Charlotte FC's historic win streak ended on a dreary morning in a baseball stadium. How will the squad keep that disappointment from derailing the playoff positioning train? Kaylyn Kyle from Apple MLS Season Pass makes a return visit to the show to explain why Charlotte isn't looking to bounce back so much as they are looking to make a statement. Bringing back some positivity after a tough loss is always For the Crown, Baby!

A massive matchup calls for a massive guest and we couldn't be happier to welcome longtime analyst Warren Barton to the show to break down Charlotte FC's chase for win streak history against Inter Miami and Lionel Messi.

It's getting real for Charlotte FC with just 7 matches left in the MLS regular season and still needing to solidify a playoff berth. One way to do that would be continuing the 6-match win streak the Crown currently sits on, and some incoming transfers should help the cause of keeping the form we saw in a 1-0 win over Real Salt Lake. That victory was definitely helped with an epic, tone-setting coronation ceremony with Carolina Panthers Great Roman Harper, who went stone cold with a double-fisted chug on the throne and fired up the entire stadium. Roman joins John and Danny to peel back the curtain and break it all down in one of the best episodes we've ever had...it's truly For the Crown, Baby! #soccer #charlotte #carolinapanthers #transfers #winning
Archie, Archie Archie...Oi! Oi!! Oi!!!20-year-old Australian striker Archie Goodwin has arrived in the Queen City brimming with confidence, looking to win a starting job, and flashing a brilliant smile. The A-League golden boot winner from last season met the Charlotte media and shared details on turning pro as an early teenager, growing up a Liverpool fan, and keeping his mum busy as the oldest of three rambunctious brothers. Goodwin clearly sees that he's entered the Crown camp as a backup option to Idan Toklomati, but wasn't shy about his ability to offer "healthy competition" for the starting striker spot, and his history of stepping off from the bench and into the spotlight in his previous career stop at Adelaide United.DannyBrams has clearly fallen under Archie's spell early on, and after watching this, you might as well...It's For the Crown, Baby!
