I don't recall seeing any past players at either HP or the LSV. Come to think of it I saw Mick Martyn a couple of time at Hilton Park. What is the purpose of the PPA? Is it to allow them to have freebies? If so I don't see the point really, when the club doesn't get anything out of it. It is not something the club can afford.

I know Kevin Ashcroft doesn't come as he doesn't get any freebies

Surely we should have a past players ranking system - Woody, Dessy, Martyn, Murphy, Wilky, Streety and possibly a few others who spent many years here or had such a big impact on the club should be treated as hall of famers and given a lifetime pass into the upstairs bar - I am sure sponsors and fans would welcome the opportunity to have a chat.

The Legends bar should be available as a meeting point for the organisation on any matchday, with facilities upstairs available for more formal gatherings at a reduced rate.

I disagree Maur. If you can afford to pay (not £40 a game) for a season pass say £100 then pay and have accsess as described. If a past player is retired or out of work then free. I'm sure the past players would agree to this seeing as we are skint. The other one as you describe Maur is to sponsor the PPA. Who will though.

Didn't the PPA used to donate money every year to the club? I'm sure I remember them presenting Arthur with one of those big cheques.

yeah, they also used some of the money they raised to fund their christmas party, oh did they not mention that?

YES those players may have given thier all for the club, some may not but they also got PAID for doing so.

Something else they forgot to mention.



They was asked to pay something like a tenner each to cover the lsv costs but considered that too much.



remember, theres always two sides to a story

'They' didn't mention anything, I was merely asking a question.

would like to see this get sorted publicly like it was raised.

Will raise this issue at the next PSG meeting on Tuesday. We mustn't be too busy looking forward, to forget our heritage - and these guys are very much part of that. Some of them were my heroes!



There are very definitely two sides to the story, but the time has now come, to get people together and sort this out. Whatever the rights and wrongs of the situation, we can't afford for egos to get in the way!

The Club is to approach a representative of the Past Players, with a view to starting a dialogue, to attempt to resolve this issue.



After all, we have had a 'new beginning' at the Club - so why not have one in this relationship?

Here Here Alan.

Glad its being looked into.
