It’s back!

Yes, that’s right, the start of a new series of FANS is here, and what a start it is as Sachin is joined by BBC journalist Neil Henderson to talk all things Manchester City.

Neil is best known for being part of a team of BBC journalists who tweet the front and back pages of the national newspapers every evening and, perhaps not surprisingly, Sachin is keen to know how this came about. Neil does an excellent job of explaining before going on to speak with passion about why he feels providing this free and voluntary service is important.

It’s then onto Manchester City, the club Neil supports because, quite simply, it was his destiny to do so. And that's meant going on one hell of a ride, from the lowest of lows to the highest of Sergio Aguero-highs. Neil speaks about this with great wit and warmth, not to mention being open and honest about why he turned his back on watching City in the flesh for the best part of 20 years.

He got back into the swing of things in the 1990s and what a truly wild decade that was for City – six managers, two relegations, one incredible play-off final and one incredible player in the shape of Georgi Kinkladze. Neil has plenty to say on all of this, including providing fascinating insight into the sense of defiance that swept through City fans as everything around them was going wrong.

It’s then onto modern City and what proves to be a spiky section of the pod as Sachin lays out his grievances in regards to how the club’s fans have responded to a period of great wealth and great success and Neil comes back at him with the force of a Vincent Kompany header. OK, so it’s not as strong as that, but it’s still punchy and purposeful, as well as touching as Neil explains why City’s most recent Premier League title win meant so much to him.

Neil then talks through his all-time City XI, which is actually an all-time City XIV, before providing a lovely answer to the final question.

So download, listen and love And after you have, please Rate and Review. It would mean a lot.

Cheers!
