends so let us know your xG selections from each division. Be Lucky.

John and Gavin make a return looking ahead to the festive period with a notebook full of players due to stick their scoring boots on this weekend in the EFL. Listeners lasting the entirety of the episode are rewarded with the annual 'Notebook Giveaway', we'll be giving away some stocking fillers and you might not even need to back a goalscorer.    Be Lucky.

How about a full slate of EFL fixtures to purr over with John? Like ASMR for punters. Be Lucky.

A lively return for the due index fit to burst to continue a run of nicely priced winners in the column. As for the NAPS? Gavin and John do what they do best, talk about Wimbledon penalty takers and put up Liam Lindsay. Be Lucky.

Sparse EFL card? Yes, but opinions don't take International Breaks. John and Gavin talk Anthony Musaba's Hall of Fame miss and look ahead to back Matthew Pennington and Sam Stubbs like we never left 2022. Be Lucky.

The Due Index continues to pay its own way, just don't ask us to add another tab to the spreadsheet to check it. Enjoyable ramble this one, more Coventry analysis from our resident Sky Blue season ticket holder while John wades through the Bolton News set piece stories so you don't have to. Enjoy.

FA Cup weekend, we avoid the tempatation to go in search of Cray Valley centre halves up against their old club and instead focus on The Championship, John has a new Sheffield Wednesday threat in his sights while Gavin thinks Preston can take advantage of continued Coventry uncertainty from set pieces.   Be Lucky.

A momentous Pod as the gents enjoy the last pennies of profit from the Jame Tilley Brace back in 1903, regular listeners will know we were a VERY LONG price to be breaking even at any point during a season but late October not a bad effort.   We bemoan Jordan Turnbull being the only defender in history not to atone for an own goal while a Carlisle centre half gets one more chance to pay his way, w...

Some midweek EFL coupons just hit different, this was one of them, opportunities at good prices everywhere you look. All our intrepid selections need to do now is.......you know the rest. Be Lucky.

Your weekly stumble through goalscorer value across the EFL with John and Gavin. A full quota this week, names you won't have heard of, names you knew were coming, even some value towards the top of the market for a change in a couple of spots that Gavin (not John) likes. Enjoy and most of all, Be Lucky. 

John and Gavin are joined by Stuart Reid @From_The_Wing on Twitter, a renowned Set Piece Analyst who has worked with clubs across the world, analysing and driving set piece performance. We talk Stuart's career and how the landscape of set piece analysis has changed in the last decade, a fascinating discussion about the future of set pieces, and perhaps a little nugget or two to look out for the ne...

Reduced slate in the EFL you say? Watch as we pick a runner in 40% of the fixtures to keep the Notebook bandwagon rolling on. Welcome back listeners old and new, The Ex-Club system doesn't get much bigger than Grimsby Accrington this weekend, John doesn't let us down. Be Lucky.   Check out our Antepost Updates and regular pod previews over at www.theanytimenotebook.com.

The content bandwagon rolls on as Gavin and John follow up this week's Antepost Update with the usual Notebook Column looking ahead to the weekend's coupon in the EFL and highlighting some long shot goalscorers you should have on your radar. Be Lucky.   Check out our Antepost Updates and regular pod previews over at www.theanytimenotebook.com.
