Player profile

One of the most popular members of the great 1950s Oldham team, Charlie Winslade, was a powerful forward who formed a dynamic second row partnership with team mate Sid Little.

Charlie signed for Oldham from the Welsh RU club Maesteg in January 1950. Before “Going North” he had represented Wales at schoolboy level, been capped four times by Glamorgan County and was thought to be on the verge of full international honours. After breaking into the Oldham first team in the 1950-51 season he was virtually an ever present for the next decade. A robust performer on both attack and defence, his hallmarks were the long one handed pass and the shoulder charge tackle.

His first representative game in Rugby League was for a Commonwealth XIII. This was followed by inclusion in the Welsh side and one appearance for the full Great Britain team. At club level Charlie figured prominently in the success of the 1950s and, like many of his team mates, only a Challenge Cup winner’s medal eluded him.

After eleven years’ sterling service to the “Roughyeds”, Charlie moved on to Warrington, but he always had the best interests of his former club at heart. After his death in 1993, his ashes were scattered at Watersheddings, showing the depth of affection felt for Oldham RLFC by this great servant of the club.
