Hammers speak on Fletcher loan

|

fletcher-726-july-12Ashley Fletcher will not be allowed to leave West Ham on loan until January 31 – IF AT ALL!

New reports ware circulating today that the young striker is wanted by Leeds but ClaretandHugh has learned there’s only a slight chance the Irons would let him out to the Championship club.

Leeds have had their eyes on Fletcher for some months but may well have to do without him given West Ham#s circumstances.

No loans are available anyway until January 1 and the club don’t even consider any options until then.

We were told: “We can’t even think about it until that time as we obviously don’t know what our injury situation is likly to be.

“And of course with the African Nations Cup the earlieat we would do anything  would be Jan 31st.”

    Please Slav just play the kid, if he is not better than what we have seen already from the misfiring others then whats the harm… He scored last night for the u23’s and drilled the cross in for the other goal which was turned in for an own goal. Him and Callieri looked like they linked up, seeing as Callieri flighted the cross in that he scored from.

      I’m with you No 32.It’s almost like the same reluctance to play the young lads like it was under Sam.When Oxford and others leave please don’t anyone say that you never saw it coming.As for Noble it’s almost a repeat of the Kevin “no legs” Nolan fiasco.Yes things have changed under Bilic to some extent but at the end of the day he is playing the to the same tune as Sam “self preservation”.In my humble opinion.
