Blue Moon Podcast - A Manchester City Show

A weekly podcast for Manchester City fans, looking back over the news of the week and the key events from matches played. Plus previews of upcoming games, exclusive interviews and City nostalgia. Extra nostalgia episodes each week are available by joining our Patreon.

The new season is almost here, so it's time to get back to it with some brand new Blue Moon Podcast nonsense. David Mooney is joined by City fan Ciaran Murray and the Daily Mail's Jack Gaughan to review the Club World Cup campaign, discuss the transfer business so far, and preview the upcoming match with Wolves.

Sam Rosbottom runs through the big stories that we've missed since we've not been on air, while we discuss the major talking points going into the new campaign... What will a Bernardo Silva-led dressing room look like? Which players will be on the coach to Molineux and what will it mean for those that aren't? What's going on with the goalkeepers?

Dave Azzopardi from Talking Wolves is on the show to explain how their preparations have gone for the new season. Plus, because it's a bit of a busier summer than usual, we've got an early set of alternative highlights... That's before we get to the monstrosity that is the brand new 'rain' kit...

Peanut Butter in the Sliders

To review the 2024-25 season and look ahead to what 2025-26 might bring, David Mooney is joined by City fan Chris Higginbottom, Simon Bajkowski from the Manchester Evening News, and the former City captain Paul Lake for the live show at Idle Hands in Manchester.

The Escape Room that Nobody can get out of (Live Show)

After a disappointment at Wembley and an emotional goodbye to Kevin De Bruyne in a 3-1 win over Bournemouth, David Mooney is joined by City fan Richard Burns, The Athletic's Jon Mackenzie, and, from StatCity.co.uk, Adam Carter, to review the week.

What's the difference between the denial of a goalscoring opportunity on a Saturday in a Cup Final and the denial of a goalscoring opportunity on a Tuesday in the Premier League? Lots, apparently, so we'll get into all of that. Plus, we look at the bigger picture, as performances continue to improve and the team continues to look more stable (albeit with the odd 'bozo' moment).

With a crucial game against Fulham coming up where City need a point to be sure of playing in next season's Champions League, we look ahead to that and the nerves about how tight the table is in the hunt for the top five. And it's time for the alternative highlights of the season with Ciaran Murray (with a cameo from a special guest, too).

Curtains Closed, Lights Off, Nobody Move

After a dour 0-0 draw at Southampton and ahead of a third successive FA Cup Final appearance, David Mooney is joined by City fan Ally Fogg and, from StatCity.co.uk, Adam Carter. They discuss the bore draw on the south coast and look at Ruben Dias's comments after the game: Fair enough or should he keep quiet with those grumbles?

Crystal Palace fan Robbie Scotcher joins the show to give insight into the feeling at Selhurst Park ahead of the trip to Wembley. Plus, there's the match with Bournemouth... where City might be needing to play catch-up in the race to finish in the top five. 

That Bournemouth game is likely to be the final time that Kevin De Bruyne pulls on a blue shirt for a competitive game at The Etihad, so we're taking some time to look at his legacy at the club before what will be one of the toughest goodbyes ever said to a departing player.

On top of that, there's been some transfer rumours bouncing around the mill this week, so we have a look at what's been said about Florian Wirtz, Tijjani Reijnders, Morgan Gibbs-White and Tino Livramento.

The Aquarius Moon

Following Manchester City's 1-0 win over Wolves, David Mooney is joined by City fan Richard Burns and, from Sporting News, Dom Farrell, to discuss the performance and big moments from the match. They look at the displays from both Kevin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva, plus they talk about the fan protests from the first six minutes.

With already-relegated Southampton up next, Sam Rosbottom gives us the details of all the times previously when City have faced a team in the Premier League that have already been doomed to finish inside the bottom three. 

We look ahead to that game and how Pep Guardiola may approach it with the FA Cup Final also in his sights. Plus, Saints fan Glen de la Cour, from Total Saints, also joins the show to explain what's gone wrong at St Mary's this season.

What Do Particle Accelerators Actually Do?

On Sunday 7 May 2000, Manchester City completed back-to-back promotions to return to the Premier League. Just under a year after winning the third tier playoff in a dramatic match at Wembley with Gillingham, the team came from behind to win an extraordinary game with Blackburn at Ewood Park to win promotion to the Premier League. For the first time in a long time, the club were no longer under-achieving. 

In this special episode, David Mooney speaks to all of the key figures from the 1999-2000 season to get the inside story of how the club was able to complete its recovery from its lowest ever position to return to the top flight of English football.

Promotion at Blackburn: The 25th Anniversary Special

Another successful trip to Wembley for Pep Guardiola means a third FA Cup final in a row for Manchester City. David Mooney is joined by One Football's Dan Burke and, from the Manchester Evening News, Simon Bajkowski to discuss the 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest, with a particular focus on Rico Lewis after his performance in midfield.

After the impact that Nico O'Reilly has made to the team in the last few weeks, we take a look at all of the makeshift left backs that Guardiola has employed at City - and how he's changed their role in the team depending on the skills they have. Plus we look at the role that O'Reilly could have been now and the end of the season and beyond.

With a Friday night game against Wolves coming up, we look ahead to that with the help of Dave Azzopardi from Talking Wolves. Plus, there's another protest planned for that evening, so we discuss what was said in the open letter sent to Pep Guardiola by fan groups this week.

Sing a Song, Do a Silly Dance, then Play Left Back

A last-minute winner is always great for picking up the mood! Back-to-back victories have put Manchester City in a commanding position in the race for the top five this season and have got the confidence flowing again ahead of an FA Cup semi-final against one of the Premier League's highest performing teams, too.

David Mooney is joined by City fan Helen Powell and by the BBC's Chief Football Writer, Phil McNulty, to review both the wins against Everton and Aston Villa, plus to look ahead to that Wembley trip to face Nottingham Forest at the weekend.

Journalist and Forest fan Daniel Storey explains why things have been going so well for them this season (and why their Monday night win over Spurs was very, very welcome) - plus we take a look back at Stuart Pearce's time at City. It's 20 years since he took the managerial hot seat and, in a week where City face Forest, it seems appropriate to reflect on that.

David Mooney is joined by City fan Chris Higginbottom and, from the Daily Mail, Jack Gaughan to discuss Manchester City's 5-2 comeback win over Crystal Palace. The attention is on Kevin De Bruyne after a performance that rolled back they years, but there's also a discussion to be had about the 'spirit' returning, as Pep Guardiola said this week.

With Everton next up and City's final ever trip to Goodison Park, we hear from Matt Jones from The Blue Room about their recovery under David Moyes. Plus, Frankie Maguire from All Villa No Filler is on the show to preview Aston Villa's visit to the Etihad on Tuesday. Who needs to do what to qualify for next season's Champions League?

And there are more protests planned for upcoming home games around ticketing issues with the club, so Dante from The 1894 Group speaks to us about the action that's been taken recently.

I’ve Not Got Time to Google Atticus Finch’s Attitude to Old Wood

After a rather boring Manchester Derby, David Mooney is joined by City fans KC and Gaz to reflect on why the game went the way it did... and if there was anything City, in their current situation, could have done to get more out of the game. 

Dan Burke reflects on all of the previous Premier League Manchester Derbies that have ended goalless, while we also discuss Kevin De Bruyne's legacy at the Etihad. He announced he would be leaving the club at the end of the season, so we've been gathering your memories of his decade in a blue shirt.

It's Crystal Palace up next for City, so comedian and Palace fan Andre Vincent is back on the show to try and explain why they're having such a good time of it this season so far. How urgent is a win for City in the race for next season's Champions League places?

We've also had the news that season ticket and matchday ticket prices will be frozen for next season, thanks to action by supporter fan groups and the City Matters fan advisory board. What should happen next and how can this be built on for the future?

Caramelised Nuts and Sweetcorn

After four wins in the first four games, things are looking good for Manchester City this season so far. David Mooney is joined by City fan Chris Higginbottom and The Athletic's Mark Critchley to discuss the 5-1 victory over Fulham.

Up for discussion is Guardiola's latest system to control games (and how the switch in the Fulham game showed it), plus the roles of Foden, Alvarez and Haaland in a devastating attack. We also can't ignore the elephant in the room of the VAR call for 2-1...

Sam Roscoe looks at the transfer business now the summer window has closed and we discuss whether the squad is light in any areas or if that all changes when key players return from injury.
