So with all the moving of houses that everyone seems to be doing at CH these days, what's happened to the "house loyalty" etc. when it comes to sport? Having been part of the Leigh Hunt team to win the Rugby A Cup Ties (with a drop goal in the last minut of extra time!) in the very last ye...

If you want to see how sucessfull a forum CAN be, have a look at it the link below (it's registered only forum, so you'll need to register to have a ...

At this point I'm not too sure regarding the CH association. I have seen no clarity as yet on HOW it will better serve the CH and ex-CH communities, just that we're assured it WILL - I sincerely hope that it does, and we start to see some enhanced dynamism and engagement with Old Blues. I've raised ...

I've been involved in sub-contracting software testing to India over the past couple of years. Having had mixed experiences (and to be honest mixed success!) with the whole Indian subcontract operation, I'm looking to find any Old Blues who have experience of this - this could be either in the past,...
