Consequently, what happened?
At the Racecourse Ground on Saturday afternoon, the crowd was raucous as Fletcher scored the game’s lone goal to give his team a vital victory over Notts County, their promotional rivals from the previous season. The goal in the 20th minute provided the home crowd with ample opportunity to perform a brand-new song that has their seasoned striker talking about the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.
WHAT THE WREXHAM FANS SING
To the tune of ‘The Entertainer’, the Wrexham faithful belted out:
“Follow Follow Follow,
Wrexham’s the team to follow,
There’s nobody better,
Than Steven Fletcher
Not even Cristiano.”
THE LARGER IMAGE
Since joining the Red Dragons in the summer to strengthen their front line, Fletcher has gained a lot of popularity among the fans. The 36-year-old, who played a hat-trick against Barrow on New Year’s Day, has been in excellent form lately and brings Premier League experience to north Wales. His popularity has only grown.
FUTURE PLANS FOR WREXHAM?
With their victory on Saturday, Wrexham is now in third position. They will want to get closer to Stockport County and Mansfield Town when they visit MK Dons, who are in fifth place, on Tuesday night.
