77 posts suggest that there is good interest in the PPA and the club's response to the problem. I feel that bridges have been burnt. I would like to remind others that the PPA doesn't only include the players from "71 and "82 but lots of Leigh lads who thought it was a privilege to play for their hometown club, many who are still carrying injuries in their early 30s. You can't start a new PPA without the original players.
I don't get it, whats better than seeing Mick Martyn at the bar after/ before a game. Use the PPA to remind people of the clubs great history.

I NEVER said or implied this ,not being privy to RFL or Club rules i cant make a comment on this , what i said was to me "All ex-players should automatically become Members of the PPA ",I have asked in the past if all ex-players are given tickets or have to pay for them ?As i dont know .

For me ex-players are like Old Soldiers , they never die just Fade away , to me Mick Martyn and Gordon Lewis were my childhood heroes ,not one season wonders , but Leythers through aand through ,lets not show them Disrespect .

But how many actually 'support' the club after finishing playing? How many come to watch regularly?

For me, they chose to play for us, they were paid for doing so - thanks for the entertainment that I paid to watch -end of.

If they choose to set up an association then let them but they must meet the costs.
