Nowt wrong with being a happy clapper , but I don't think Ahsan is trying to be vitriolic but is generally trying to pose the questions that the press are asking and exploring if there are problems.I am afraid I am an old (71), "Happy Clapper" City fan and I find Ahsan regular, and pretty vitriolic, criticisms of players, team selection, tactics and even Pep, tiresome and boring.
Just now switched off as he was slagging off Leroy after last night's performance...
Call me a snowflake if you want but there is more than one way to phrase negative views...
(Howard Hockin is, of course, a complete star!)

Totally agree. Great pods. Loads of great City pods. We are blessed to have them all.Personally think ahsan does a great job on the pod and always like listening to his views. The whole thing is done really professionally. Only very minor gripe was earlier in week when it was clear one of the guys hadn’t watched the match. But overall great value for money.

I quite like "The Man City Show" with Nigel Rothband. I haven't tried the Noisy neighbours, so that is one to add to the pot :)93:20, Bluemoon and Noisy Neighbours are the 3 I never miss. Have tried the others but don’t work for me.

I'm doing stuff for Bolt From The Blue along with Walter "Take it, take it, take it, all day long" Smith & Victoria Gregory, who runs the Chicago Supporters Branch, plus her dad David. Mike, who runs the site, tells me it's listened to in 70 countries. Apparently we'll be doing a 'Peter Swales' special at some point in thenot too distant future.
9320 is also very well done. Ahsan is a brilliant host and asks some searching and interesting questions and they also have a great team. I'm also working on a Billy Meredith podcast in their Talking History series at the moment but there's so much to fit in with him.
The City Watch one that Ian Cheeseman did was good. Hope the guys and girls can get that going under a new banner. Nigel Rothband's Man City Show is another I listen to regulalry. Nigel's a good host and it has a nice sense of humour.
Our own Bluemoon podcast is another good one although that'svery slick and professional; more of a magazine show than a podcast like the others. It is what Blue Tuesday should have been and wasn't.

Bolt from the Blue, Man City Show and Talking City, Forever Blue are good too. Shame about Pale Azure as I liked that as well.93:20, Bluemoon and Noisy Neighbours are the 3 I never miss. Have tried the others but don’t work for me.
