A short one this week due to the apple peeling season being extended by a couple of days…

This week Albion travel to Birmingham to visit Moseley for their last game of the season. On Saturday Albion secured their place in this division and Moseley did as well, so it is only pride to play for in this match.

Moseley are the winners of the EDF trophy winning over league champions Leeds. Moseley have a good ground, the bar and catering facilities in the clubhouse The bar usually has at least one real ale as well as the usual array of Guinness/Lager/Cider etc. Cost of tickets : adult ground £14, over 65’s £9, Students £5 and children under 16 £2. Grandstand seating is an additional £2, programmes are £2

The supporters travel club are running a coach price £20 per person, leaving Plymouth park & ride at 1.30pm.

Players to look out for, just cheer anyone on the pitch in an Albion shirt, make this last trip of the season a memorable one.





Cd’s Prediction, Moseley are playing well, will be close, I think 3 point difference – but which way – roll the dice and see.

Re: Spy in the Camp - Moseley
Good one. The big imponderable is how much of the infrastructure will be up and running midweek. Bring a few rations, methinks. Could be a late addition to the Highlights of 2009.

Come cheer up, my lads - 'tis to glory we steer!
