New Season New Start

Quote: Alan "Martin, hi there!

I believe it's the intention to introduce the Professional Support Group, and give an outline of what they are doing, at the next Fans' Forum - date to be announced soon. There is a heck of a lot of work being done, that will be of great benefit to Leigh Centurions in the future. (obviously, we desperately need to sort out the short-term first!) Not all the ideas are new, but at last there are people on board, who should now be able to implement them.

Hi Alan

I'm an old fart at 37?!

Good to hear about the PSG and its upcoming publicity. I don't mean to come across as a curmudgeon but if you are going to effective in a Professional Support group, you need to be (I assume or maybe I would hope) professional - yes that includes speaking and writing English properly but also knowing what, and how, to communicate with your target audience. At the very least, leave it to those who can communicate effectively.

James is presenting himself as the voice of the fans "working alongside" Trevor as though he is the Messiah - or the Messiah's assistant. I don't think that approach is going to get us far, at least not without some credentials.

It is great to have "young" people on board, but all contributors need to get past the obvious statements like "we have to make it enjoyable" or "we all need to pull together" - yes, but how? In my view, the PSG needs to distinguish itself by including members who are clearly qualified to add value to the club through their proven credentials, rather than naive newcomers - there are already other avenues where their talents can be developed.
