    Hi guys,

    Love listening to the rugby podcasts but could you set it up that the latest downloads go to the top of the list not the bottom, it’s a pain in the hoop the way it is at the moment

    Cheers

  • Episode reversal

    Agree with other punter. Reverse your episodes, shouldn’t have to scroll down. Content not as interesting as many of your contributors now making podcasts for their own titles…

    And again - my second time asking

    I note the new strap line about home of rugby, Gerry, BOD etc - presume that’s a reaction to yer man having gone to the Indo.

    Great for us punters - at least I don’t have to scroll through a couple of hundred previous pods to listen, can you sort please !!
