The Anytime Notebook

A joyful stumble through the EFL coupon covering what we saw, what we thought and how we will make it pay. A trappy weekend of 90 minute sample sizes informing brazen assumptions, just the way we like it.

Be Lucky

One hour of Classic Notebook. We rattle off JBs Antepost Book including the best even money shot money can buy, then it's into Match Day One. John has history with rampaging wingers in August while one Norwich Centre Half loves the sun on his back. 

Good to be back. Be Lucky

Not long now. Welcome to the Anytime Notebook, home of the Notebook Antepost Guide, available for £8.95 from the internet. Gavin is joined by friend of the show Steve Freeth to look at the joys of being first to price up, set the narrative and see the early money. We talk preseason form, clubs catching the eye and paying out on Aune Heggebo in October.

Be Lucky.

Another 45 minutes in the compnay of Phil Smith, John Bywater and Gav, covering the Championship, League One and League Two Top Goalscorer Markets where not a single bet has been laid across the country.

We profile the contenders, discuss the opening prices and get ready to press GO.

The best of hours spent in the compnay of Phil Smith, John Bywater and Gav, covering the Championship, League One and League Two, we break down the markets, highlight the narratives, price movements and where our money might be going this season.

Whether you're building an ante-post portfolio, looking for value in the goalscorer markets, or simply want sharper insight into the English Football League, The Notebook Early Show gives you the information to make better betting decisions.

It's that podcast you remember, +17.25pts for the season and all it took was for us to not have a bet for 3 months. Pleasure to see in the final coupon of the season with John, including jokes.

[Donald] Love is in the air. Petrol Stations marking up their [Tim] Flowers. A reduced coupon due to more than enough EFL teams being far too ambitious and playing in the FA Cup 4th Round. Nothing of the sort here, all we hear is, Radinio Balker.

Be Lucky.

Best thing about bad beats is after the dramatic sense of misjustice you console yourself knowing you must be SEEING IT LIKE A BEACHBALL. We go again.

Be Lucky

Turns out “we’ll be back next week” was a bit optimistic. After a short break that turned into a long one, The Anytime Notebook is back. Still chasing anytime scorers, still talking ourselves into bets we probably shouldn’t, and still pretending this is the week we’ve cracked the puzzle. Be Lucky.

Let's see out 2025 in the same way as we welcomed it in, by picking out the value losers on the EFL Goalscorer Coupon to the sound of Crosswits.

Happy New Year when we get there, lots of love, Gavin and John.
