Gloucester Rugby are heading to Tottenham after beating Benetton Treviso in the European Challenge Cup Semi-Final. We discuss the vast improvement on the previous week and the key performances, before running through our opponents in the Final - Sharks after their comeback win over Clermont.

We also chat about the Champions Cup Semi finals before pondering whether Stuart Barnes' Times article was too harsh or simply echoes our thoughts...we're scared too kids!

Firstly an apology as we have decided to leave a lot more of the swearing in this weeks pod, but we are sure you understand why.

Gloucester lose another league game, this time to Exeter Chiefs, but it was the manner of the defeat and the apparent contempt shown to the Season ticket holders that grates most. Four very angry Cherry Jammers discuss the match, the atmosphere at Kingsholm, where this leaves George Skivington and whether a defeat to Benetton would spell the end of his now 91 league game tenure.

We also try to lighten the mood by chatting through a great win for Glos-Hartpury in the 3rd/4th playoff of the Allianz Cup; another Grand-Slam for the Red Roses and what Billy Vunipola gets up to on a night out in Majorca.

Back to the league again and another defeat - this time expected as a young and much changed Gloucester side lost away to Saracens. However a plucky final 10 minutes took advantage of some sloppy Sarries play and secured a Try bonus point.

We chat through the game, whether the squad selection was the correct one is probably still to be decided, but we do have a discussion on the rights and wrongs of picking that many inexperienced players.

We also discuss the latest Red Roses win, a thrashing of Ireland at Twickenham - but ponder if the lack of any real opposition is going to harm the development of the women's game.

Gloucester's incredible run in knock out competitions continues with a Quarter Final win over Ospreys. It means a Semi Final against Benetton Treviso in early May. We chat through the game and how the club might need to prioritise the Cup at the expense of the remaining league games.

We also round-up the whole weekend of European fixtures, including Quins incredible win over Bordeaux. Ed gives his review of his experience at the Aviva and before we also remember two famous matches that were played at this time of year in 1996 and 1997 respectively.

After a week off, we are back to review the whole weekend of European Rugby as Gloucester reach the Quarter Finals of the Challenge Cup following a hard fought win over Castres at Kingsholm. We also chat through the previous weeks league defeat to Bristol, before discussing all the games and the Quarter Final prospects in both European competitions.

Finally find out why we have been trolled and blocked on Twitter by The Times and Sunday Times Chief Rugby writer!

This episode is dedicated to the memory of Ruby Cole, a young Gloucester supporter who tragically passed away last week. All our thoughts are with Jo and Neville at this difficult time, as well as all of Ruby's family and friends.

There is a Go Fund Me page, in memory of Ruby, aiming to raise funds for Great Western Air Ambulance. The link can be found below.

Gloucester Rugby defeated Leicester Tigers at Welford Road for the first time since 2007 after a battling display and a late Stephen Varney try, but the focus was very much on Zach Mercer who put in a performance that showed exactly why he should be in the England squad and why he is so important to the team.

We chat through the game, the performance and why once again the style of play and attacking intent is so important.

In the second half of the pod, we discuss the TMO issues from last weekend, the Women's Six Nations first round and preview our next game against Bristol.

After 9 long years, Gloucester once again win some silverware after beating Leicester in the Premiership Cup Final at a raucous Kingsholm. We chat through the game, the performances that made a difference, the atmosphere and even the music. We also discuss the final weekend of Six Nations action, including a review of another encouraging England performance - all be it, in a narrow and controversial defeat away to France.
