Fletcher top man again

No goals this week for Fletcher but another excellent performance saw him walk away with the man of the match, polling no less than 41.3% of the vote. That was way ahead of Graham Alexander who came second with 12.8% and Andre Bikey who was third 11.2% of the vote.

Bikey was pushed out of the top three in the player ratings but it was the same top two with Fletcher again a clear winner. His rating of 8.44 out of 10 was some way ahead of Alexander who had a rating of 7.98. Captain Steven Caldwell took third place this time with a rating of 7.93 out of 10.

Fletcher, for the fifth time this season, has picked up the maximum six points towards the Clarets Mad Player of the Year. There are four points for Alexander and one each for Bikey and Caldwell.

Those points have now seen Fletcher increase his lead at the top to eight points ahead of Tyrone Mears who remains second. Alexander has moved up to eighth whilst for the skipper it is a first point of the season.

The man of the match vote for the West Ham game will start during tomorrow evening and will run until the end of Tuesday of next week.
