Ashley Fletcher back on loan...

IF , and it's a BIG if , CW thought he would make the difference ?
Did he do enough previously , or has he got enough to make an impact ?
Desire ,workrate, ability, is what we need to improve, he is a risk.
McBurnie, Burke, similar in that they have under achieved, but I can see CW going for who he knows, or better hopefully.
 
Yes it's what a squaddie poster on old board continually threatened another guy with. Wish I could remember his name...EDIT: ExiledinHerford - anyone recall the poster he kept offering a Happy Meal?
Not a clue but as someone from the squaddie fraternity if I were to offer someone a happy meal then they should run for the hills 🤷‍♂️
 
His best season was 11 goals averaging a goal every 294 minutes. Which is a goal every 3.2 games. He has done okay for boro when fit.
I often agree with you Tom, but he scored 11 in 2019-20, from 43 league appearances. He got 1 in 4.

He's not passed 5 league goals in any other season for any club.

He's got 19 league goals in 92 appearances. He's a 1 in 5 lightweight.

He's a powderpuff player with zero presence who jumps lower than he stands.

He doesn't work hard, he hides in matches and goes missing with injury after a gust of wind.

Horrible fraud of a player.

But like everyone else, I wish him a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Here here. Watford will be paying him a lot more not to score goals than we could. I wish him a happy Christmas too.

Cant say i was disapointed he didnt hang around, think indeedido covers his time at the Boro pretty well
 
One that will certainly improve our options as we are currently, but I'd prefer us to move on. If he does end up here though, Wilder will make good use of him. I'll get behind the lad.

I'm not even sure you can be called a forward if you've scored 26 goals and you've turned 26. I imagine Aden Flint has scored more 😂
Flint has scored more, albeit over far more games. Fletcher has 26 league goals (21 Championship, 5 L1) to Flint's 48 (27 Championship, 19 L1, 2 L2).

I'm not that surprised by the goals, but Flint even has more league assists than Fletcher.

The only thing not suprising is that we turned a goal scoring CB in a a none scoring one. It's about standard for defenders / CMs and forwards😂

Hopefully the new gaffer can change this. I am pretty sure when we were linked with forwards for Jan no Boro fan thought 'yes.... Let's get Fletcher back?'
 
It’s sad to to see this type of stuff — I hope it’s not true and let’s face it if he’s not good for Watford then he’ll be no good for us either. One wonder goal doesn’t make a player.
