Lechers, years later, didn't play (6)
I believe the answer is:
satyrs
'lechers' is the definition.
('satyr' can be a synonym of 'lecher')
'years later didn't play' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'years' could be 'yrs' ('yr' can be a synonym of 'year') and 'yrs' is found in the answer.
'didn't play' could be 'sat' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'sat' is found in the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for satyrs that I've seen before include "Greek gods of woodlands" , "Woodland deities who attended Bacchus" , "Mythical woodland gods half-man and half-goat" , "Roman woodland gods or lustful men" , "Woodland gods, part men and part goats" .)
