Hamer (9 Viewers)

There were pretty solid rumours he had an offer from Leicester on the table.

Is that why Leicester paid £10m for Harry Winks

I was told some time ago that Leicester had spoken to Hamers agent and offered him £45k a week, but relegation changed the offer they could make, and the Winks deal was very well advanced.

I’m not saying this is true but I could easily believe Hamer has had clubs telling him to see out his contract and they would come in for him in Jan or next summer.

So now Hamer's a hero for not running down his contract and nobly going to Sheffield Utd?

Priceless isn’t it

Nope. The club forced his hand.

Nope. The club forced his hand.

And as he was nailed to the cross, sun beating down on his fevered brow, he took the pen and signed.

'It's for the best,' he whispered. 'Coventry City must come first no matter how hard it will be for me.'

Even put his family second

Is this the same family story you've been calling as bullshit the whole time?

 

[Deity]

Hamer is neither a hero or villain to me.

I enjoyed his time with us, all parties have benefited and new fans favourites will emerge …. It was ever thus.

I think the point is, the desire to excuse Hamer as somehow determined to stay but defeated by fate and dark forces is a bit ludicrous.

He got the chance to play at a higher level for more cash and took it, that's it. He won't be the last to do that either, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with him doing that but the rest, the insights into circumstance and personality, are flowery nonsense.

I mean, they actually do him a disservice really. This Leicester shit is just more meaningless fluff.

If you want meaningful substance you are fishing in the wrong pond.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

We have, haven't you heard his sign for Sheffield United.

Moved on so well we have pages and pages days after the move.

My favourite on here was how his evil agent was using mysterious dark forces to prevent him from signing a new contract with us.

 

[Astute]

So now some of those who stated how we had to sell are now unhappy he left as soon as the first acceptable offer came in.

Thanks for everything Gus. Been a great journey from relegation candidates to losing the playoffs on penalties. Without him getting injured we would most probably have won. He was the difference between the sides.

I hope he gets a chance to show what he can do and we get promoted with help from his transfer fee.

 

[covcity4life]

Let this thread die.

Quality player who we should all remember well. Good transfer fee too to help the club.

Good luck to him and us

Now let's move on.

irrelevant to the discussion

 

[Mcbean]

Close thread - he’s in the P league - we won’t have to play him yet

 

[clint van damme]

Wait until they're playing and we're not, we're going to have running commentary of his every move.

 

[Seymour_East]

I have loved watching Gus mature at CCFC with MR nurturing him and turning him into a quality player. I for one will miss him at the club, some of his absolute sublime passes etc. but wish him the very best for the future.
Veel geluk Gus, maak er wat van!

So get ready for a busy SBT tomorrow night as Sheff Weds are at Forest. Oh what a thrilling game that will be!

Agreed, that game will bring out all the bellends, just wait and see.

It’s not on TV, it was moved because of the cricket at Trent Bridge on Saturday

Why are Sheff Weds playing Forest ? They're in different leagues. And why would we care ?

I'm not in the know and have never claimed to be. I do have "gossip" from a mate. He was in a barbers in Leamington on Saturday morning. Simon Moore comes in as he knows the barber. Moore had a bandage on an injured finger apparently. More apparently said that Hamer wanted to go as soon as we failed to get promoted and was never going to sign a new contract. However, much to his disappointed there was no queue for his services, only Sheffield United. He had a choice of them or us. Chose them. Take it with a pinch of salt if you must, just passing on what I was told.

Probably true. Sheffield U panicked into paying what we demanded for Hamer having had a difficult transfer window themselves.

 

[JimmyHillsbeard]

Remember when our fans applauded him scoring against us

Andy Morrell too. Andy Morrell !

Seems far more believable than we wouldn't give him an extra 50p a week to keep him
