I specifically ignored that part of the OP since this is a forum."I know some folk take an instant dislike to fan channels, podcasts and vlogs and if you're one of them kindly go elsewhere, if you don't like them that's fine, this is not the place for you."
I quite like the 9320 pods for interesting discussions. Forever Blue (I think) is good for tactical insights on how pep sets up his tactics each game. Bolt from the Blue is good with prestwich Blue. And I listen to citizens abroad for their pov on city.
Not for me. But I can understand why City fans watch them.
I don't think we are promoting them, just laughing our bollocks off at them.I don’t like how we promote the ones from fans of other clubs with free advertising via Bluemoon. Especially a certain few Rag ones who aren’t even Rags and are just actors playing the football world like a fiddle for money.
I have one which is more a hobby as I simply love listening to former players stories from days gone by.

I specifically ignored that part of the OP since this is a forum.
noun. /ˈfɔːrəm/ /ˈfɔːrəm/ an event or medium where people can exchange opinions and ideas on a particular issue;
I also made a few points that aren’t to do with whether I like them or not:
I don’t think we should give free advertisement to ones of fans of other clubs, and I don’t like how these people can seemingly jump the queue for away tickets.
I think the best ones will be those that have a rotating cast or a selection of a wide range of views from a wide range of people rather than those ones where it seems to be the same person or same few individuals all the time trying to make themselves a celebrity.Fair enough, I only added that paragraph because I started a similar thread six or seven years ago, when the football social media landscape was very different, and it got bogged down with posts that consisted of little more than they're all shit.
Premier league football is a global phenomenon, there's an insatiable appetite for stuff on high profile clubs and there isn't enough quality stuff to satisfy it, hence the proliferation of shite.
I want to read opinions on whether stuff is any good or not, what I don't want to read is a curse on all their houses because it gets us precisely nowhere.
Whether we like it or not fan channels, vlogs and podcasts are here to stay.
Yes Cheesey has his critics (tends to be personal rather than critical of his product) but I like them because he doesn't go for clicks and sensationalism and having folk scream obscenity after obscenity over a player or manager. He doesn't pontificate endlessly about tactics or other nonsense but simply allows fans of all ages a chance to have their say.That's a good one to watch. Ian Cheesman's blog seems to get a lot of stick but I love it. He gives a bit of history on places, gets interviews with ex players and gives fans a chance of a say.
