Yes, it reads as if you're saying he's not good enough for L1. I'd like to see him given more game time.Ottawa Green":2w3lve8f said:Badly worded title i meant he is too good for SWPL but Adams does'nt think he is good enough to start in Div 1, just gives him 10 min cameo when the match is lost, obviously he is a goal scorer and should be given more playing time.
I've seen him with the first team cameos and playing for the SWPL team. I think he deserves a start. He was given 9 minutes last night to try and win the game and of course the pressure of trying to impress in such a short space of time. No wonder his first touch was sometimes dodgy. We're scoring loads at the moment aren't we. What have we got to lose?Gam":3kyvcamh said:If you were at the game last night you would know that whilst he has great potential his first touch needs to be developed for when he is playing against league 1 opposition.
He will no doubt be good and given his chance when he's ready
With his energy he makes a good impact sub but imho hes not the answer to our striker issue

Fletcher is still a young raw lad who has potential and MAY develop but at this stage he is not the next Wayne Rooney or Michael Owen. He may make the step up to a regular place in league football given time but he is not the answer to our current problem, as in a starter upfront on his own. Impact sub maybe.
If Taylor was fit and we had better back up a loan move would have suited him and us but sadly we are exposed upfront and need to keep him on the bench as an option.
Desperate times sometimes leads to desperate measures.
Hope the kid goes on to be a local hero and real star but please lets not pile pressure on him as our great hope
