I've just been reading a copy of League Express from 19th July, which contains a letter from a Roy Claxton, London. In his letter he says that Bob Brown made an announcement on BBC London that Hemel Stags had joined the rugby union as a number of youngsters needed winter competition.
Is this true?

It is true that Hemel Stags RFU have been formed. This is aswell as not instead of League. Has what was said in the programme it was to give our young players games throughout the winter. If they go off to play union why not play union at the club they play League for. Its no different from union clubs playing league during their off season.

League has always been the dominant code at Hemel, still is, and always will be. The use of Union is as a tool to try to ensure player retention as they progress through our development system. We also are looking at making Pennine Way a centre of excellence in sport in general. We now have an arm of the club called "Hemel Stags Aces Football Club", but you can rest assured that the continued development of Rugby League is the reason Hemel Stags exists and that will not change.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Will you be joining the ranks of the semi pro league any time soon ? |

| Just caught sight of this post. It is no secret that we want to join the semi-pro leagues and we have applied to be admitted to Ch1 next season. We are yet to receive a decision from the RFL.  |

Now now , don't you start going all ' flatcapy ' 
Just out of curiosity , did your ' expression of interest ' have a business plan with a benefactor involved ? |

Without going into too much detail on a public forum, our business plan does not involve a benefactor, it consists of a sound tried and tested model.
