Episode 474: In hindsight maybe the guys from Post90 Podcast and The City Boys have been right all along?

This week Mike Anderer and Mike Allen turn on the mics during the last 15 minutes of the NYCFC away match in Cincinnati and then discuss their reactions after

Will the Real NYCFC Please Stand Up? / Ep 470 / Blue City Radio

Sep 25 2024 117 mins  
Episode 470: For a club and organization that talks so much about identity and focusing on their own style of play NYCFC’s performances are the furthest thing from consistent.
