After impressive midweek performances by Swansea City and Wrexham, Iwan and Sam believe both clubs can mount a serious challenge for the play-off places in the Championship. Although still early in the season, the pair agree the door to reach the top six is wide open in the absence of any outstanding rivals.Another unexpected home defeat for Cardiff City put the breaks on their charge back to the top of League One, while there is no sign of Newport's horrendous run coming to an end.Iwan confesses to some violent outburst, while Saint Sam confirms his place as the 'Gary Lineker' of Wales. And talking of Wales, will Aaron Ramsey play a part in the friendly with England or the crucial qualifier that follows against Belgium?

On this week's show, the YP's football writing team of Stuart Rayner and Leon Wobschall join host Phil Harrison to salute the gallant efforts of our League One clubs as they took on Premier League opposition in the third round of the League Cup.Barnsley, Huddersfield Town, Doncaster Rovers and Bradford City all had giant-killing opportunities but, ultimately, it proved beyond them, despite some impressive performances. It is in League One where Yorkshire continues to thrive, though, Bradford City going top of the table after beating leaders Cardiff City, while Barnsley, Huddersfield Town and Doncaster Rovers remain close behind. At the other end of the table, we ask whether there is cause for concern at the New York Stadium after Rotherham United's 1-0 defeat at home to Stockport saw the Millers drop into the bottom three.We salutes Leeds United's first away win of their Premier League season and their first goals from open play since their return to the top-flight.In the Championship Middlesbrough moved four points, while Hull City – at home to Southampton – and Sheffield Wednesday – on the road at Portsmouth – recorded impressive wins. But there are still major causes for concern at Bramall Lane after Chris Wilder's first game in charge saw the Blades extend their losing start to the season to six games, conceding late on to lose 1-0 at home to Charlton.

We then turn to Newport County's tough start and the chairman's public message, asking what should change on the pitch and how the club communicates with supporters. Finally, we zoom out to the international calendar changes from 2026, how longer autumn windows could affect EFL teams, and whether League One should routinely pause during international breaks.Enjoy the episode, send us your thoughts, and follow The EFL Hub for more.This Podcast has been created and uploaded by EFL Hub.

One for the ages.Tom hosts with Mark, Chris and Archie to deconstruct an absolutely batshit afternoon in Luton. Two penalties (could have been at least four), two red cards (one on and one off the field), five goals (including a comedic winner), ten minutes of injury time, another injury, too many heroic clearances to count, and too many standout performances for just one man of the match. League One – we love you, we do.In Part Two, a review of the Fans' Forum and the ultra-transparent overview provided of club finances. There's alignment on the strength of the content, but differing opinions on where the focus could or should have been. Overall, though, it has been a great week for everyone at Home Park – even if the CEO remains conspicuous in his absence.Onwards to bottom-of-the-table Peterborough at home, in confident mood.

We won! We won convincingly! Alex hosts with Chris and Seve both over the moon to talk through the best performance of the season. So far…In part one, a review of all four - four! - goals. Improved set plays, a couple of strokes for the ages and a competent, clinical number 9 all draw praise. Some comical defending, a dodgy penalty and a late consolation for the visitors do little to dampen the mood. Part two sees a wider perspective. Managerial flexibility, loan signings, some confusing club comms and, sadly in a sign of the times, the club statement on racist abuse are the focus before a sense check on League One and our progress to date.One for the ‘you are too negative' listeners, it's amazing what a win can do. Bring on Luton Town. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Jason McGovern, TJ Ramini and Marlon via Spurs Kings TV as Luka Vuskovic registered a goal and an assist on his first appearance in our colours as we began a new era under Thomas Frank with a 2-0 win at Reading on Saturday. The 18-year-old defender, who linked up with the Club earlier this month after his move from Hajduk Split was agreed in 2023, was introduced as a half-time substitute against the League One side and wasted no time in making an impact, flicking on a corner from fellow new boy Mohammed Kudus - who also caught the eye with an impressive display - to tee up Will Lankshear for the opener four minutes into the second period, then picking out the bottom corner with a sharp finish from Kudus' pass a few moments later to double our lead. With two lots of 11 players deployed either side of half-time, it was a useful opening to our pre-season campaign and gave our new Head Coach a chance to run the rule over plenty of players.
