Whilst an open top bus parading through the centre of Moseley might still be the stuff of fantasy, Moseley Town F.C’s second succesive win means Moseley is once again on Birmingham’s sporting map. Moseley Town’s glorious cup win against Queslet FC means some silverware is almost certainly assured this season, at least for the coffers of the Jug Of Ale.

The feelgood factor for Moseley cannot be underestimated. Mr Nima has already commited funds to strengthen Moseley’s strike force and is said to be negotiating with Barcelona for a surprise winter signing. He told us yesterday “I can’t really say anything until the European transfer window is open but Rivaldo is very impressed with the facilities at Moseley town and is looking forward to soaking up the cafe culture of South Birmingham.” In other news the Hare and Hounds will possibly release Ronaldo (see Eye issue 7). He is said to be unhappy after his recent move from The Fighting Cocks and is looking forward to some first team action rather than pulling pints in Kings Heath.

Moseley manager Stu “Scarface” Haresnape appears to be non-plussed by his potential new recruits, he told us “We’ll have to see if the lads can hack it at this level. I intend to try them out on our training regime of beer and fags and see if they can find a place in the side. Obviously if either of them has a car it will be a bonus as we have to train in Acocks Green these days.”

With Moseley Town averaging a gate of nearly five or six people on match days it looks like a new Moseley stadium is soon to become a reality. Developers are looking into complusory purchase of Moseley school and the surrounding area in order to build a purpose built stadium to rival the Nou Camp. Some bitter rivals of Moseley Town claim that such talk is a little premature after only two wins but we say “Fuck ’em”
