Devil Finds Work For Idle Hands

Woodside captain Rex Kunz has let the winter lay-off get the better of him. Without the Warriors filling his life with glee, the ginger one has decided to wreck the entire village of Cullingworth. The village is now a haven for the criminal element now that Mr Kunz has opened up a footpath through its centre.

"When will people learn you can't fill the empty void in your life left by cricket with charity or your kids, the gap can only be filled with alcohol", added JK yesterday.

Rangers on the trail of trouble
From the archive, first published Friday 7th Oct 2005.

Rangers are patrolling a new trail along a former railway which opened in the summer to a chorus of complaints from nearby neighbours.

The 12 volunteers, who have bought their own jackets, hope to be the eyes and ears to any vandalism or trouble making along the Great Northern Trail.

The track was opened to walkers, horse riders and cyclists in May after a £250,000 restoration. It included refurbishing two magnificent viaducts - Cullingworth and Hewenden.

Jeff McQuillan, of Sustrans, the alternative transport group which is spearheading the project to open up the whole route from Cullingworth to Queensbury, said: "They will be our ears and eyes and patrol on a regular basis. They will report back any damage or anything else that needs our attention."

It was hoped that their regular presence would also act as a deterrent but he stressed that there had been very few problems since the opening in May.

"We can understand people's feeling about change - of not knowing what is round the corner. That is normal," he added.

Liaison ranger Richard Kunz, 36, who works as a physiotherapist, said: "It's a visible presence and we want to show we are pro-active rather than reactive.

"We've had an excellent response and have about 12 volunteers on board, who do litter picking and keep the trail up to standard."

Mr Kunz, of Bingley, also praised the trail, which has received criticism from parish councillors and residents since it opened. Nearby residents complained of losing their privacy and of people straying into their gardens.

Mr Kunz said: "I think it's the best thing to happen in Cullingworth for years. There are walkers and rangers on it every day and I go up once a week. If there is a problem, they get in touch with me."

Mr Kunz added that the rangers were now seeking to develop links with local schools and hoped to stage a competition, with a mountain bike on offer as a prize.

Plans for phase two of the trail - between Thornton and Queensbury - are expected to be submitted to Bradford Council within the next three weeks.

Sustrans hope to start the project - expected to cost about £500,000 - in about two year's time. It will involve restoring Thornton viaduct.

The final phase, the middle section, is more problematic because part of the old railway line is tunnelled.

scandalous flith and lies

It is a known fact that only gingermen can lead . How I've managed to cobble together such a bunch of vagabonds (tom), raggamuffins , so called international business consultants (my arse) and clogg wearing morris dancers is nothing sort of a miracle (in fact Sir Bob has contacted me about leading the next live-eat event).Remember England CC that winning only two games is poultry compared to 11 wins and only 3 minor/slight/only just losses that don't even get a mention on the unbiast WW web page. So boys remember where your butties are buttered and pork pies are sliced esp you Stead brothers when you slagg off my kind. CAPTAIN GINGER

ASHES ARE A CON!

Warriors captain, Richard 'Rex' Kunz (left), yesterday dismissed England's ashes win.

'The Warriors have won 10 matches this season, England only won 2 against the Aussies' seethed Mr Kunz, making no attempt to hide his vitriol.

'If the country made such a song and dance about every Warriors win, the economy would collapse and the U.K would be a third world country like Belgium", he seethed, spitting coco-pops across his breakfast table, until he was told off.
