This coming Saturday there are two things I would like to bring to everybody's attention.
Firstly after the first 15 match against Richmond, the MSA are holding a disco in the clubhouse, free to attend but please feel free to bring some mince pies along!
Secondly the club are asking all supporters to bring along a food donation for the Kings Heath food bank and Spearhead (a food parcel charity) to the game this Saturday 2nd December. The club will then be able to arrange with the charities for all the items to go out to families in time for Christmas.
Items needed are all dry store items such as rice, pasta, tinned soup, tinned vegetables (peas, carrots, potatoes,tomatoes) ; tins of beans, spaghetti, jars pasta sauces;tinned meat/fish;tinned fruit; ready made custard;tinned rice pudding; jam/honey/marmalade; UHTmilk; squash / long life fruit juice; cereals / porridge; instant hot chocolate etc.
If every MSA member brings 2 items then we alone will contribute over 160 items. What a difference it would make to local families, if everybody attending the game were to bring 2 items!
I am sure that if you see Kate on the day she will accept cash donations for these two great charities if you would prefer to do that.
Pam and I will be at the Richmond game. It was 'OK' following the lads on Plymouth twitter or whatever it was but it is never a satisfying as a live game. We're also hoping to go to the Chinnor game and, if possible, the Sedgley fixture. I say hoping because church choir commitments and other 'Christmas' related charities are raining down on us like confetti at a wedding and that's on top of extra hours at work through the later days in December.
Yet again I have sent my Christmas wish to Santa and this years wish list is the same as all the other lists I have sent since I so called retired ( ? ) - Peggy, are you reading this - namely, an extra 4 hours per day plus an extra two days per week because God only knows where on earth all the time disappears to!
All the same Come on Moooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooose
Any news on Dan Borough’s injury? Also does anyone know what happened to Kailus Hutchinson? Has he retired from rugby given his horrendous injury sustained at Darlington?
In his LinkedIn profile Kailus is listed ss a semi-pro rugby player with Birmingham Moseley from June 21 to the present. (It specifies 2 years 6 months).
What was the season and the game when fans volunteered to clear the pitch of snow. Not all that long ago. And did we do the clearing on the day before the game?.
Still frost around Moseley Central despite the sun at 2pm. But I know Billesley Common has its own micro weather conditions.

A few years back I came down to help clear the snow off the all weather pitch so the 1st XV could train during the week before a game. I lent Tommo my snow shovel - never got it back......

I can't remember the exact year but was when I was helping out with the minis (before my son was lost to the round ball game). Good turn out and we got the job down.
Although I never got my wheelbarrow back (it was a good 'un too)
Snow tends not to 'freeze' the pitch but acts as an insulation against frost, so, once the snow is removed the pitch is often playable. And snow is not as cold as frost. Well it wasn't when I was a lad up north, sithee.
Come on Mooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooose
For the record.....no involvement in spade and shovel loan thread by me, though I am sure the spades and shovels were very pleasant, I was asking which match and when did volunteers help remove snow....talking Billesley Common days. Over......
