Thomas Wilberforce Fletcher (1878 – after 1902) was an English professional footballer who played in the Football League for Small Heath.[1]
Born in Wednesfield, Staffordshire, Fletcher joined Second Division club Small Heath from Willenhall in 1900.[2] He made his debut – as the third of five players used at inside left in the 1900–01 season – on 29 December 1900 in a 2–1 home win against Burslem Port Vale. Fletcher kept his place for the next game,[3] but failed to impress, and returned to non-league football in the Black Country. He died in Wolverhampton.[2]
