"The care and treatment he is receiving from the doctors and nurses is beyond words, and the love, support and messages of goodwill that the whole football world has sent to Alex has been completely overwhelming. "We sincerely thank each and everyone for sending them and we pray that Alex will continue to make progress in the days ahead." The club confirmed boss Jerry Gill remains in daily contact with Fletcher's parents. A Bath City fan has started a fundraiser to support Fletcher's family. The GoFundMe page had raised close to £8,000 within a day of being set up.
