Mike Powell departs...

[Phil]

From Powelly's Twitter feed:

@powelly6: Thanks @moseleyrugbyfc for the last 3 years have loved my time at Billesley Common. The future looks bright for you in the @champrugby 1/2

@powelly6: Time for the next chapter for me. Thanks to all the @moseleyfans for the warm welcome and support an all the players/staff past + present

All the best to Mike for his three years of dedication, graft and experience. I have no doubt that what he brought to the team on the pitch was matched by his off the field work.

Now the wait for the names in the frame to replace him. A new unpolished diamond or an hardened, wise old owl who's seen it all? Or both?

Good luck for the future Mike and thanks for an interesting 3 years.

All the best, Mike. And thanks.

All the very best Mike. Brought a lot of experience to our club. Nice chap too.

Best of luck for the future Mr Powell. Swing those hips.

Thank you for your last three years Mike. I'm sorry you had to tear your biceps with us at Jersey but I do hope it won't handicap you too much in holding a welcome pint. At least Pam was happy with your company next to her on the plane back from Jersey that day. Look after yourself and God Bless. Pam and Phil Hall xx

All the best Mike you will be missed.

All the best Mike for the future wherever that might be.
I wonder who will be captain. I would go for Brightwell or Siggery.

[studleyken]

Chris yes. Ed noooooooooooo!!!!!

[studleyken]

Having said that, if they did have Ed the club parties would be awesome?

[leehumph]

Haha Ken.. Chris B is a must for captain. Maybe not as vocal as some but leads by example. The respect he's gained within the camp is incredible.

As for Ed, well let's just leave him to captain himself!!

Good luck & thank you to Mike Powell.

After a difficult first season with injury & then too many yellow cards when he came back - for the last 18 months outstanding play and leadership. Rarely have we seem Moseley pack going backwards - pity we couldn't get one more season from Mike P.

Cum on U Mose !
