Fletcher On A Possible Return

Steve Fletcher had been offered, but has rejected a contract extenion by Chesterfield, the Club he moved to when Kevin Bond released the Cherries favourite in the Summer of 2007.

Speaking in the Bournemouth Evening Echo, Big Fletch is quoted as saying: "I will love the club until the day I die and although the thought of coming back would be fantastic, the chances of it happening are probably slim to none. You hear of players going back to their previous clubs but, 99 times out of a 100, it's usually under a different manager. I can't see that Kevin would release me one year and then bring me back the next. He will have a budget to work with for next season and it's probably going to be a lot less than it was this season so he is going to have to find players to fit into his structure. But as much as Bournemouth is my club and always will be, the possibility of me coming back is extremely unlikely in the current circumstances".
