Bigblueowl Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 It seems he's getting back to his best and is impressing us and the scottish fans and players. A free transfer who we could now possibly be worth a couple of million if he keeps it up! A big earner with us, apparently 40k (according to Wilder) a week. Do we sell if an offer comes in to release the wages? or keep hold of him and look to possibly re-negotiate a lower wage in 2020 (£15k a week 2 year contract?) again if he keeps it up and stays injury free! He claims he now plays pain free which he hasn't done for a long time. Personally I can't see Hooper playing for us again so would it be good to try and keep hold of Fletcher as an older experienced head that can coach the likes of Borokuv, Hammoud etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticky belly Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Only £40k? I’ve heard it’s closer to £80k and nearly as much as Jones is on p.s Wilder is a massive bell end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it him with non Sheffield accent? What a currant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan93 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I always ask myself the same question with Fletcher. “Has he done enough in the 3 seasons he has been with us?” No. I’d personally sell. He isn’t getting any younger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dewsburyowl58 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 He’s going nowhere if he’s on so much who else would pay him £40k . We don’t do help the youngsters either ask Kieran Westwood !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazowl55 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Can see Fletcher going for that massive pay cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 We would never get £2m for him. Best we could hope for is someone taking him on a free and paying all his wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreshOwl Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 (edited) When’s his contract up, next summer? Finally gets fit towards the end of it, in typical Wednesday fashion Edited November 19, 2018 by FreshOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james o connor Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 He’s 31 and injury prone (surely not at Wednesday) he’s doing okay , but just okay . For 30-40k a week there is much , much better out there . All the above taken into account , he’s with us until his deal runs out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woozie Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I doubt any offers will come in. He'll probably see his contract out then either call it a day or go to a Scottish club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigash_swfc Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Funny thing football, A team like Middlesborough would role the dice and pay 2 to 3m for Glenn Murray at 35 year old. Yet Fletcher at 31 is deemed worthless on the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Doesn't score enough. Much to admire about the other parts of his game but, for me, he's found wanting too much when the goal is at his mercy. He's missed some absolute sitters in his time here.

SallyCinnamon Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I like Fletcher. Works hard and does have a bit of quality, which is the best we can hope for at the minute really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
