You're listening to the not the top 20 podcast this is the Monday pod talking all

things EFL with me Ali Maxwell and him George Ellick this show is sponsored by Betfair we thank

them for their continued and strong support of this podcast all season

both on on mondays and on thursdays as well thank you for tuning in for choosing to listen to

us today george and i off the back of a fabulous evening with an array of the great and good

of the eFL on park lane pretty swank, wasn't it? Bit of black tie action,

George. Yes, it was very swanky. I'm honored to be there as ever. It's one of those where I kind of,

it's so great to be surrounded by so many interesting people that it's kind of impossible not to

walk away feeling like you could have spoken to about 50 more people,

especially because I, unlike yourself, it's becoming a bit of a bit of a tradition, I would say,

at the EFL Awards, we meet for a pint together before.

Take the edge off.

We walk in together.

We sit together at dinner, speak to a couple of people and

then I duck out at about midnight and you stay till the to the very very end just about 3 a.m.

And what's ironic about that is I kind of feel like that that is a mirror image of our

genuine way the general way that we approach our social lives where normally you're the

one who

heads home a bit earlier.

But, um, well, mate, if every night out in my life was the EFL Awards, I'd probably stay till

the end.

Yeah, that's fair.
