I have met some Chagos Islanders
Utterly lovely people
I would much rather party all night with them then spend 5 minutes with Starmer.

Our Government are fucking evil.
Evil liars who just want to hurt anyone good.

UPDATE: Reality of what a government made up "human rights lawyers" really means. Flown in Customs, Police & Royal Marines going through every single box. Denied Chagossians: an emergency solar water maker; mosquito nets; bedding; mobile phone; sunglasses;clothing & ice-maker.

@MattHardyJourno Needs to send a 'remember us' to Altrad' this is Gloucester only hope.

🍒Gloucester Rugby seeking £300k in fan investment at £36.5m club valuation.
👀Owner St Quinton: "The spectre of relegation is a big no-no for American investors in the sport.

@RugbyCollective Shame, it's good to get unbiased reporting for games with a bit of humor thrown in every now and again. The other pod I listen to is CherryJam 🍒 Was looking forward to your take on the 'Big Games'
Other pods are available.👍

@BearsBeyondGate @funkyhousernb Spot on, they are in a unique position. How did we (Glaw's) get to a position that we would travel to an area of Birmingham that isn't interested in rugby & think that all usual ticket holders 14,000 will travel 65 miles & grow ticket sales without losing home advantage? Mental🤔

@grifter40 @funkyhousernb I think the whole concept has issues for all teams apart from Quins who essentially only have to walk over the road 🤣

@BearsBeyondGate @funkyhousernb Try being a Gloucester fan, travel to a home match away, get d**ked in the first 15 minutes. Out numbered on score board and in the stands - not a good advertisement for our brand and rugby in general.
English
@funkyhousernb 100% but the Big Day Out is technically a home game with the elevated expense of an away game as the Principality food and drink is more expensive. The concept is here to stay but it needs tweaking a bit I think so the balance is right. Btw Carl Bennet was in Cardiff!

@RJDhowzat @jam_rugby @jimhamilton4 It would be good for both to work together, where would that leave Skiv's?
Answers on a post card....
It all comes down to Chris Boyd's direction, would be good to hear from him.

@grifter40 @jam_rugby @jimhamilton4 Would Deacon be considered to be a much needed modern day upgrade on an old school Woodman? Just asking
English
Interesting. Nice exclusive there @jimhamilton4

Big Jim unofficially announcing Brett Deacon is off to Gloucester
English
@TomCullimore67 @jam_rugby @jimhamilton4 Grateful that Jim saud it was for '4ED' all other media outlets are focusing on Jeff's push. Going to Villa stripped the soul out of the Glaw's team. Seb's a young quality player not easy to explain why, I'm still angry we didn't turn up 😡 down to the big bosses to front up.
English
@grifter40 @jam_rugby @jimhamilton4 Yes, the silence is deafening. I think Seb Atkinson as captain should have atleast apologised to the fans. It just turned into an ugly anti climax, with the 4 try bonus point in the bag in just 16 minutes for Leicester.
English
@jam_rugby Really can't wait - it's going to be good me thinks!! 🍒
The cause is not the problem - 100% behind it, location not the best 👎, the game execution was 🩲
English
Think the club could have found something more banal and pointless than this to post?
It wasn’t ‘pumping’ George. Unless you are talking about what Leicester were doing to Gloucester in the first 20 minutes…

@JimTheGlawsFan @gloucesterrugby @QuaysideWealth Perhaps Gloucester can organise games for other teams to play, they sure as hell can't compete at this level with this team. #nomorebiggames #lettheseasonend

@gloucesterrugby @QuaysideWealth Really?
Pumping?
We took a pumping maybe.

@RMSmajorrich @gloucesterrugby @TurkishAirlines It looks empty, finding a Gloucester supporter is like finding 'Where Wally!' did you take binoculars? Heads should roll for this debacle.
English
@gloucesterrugby @TurkishAirlines Taken time to think.... it was still a shit show. Here is view from our 'upgraded' seats. Awful and no atmosphere. Home advantage conceded, performance on pitch dire.
Witton station afterwards was sooo busy. Would I do it again? No
Stay at Holm and charge a £5 ticket premium 4ed
English
@RussBrookes1981 @RugbyCollective Can't wait for your part on the Pod, this could get a bit spicy and needs to. I call it a clown show idea.
English
@RugbyCollective Got to look at the big picture, as a first half... Nope it was still awful.
English
Gloucesters big day out:
Under resourced travel ✅
‘Home’ fans outnumbered by Leicester fans ✅
First 10 minutes? Concede 3 tries
Not a great first display for the big game
English
@RugbyCollective @PaulGod70206660 I stayed holm and watched on TV, it was so bad I couldn't turn it off, it was like watching a car crash in slow motion. Embarrassing for the club, Tigers didn't really take part in '4ED' their kit was awful. Just another game for them.
English
@PaulGod70206660 It’s a crazy decision, unless it’s in your door step and can guarantee attendance
English
@jam_rugby A 'big game' needs a winning team, viewing on TV has no atmosphere, looks empty. More Tigers fans than Glaw's - lost home advantage. Cost of hire, travel, who benefits from this game? Tigers have grown their following - lost faith in this team & 3 home tickets as didn't travel.

Recording our latest pod Sunday evening, with our reaction and experiences at Villa Park. Would be great to get your views too #glawsfamily. Good, bad, indifferent. Thanks in advance! #GLOvLEI #SlaterCup #GeoffParlingSaidABadWord

@RugbyTigers Next time it's your home match - when we see our financial after this it won't be.

@RugbyPass We need you to name names, don't spare their blushes.

@CharlieFelix The only evisceration today was Gloucester's defence & try line. How bad was that to grow rugby support for Gloucester & their my team.
English
when your mate’s just been eviscerated by a teacher and you’ve got to hold it together for six seconds until the coast is clear

Craig Doyle being told to fuck off by Geoff Parling wasn’t on my bingo list today. 🤣 #GLOvLEI #SlaterCup #GallagherPrem
English
@JimTheGlawsFan @gloucesterrugby @TurkishAirlines I second this - what were you thinking, it will never get the support in an area that is a football City.
Need a full and honest review, it has embarrassed the club, you have spent too much time promoting the game than preparing for it. Supporters alienated.
English
@gloucesterrugby @TurkishAirlines Well that's worth travelling 60 miles away from home
