On this week’s official EFL podcast, Mark Clemmit delivers two gentlemen with a rich footballing pedigree. First up, Michael Bridges casts his expert eye over all of this week’s big stories across the EFL, and Clem then welcomes 24 year old George Hirst onto the podcast for the first time, who assesses his Ipswich side’s remarkable run of form of late, and what it was like growing up in the shadow of his father, Sheffield Wednesday legend, David Hirst!

On this week's official EFL podcast, Mark Clemmit is joined by Karl Robinson, who 3 weeks ago was sacked as Oxford United manager following a run of bad results. Karl had been at the club for 5 years and enjoyed some great times there, but knew the writing was on the wall with his side's form of late, and talks openly and honestly about how it felt towards the end and reflects on his tenure there having had a couple of weeks to think and put it into perspective. Karl also delivers some top class punditry for Clem on all 3 divisions within the EFL, in what is a brutally frank and fascinating listen.

It's a bumper packed episode this week, as Mark Clemmit pushes the boat out with top guests! Jon Dahl Tomasson talks about life in Lancashire away from his family, as he continues to push Rovers up the table. Also away from his family for now at least, is Exeter's Kevin McDonald, who's back on the score sheets again, having overcome a potentially life changing challenge that few of us would manage. At Valley Parade, Mark Hughes's high flying Bradford City are enjoying record crowds in Skybet League Two, and season ticket holder James Mullaney talks about the feel good factor around the club, and of his involvement in the Ukrainian Bantams supporters group, who have done much to welcome new arrivals into their community, following the Russian invasion this time last year.

On this week’s official EFL podcast, Mark Clemmit is joined by two men with very different challenges in front of them for the remainder of the season. Darren Ferguson is back at Peterborough for his 4th spell as manager, but this time it’s not a long term plan, and his aim is to keep the club steady as they plan for their long term future. Elsewhere at Hartlepool, the plan is  very much short term and is simply survival and to stay in the football league, as experienced campaigner Connor Jennings knows only too well!

On this week's official EFL podcast, Mark Clemmit is joined by top pundit Joe Thompson, to chew through all of the week's breaking news stories across all 3 divisions, as well as preview this Sunday's Carabao cup final between Manchester United and Newcastle United at Wembley!
