That injury could have happened today or next week - it's easy to say in hindsight that he shouldn't have played, but there's no legislating for something like that.

Season over for us if he’s out long term Because they all work along the lines of hindsight. Different story if he scores a hat trick for us to win...

You need to rest your prized assets in fixtures in games like this. He shouldn't be a Faberge egg. He was working his way back to fitness. I think the main takeaway is that we cannot count on Fletcher for any extended periods of time now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could have happened in any game but not sure he needed to play for match fitness today. He has only had a couple of weeks out and played 45 minutes in our last league game anyway. We are so heavily reliant on him it seems a surprising risk to take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMOwl72 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I think if our chances of promotion rest on Fletcher playing we are fecked anyway. He’s the best of a bad bunch and at his age he is always going to get injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
