I don’t know how legit the links have been so far, but I’m liking that it’s mostly players on the way up, like Currie and Spencer were.
We have a 1year window where we can use exploit dropping from the champ financially and stature. If we stay down, we are another lg1 club
He's excellent. Be some battle to win to get him. And will be a sizable fee required given York well backed and have no desperate need to get cash. #oufc
Oxford United are among the sides showing interest in York City defender Malachi Fagan-Walcott.
York have rejected a £750,000 bid from Hearts this summer for the 24 year old.

@ChipsyYCFC I don't think a fee agreement would be the problem if we want to spend, it's getting ahead of other clubs in choice. Very wealthy owner (ex Inter Milan). Broken our transfer record 3/4 times in the last year. Potential to bring in a few million in sales over the summer also.
@nth09@SimonPeach The timing of the spying on us was just after we'd sacked our manager and had a caretaker in. But yes I think it's pretty likely they've spied on the majority of the division.
@TheYellow_Page@JaggsZak 31 in September and ultimately at the point the clause is active, is a League One defender. Not much money in that combination.
Closing the door on the 25/26 season and our time in The Championship, at least for now. Thank you to everyone who listens to this episode and any episodes. #oufc
🆕🎙️ The final pod of the 25/26 season. We reflect on the run-in, pick out some standout moments (good and bad!), and dissect the squad.
Cheers for listening and engaging all season - we still have fun making it and hope you enjoy it! #OUFC

10 years of top quality content. Filled a huge void that was in-depth EFL coverage. My weeks wouldn't be the same without. The addition of The England Pod is a slice I didn't even know I was missing. Gutted not to make tonight but the turnout & wellwishes are so well deserved
NTT20 at 10.
On May 11th 2016, we sat down in Ali’s kitchen to record our first podcast.
How would Sean Dyche’s Burnley and Aitor Karanka’s Boro - plus strikers Andre Gray and Jordan Rhodes - do in the Premier League? And how will Carlos Carvalhal and Barry Bannan’s Sheff Wed fare in the Play-Offs?
Then we had to work out a name for this show. We ended with something a bit weird and a bit of a mouthful - Not The Top 20 ffs - but it wouldn’t matter much would it because who would actually listen?
At first, a few hundred of you. Now, tens of thousands more. And now this is our full-time job and we absolutely love it.
So much has happened in that time - too much to remember on this 30 minute tube journey.
The landscape of media, podcasting and football itself is completely different. Specifically, how about the EFL content landscape? Bloody hell. We started with a mission to provide Football League podcast chat to fans of Football League clubs, because it literally didn’t exist. Now, EFL fans have everything they could possibly want at their fingertips. We’re so pleased to be a part of a thriving landscape, so pleased at how many people spend their own time making amazing content around these amazing leagues.
Our personal and professional lives certainly look very, very different! We’re lucky to have incredible family and friends, and pleasingly we are still incredibly close friends. There is no doubt that none of this could have happened without the friendship that we already had before we began, and the determination and single-mindedness that we’ve shown as a partnership. Better than the sum of our parts? Absolutely. High floor over high ceiling? No doubt.
Our consistency is perhaps what we’re proudest of - we’ve not missing a show during the season for about half a decade now, even when we both had babies within 4 weeks of each other! The content hamster wheel can be relentless but we always spur each other on.
What stands out is the sheer number of amount of amazing opportunities we have had because of NTT20. People we’ve met. Friends we’ve made. Work we’ve done. Places we’ve been. Laughs we’ve had. Hot rain, win-to-nil winter, John Seymour, get your Rushian Hepburn-Murphy name etc.
It’s honestly beyond anything we could possibly have dreamed, mainly because none of this existed until the last ten years of this history of the world!
Thank you to those who have listened to - or watched - the show, and to all of you who have done much more than that. NTT20 Squad. https://t.co/xtCzb2d6wC subscribers. Live show and meet-up attendees. Friendly commenters.
Thank you to everyone who has lent us their talents and their time to work for NTT20, to help us do things we can’t do ourselves and make the content so much better and the business so much more viable.
Thank you to anyone that has ever paid us, either as sponsor or subscriber or merch-buyer or a TV/radio producer. Building out the business has been exciting & challenging, particularly over the last few years. The exciting highs of a few years of TV work were followed by some scary lows when it all vanished 😬
Anyone that has decided that we’re worthy of some £££ is responsible for the fact that we’re still going, doing more and more and more than ever and owning it all ourselves.
We’ve added The England Pod with DCW into the mix and, while that’s one for another day, good God that really has been wild - today we had our Visas approved to go and cover England at a World Cup. What is going on?! Who knows, but let’s not stop to wonder. We’re gonna keep growing and growing and see what happens.
This year, NTT20 Pod’s audience has increased by 44%. How on earth that happens ten years in, we’re not sure. We thought people would get bored of us. Maybe they will, but the growth is incredibly encouraging for the next ten… NTT20 at 20? God, that’s going to be a long post.
Thank you for reading. Thank you for everything. We march on, EFL till the earth explodes. Beers tonight with 50+ NTT20 ultras. Wow. Go well.
League One Squad Rules
- Register 22 players over 21
- Goalkeepers don't count
- Under 21 is classed as born 1st January 2005 or after
We currently have 24 players meeting the criteria for registration, including the obvious dead wood.

@Smith227Steve@AnalyticsOxford Do you agreed on 24 players that would count towards the 22 squad cap as below? Those in red either being sale risks or very unlikely to be around come window close
@PaulLighty24910 But then what of it had been York v Carlisle for example. Those stadia would then be too small. 52k last season. Just pot luck on which teams contest it especially with some decent sized clubs for the level being in the league.
Some stunning photos from the #ycfc bus parade. Delighted for all those I know associated with the club. Been some set of celebrations and so deserved after the tribulations of the last ten years. Could easily go straight through League Two.
@oxfjackm@AnalyticsOxford So can't reference players who had a good impact in half a season, but you can reference players who had little to no impact in half a season (Burey, Matete, Perkins).
