This is part of the start of your weekend.

It's the NTT20 betting show.

It's sponsored by Skybet.

It's George and me, Ali, making betting picks ahead of a full slate of EFL action. It's for over 18s only and we are talking about betting. That comes with significant risks, so understand them. Never bet

more than you can afford to lose, never chase your losses and head to gambleaware.org to brush up

on all of the risks that come with gambling so that you can avoid them. Hi, George. Hello, Ali. You're looking well. Thank you, or shall call you me, Ali, as you called yourself, for being in the show, which I enjoyed. A bit like, Ali G's Majuli. A simpler time. Yeah, maybe. In some ways. In some ways. You made things look pretty simple last week.

Nat Barnett, 21 to 20. Good winner. Next best, Wimbledon 15 to 8. Great winner.

Thank you. Great pick.

Thanks.

Actually, really enjoyed your reasoning, really enjoyed how it played out.

Enjoyed the performance from AFC Wimbledon.

Acker Swirv, Huddersfield, 19 to 20, they won. 1-0. So you're 1 from 2 with Ackerswerve. Now, we did have a comment from John Wilson on the Spotify, who said, can anyone tell me, is the Acker Swirv an actual bet? Because I've no idea how to place one. Okay, so Aker Swerve, I'm telling you a bet not to have. Yeah, the absence of a bet. Yes. Effectively, Acker Swirb is, if you're going to do an Aca on a Saturday, or over the weekend, I'm telling you to leave this one out because I think they're a vulnerable favourite. Your goal scorer was Iwata. I've just written, ah, because his midfield partner scored instead. So the logic was fine. What did I say? They would most likely score from a slid shot from the edge of the box by a midfielder, and it was Pike, not O'Wata. Upsetting. I got my nap up as well, so we are, yeah, clean sweep of naps so far in the betting show proper. Mill will draw no bet, doing the business

at 7 to 4 up at Bramall Lane. I got three out of five in the Eggman. That's my five-fold

Acker. Cambridge did not do the business for me at Bristol Rovers, and Bradford conceded

an injury time to draw one all. A goal score a corner. Laurent Tully moved clubs in between me picking him and the weekend.

So that bet was void, the divine ponytail, as I call Laurent Tully,

going close on debut for Argyll.

But my bet was void, and I did have enough time to tweet out for anyone who follows me on Twitter,

and maybe more specifically, to let the NTT20 squad betting channel know

that I had re-diverted my one-point stake

onto Stephen Duke McKenna of Harrogate,
