  • Love the show

    I love the show and hearing more about Charlotte fc. Moving to NC on September and glad there’s a good team down there. Danny I have to say that saka is far from the best player in the world. He’s no Salah

  • Use microphones!

    I gave this 5 stars to support CLTFC pods, but for the love of all that is holy, listen to your published audio. The quality is trash. Get a microphone to plug into your refurbished laptops! You’re making the club look bad.

    But, good show. Keep at it!

    Used to really enjoy listening to both of you, but it’s getting tough. The negativity is really starting to get to me. Please bring back the good vibes and positivity.

  • Best game in town

    Have listened for past 12+ months to most episodes of this show and others (Mint City, Crowncast, Queens Pitch, Crown Corner, etc.).

    This is the most enjoyable podcast of the group. The hosts (John and Danny) come off as passionate and sincere without taking themselves too seriously.

    For the crown, baby.
