ponym110 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 I cant believe this is even a discussion, must be nothing else to do. As been a passenger and a drain on the club resources. Seems like a nice enough guy off the field but too much drama and not enough output on it to warrant a new deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keepitsteel89 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Oh what next..are we going to sell our grandad? We're a f8ing family at this club god damnit! No one goes.. And no one leaves.. (dramatic effect) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiss Toni Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 (edited) Shefki Kuqi always reminded me of someone I wouldn’t want to mess with.

Holmowl Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 (edited) 15 hours ago, 31Dec1966 said: Fletcher has been in good form but he's been poor value for money overall. FF.s time is over. We need younger, fitter, hungrier players. The only ones I'd definitely keep are Fox, Iorfa, Borner, Bannan and Nuhiu (whatever people think he's been excellent value for money and is a good squad player Why? Compare Fletcher and Forestieri over the last 3 full years, 138 league games. Fletcher 30 goals (incl long lay off for injury) Forestieri 14 goals (incl long lay off for injury) They are on similar money. Fletcher is having his best season, both in terms of his performance level and goals. Forestieri is a shadow of the 15/16 version. Get rid of Forestieri and use that handsome salary to secure a Hooper-type strike partner for the excellent Fletcher.

When you do that and then frantically have to think of a half decent relevant post to replace it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crookesowl Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 16 hours ago, @owlstalk said: YES. That said I can totally understand why people say no. I’ve always thought he is a grafter, a player to change a game. At times yes he has looked disinterested but this season when played he has worked hard and I would give him a 1 year deal in the basis he is a wildcard. We can’t build a team around him, but he’s an excellent option to have in the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edinburghowl Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 If the internet rumours are correct he has cost the club just shy of £10m in fees and wages combined in his time at the club. In his first two seasons he was good admittedly, but now he is 30 and has limited re-sale value, and he is not performing at the same levels. In his last 3 seasons he has contributed 13 Championship goals and 2 assists and then there’s his off field baggage. Value for money? Some of our fans still aren’t quite getting the seriousness of our situation. We can’t afford him, and even if we could and wanted to keep him, personally I think we would be batshit mental to even consider it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night King Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Absolutely not. He’s shown very little form since the Hull play off defeat and he’s been such a disruptive influence with a bad injury record. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichSheffWeds Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 (edited) When you take the combo of injuries, form, attitude and discipline, he’s an expensive luxury we cannot afford. The stats on appearances though are ultimately the most damning problem. You can’t pay an injury prone player, over 30, big wages. It is just throwing money away. Money we don’t have. Some fans still cling to his first season and can’t see the woods for the trees. Edited March 15, 2020 by RichSheffWeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 What were the stats, 30 odd games over the last few years? absolutely unbelievable mindset from those saying give him a new contract, if he plays 5-10 games a season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0114 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Players don’t get better or fitter after 30. Seeing as he hasn’t been good or fit for over 2 years, it’s a no from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverstone Owl Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 100% no - a luxury we simply cannot afford. One of the most exciting players to watch when he arrived at the club, but sadly unlikely to rediscover that form again. Time to to say thanks and move on!

Guest The Horse Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Yes but on a 1 year rolling contract. Reduced wages but high performance bonuses. That should get the best out of him. But if he doesn't perform, we have no long contract to see out and off he goes with some great memories and fantastic goals to remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
