Ali Maxwell and George Elek
If it looks like the first Friday of the football season, and it tastes like the first Friday of the football season, then guess what…
Aaaah! It’s exciting. It’s intriguing. It’s here. And we’re here - George and Ali - with the first episode of The Six Fix.
Some of you may have tuned in last season. But for the rest of you, this a podcast where we scrutinise the weekend slate and pick out six fixtures that get our juices, not just flowing, but sometimes overflowing. Two from the Championship. Two from League One. Two from League Two. And for each of them, a score prediction.
Now, this is a podcast for paid subscribers. If you’re not a paid subscriber and you do want to listen, you’ll need to sign-up here.
What’s in store this week? Well, it’s opening day. And we’d wager you didn’t expect us to quote former United States Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, but he had a lot to say about expectations, which could apply to the EFL. He said, there are:
known knowns; there are things we know we know
known unknowns; we know there are some things we do not know
unknown unknowns; the ones we don't know we don't know
In this podcast, we’re working from our own research and opinions before a ball has been kicked. And that means we’re setting ourselves the task of investigating the missing fourth: unknown knowns; the things we don’t know that we think we do. We have our hunches. We’ve told ourselves about sharp-toothed sharks, dark horses and the waters in which some clubs might flounder. And now we’re inviting you to come swim with us—the water is lovely, dive in.
