SAD NEWS for the OWLS as top player runs mad amid dangerous controversies and …..
Ashley Fletcher, on loan from the club from fellow Championship outfit Watford, has not featured for the club since he was sent off late on in their 2-0 win at Millwall on February 17. He has not made a matchday squad since, meaning he has sat out of four consecutive matches altogether since his one-match suspension for his dismissal at The Den was served.
The 28-year-old was a regular in the Owls side in the first half of the campaign, making 28 appearances across all competitions. The signing of Ike Ugbo as well as the emergence of teenager Bailey Cadamarteri have pushed him further down the pecking order, with Michael Smith offering effective substitute appearances from the bench. A system change has been enabled by the signing of Ian Poveda, with two strikers seldom used in tandem.
Asked about Fletcher’s absence as a point of clarification, Wednesday manager Röhl confirmed that he had not suffered an injury, rather that he had been left out due to the weight of options available to him.
