November 14th 2006: Hello again I've just been sent an email to update my column by our web designer, he must have come out of highbernation and decided to do a bit of work for a change. This week aim going to talk about what the club is up to and how well it is doing.

Since the start of the new season and with Mickey Dewhirst at the helm as club coach improvements amongst the squad and there playing ability have seen the club rise to 4th place in the second division. New players such as Paddy Dolan,Simon Jevons,and veteran Paul Rawson plus the young players like Gary Lee, Luke Charlesworth and Chris Metcalf have given the team strength pace and experience and is looking like quite an exiting team.

Meanwhile off the field club members such as Jai Taylor and Simon Farrar have been busy over the past two years looking into organisations that help clubs obtain grants and funding for our project which is to build a new changing and showering block.

Also we welcome into our club set up the community tag team, who are in the process of developing junior tag teams from the local schools. This and all the other projects which are on going is making the club look very healthy and prosperous.As secretary all I need to see now is for all our ex members to come back and help to run the club in any way they can.

22nd August 2006: Hi everybody welcome to my weekly column, firstly heres a few lines about myself. nicknamed Charlie, i'm the club secretary and founder member of the club, I have been club secretary since the club started 20 years ago and still cant spell or read, which you may all be saying that that is the right qualification for a secretary.

I started playing rugby league when the ball was made of pigs bladders and the shorts came up to the shoulders. I still have not got the hang of the game but people say i've got a side step like fred astair with the age to go with it!. I'm well know at the a+e dept of the halifax general and i've also picked up a few mates at the security desk at manchester international.

I once auditioned for the six million dollar man, but was to late the series had finished, but they did offer me a part in the last of the summer wine, said i would fit in nicely, well that's enough of me its time for my moan?. When explaining to a player how to sign on, you have to explain to them umpteen times and they still fill out the form wrong?, they should be the secretary if that's the case.

When you ask them for there sign on fee, they say i will pay next week, two minute later there at the bar buying a round?, have they got magic pockets with never ending cash, they will make a great treasurer.

When the team are fitness training why do some players go to the gym instead of training with the team? Why do some players like to watch themselves running on a treadmill? Why do some players moan that there not fit enough and say they are going to come training, and then don't? Why do some players sign on to a club and then don't turn out on a saturday? Why do some players never turn up at the right time given? answers on a post card to charlie's moan .com

  See you next week.
