Ahead of next season, we have recorded a special pod to cover off all the chaos, nonsense and news from the past few months.

We chat through the decision to move a Gloucester home game to Villa Park, European trips to Cork and Edinburgh; Series wins for England and the Lions (with all the associated drama and controversy) plus the Red Roses squad announcement.

We will be back for the new season in a few weeks. Until then enjoy the rest of your summer!

Despite all the curses, hexes and prayers Bath completed the treble and won their first Premiership title in nearly 30 years, beating Leicester in a closely fought but poor game of rugby.

We discuss the final briefly, before turning on to more important matters such as Loz's Season review, Gloucester announcing two surprise signings; Gloucester Hartpury unveiling re-signings of their own plus details of the Season ticket prices and all PWR home games at Kingsholm.

There will be a few more special bonus podcasts covering the Lions series against Australia to come, but we would like to thank everyone of our guests and of course sponsors this season - in particular PGT LLP for their incredible support. But most of all you, our amazing subscribers and listeners!

As Bath and Leicester win their respective playoff Semi-Finals, we look back at both games and preview this weekends final (PLEASE LEICESTER, DO IT FOR US!). We also discuss Afo Fasogbon signing on for a few more years (at least) while Tomos Williams becomes the fourth Cherry and White to win Premiership Player of the Season.

Finally both Russ and Jim give their end of season reviews and we have a brief discussion about the Top 14 and ProD2 Promotion and Relegation.

Despite a bonus point win over Northampton on the final day, Gloucester missed out on the playoffs by 2 points - finishing 5th overall. We discuss the game and Snowy provides his Season Review (we all do the same over the coming weeks).

We also discuss the Combination Cup finals day; the results and the games but also the unfortunate incident involving Longlevens and Matson 'supporters'. Finally we chat about the recently announced plans for an alternative R360 competition headed up by Mike Tindall and former Bath DOR Stuart Hooper.

A bumper podcast with lots to get through! Firstly Gloucester kept their Playoff hopes alive with a vital bonus point win away at Falcons. Other results (sort of) went our way, meaning that although not entirely in the Cherry & Whites' hands, there is a clear path to a top four finish.

Meanwhile we discuss the latest announcements of leavers and new signings at Gloucester - including the disappointing confirmation that Chris Harris, Ruan Ackermann and Freddie Clarke are all off to pastures new (yet to be confirmed).

Elsewhere as England announce their first 33 man camp ahead of this summers tour of Argentina and the USA, with four Glaws players included, we also chat about the continuing psychodrama that is Welsh Rugby.

Finally, we hope you enjoy hearing about Jim's experience at the Dragon Boat Festival (Did you spot our banner kindly provided by PGT LLP?)

Another game at Twickenham ends in defeat for Gloucester, this time meaning that the Cherry & Whites playoff hopes hang by a thread as Quins outmuscled and outplayed us. We chat through what went wrong, the frustrations of our continued inconsistency - particularly in the big games - and what we can expect in the final two games of the regular season.

Meanwhile, we did get the Lions squad announcement and Tomos Williams is deservedly in! We share our thoughts and decide who was lucky, or hard done by in the selections.

Finally a brief chat about the other news in the Womens' game as Sale continue to build for next season.

We learnt last Thursday of the passing of Gloucester Rugby great Mickey Booth. Our thoughts are with all of his family and friends. We were joined by Ian Taylor whose father played for Gloucester alongside Mickey in the 1960's to share his memories.

Meanwhile Ed and Russ attended the 4ED Charity event at Kingsholm reminiscing about the 2003 Cup Final victory over Northampton - the last time we won at Twickenham.

Northampton themselves pulled off an incredible win away in Dublin to secure a Champions Cup Final place against Bordeaux, who beat reigning holders Toulouse. We chat through two excellent Semi-Finals.

Finally, we give our view on the Lions squad (to be announced on Thursday afternoon) and whether Tomos Williams will find himself selected.

A packed week this week, as we discuss a record breaking home win over Exeter Chiefs at Kingsholm. Gloucester winning with their biggest ever points total in a League game, scoring wonderful tries and seeing superb performances across the pitch.

Meanwhile Chiefs themselves are in turmoil with coaches placed on suspension and owners ranting in the dressing room.

Also this week Gloucester announced a new signing in Glasgow backrower Jack Mann, Dan Murphy becomes Sean Lynn's replacement at Glos-Hartpury and Macron take over as the clubs kits supplier.

Apologies for the problems last week and the missed pod. Despite our best efforts, the file simply wouldn't upload - which is a shame because we can guarantee it was our funniest, most informative and almost certainly greatest pod ever (if you believe that you will believe anything).

This week, Ed chat with Gloucester supporter Ross Hancock - who just happens to be the Head of Marketing and Commercial at Cornish Pirates. They chat through the last couple of weeks and the two disappointing results and second half performances, before discussing the recently announced developments in the Championship and the proposed revamp of the Premiership and how it might affect Pirates and the game more widely.

A sell-out crowd saw one of the most complete performances from a Gloucester side in recent memory. Unlike some of the more impressive results that we have seen in the George Skivington era (64-0 versus Bath or the hammerings given to Sarries or Newcastle) this was against the 2nd place team in the league who had just come off the back of an 8 try demolition of Chiefs. We dissect the tries, the performances, the strategy and simply how much fun it was to watch!

Unfortunately the good news didn't carry over to the balance sheets as Gloucester posted a near £3m loss. Loz uses his Accountancy acumen to run through the specific reasons as we try to understand what English Rugby needs to sort out the financial chaos.

Finally we chat though the rumours of a joint bid to host the World Cup from Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE and why it is a terrible idea that is likely to happen.
