Fletch £6m to Birmingham?

Just been on SSN that Birmingham are 'poised to swoop for' Darren Fletcher.

Don't know how I feel about that really. Yes he's a bit of a tart, yes he flaps his arms around a lot, yes for every good thing he does he'll do a couple of bad things, yes he get's tons of stick on here....but he's OUR tart isn't he??
I think I'd be quite dissapointed to see him in another Club's shirt.


Seriously though, I thought he did ok for us last season. But he's gonna struggle like £#%&! to play any football now we've got Hargreaves & Anderson - as well as Scholesy & Carrick.

Bite their £#%&!ing hands off.

you have to wonder any time stories comeout saying we're going to sell a playerwho plays a substantial number of games for us, itslike selling O'Shea after he plays 50 games for us, just wont happen. If we needed him that many times, we're gonna need him at some point in the next season.

However we do have Hargreaves and Anderson to cover for him now and plenty of cover down the right with Eagles stepping up. I would sell him, but I also think he can be a very good player, no reason why he cant be as good as Carrick is now by the time he is 25.

The fact that Fletcher has absolutely nowhere near the passing ability of Carrick might be a reason he won't...

PRAISE THE LORD!!!

Richardson and Fletcher for combined £11m?



This is surely the biggest jape since that time my mate bought a laptop off some pikeys, only to find that it was 2 bottles of evian water in the box.

anyone who still wants rid of fletch after his performances in the last couple of months of the season needs their head seeing to, he's finally starting to show what he can do......wouldn't take £10m

Perhaps, but he's now 4th choice central midfielder. It's not so much what 'we' the fans would like but what the player himself wants and since he's tipped to do big things with Scotland and needs to be playing week in week out he may have one eye on a move.

I'd like to see him stick around for another 12months. If he only gets about 15 starts or so (I think he'll be lucky to get anymore) then I wouldn't begrudge him a move.

Well thank christ you aren't manager of our club, eh?

Selling fletcher for £10m would be the equivalent of selling a Ford Focus for £60,000.

Suits him don't you think?!

I wouldn't be that bothered if he left, but I certainly wouldn't be desperate to get rid.

Same.Cant pass cant tackle is too lightweight and 6 million is a cracking price.

I am warming to Fletch tbh, he can come on and hold the midfield for the last 20 mins but he can do very well attacking


Not my fave by any means, but he does a useful job for us!


No way should we sell him!

i'd be a little disappointed to see him leave, he put in some really good performances last season non more so than against roma at OT. That said with hargreaves and carrick ahead of him he won't get many games next season and regular football would be more appealing to him, if he goes best of luck to the lad.

i'm... quite sad. and i'm not sure why. like most on here i thought he was a useless pillock but last season he did a cracking job for us...


my fragile mind can't cope with the paradox's and contradictions. it's all too much.

He's plop.

Gutted

As someone above said, he maybe a tart but he's our tart. I think the same as O'Pie, wouldn't sell them for 12 million.

Fletcher and O'Shea had bags of potential when they first came on the scene and their futures at the club depended on them fulfilling that potential.

Neither have and to put them in to perspective how would you react if we were linked to them as 'squad players'?

Exactly, we'd be seeing our arses.
