Hammond was at Southampton with Burke and Burke must have been instrumental in bringing him here for the loan period, so I would say he has every chance in bringing him back again.
He made 32 appearances for the runaway Championship winners last season. 41 appearances for us the season before when we finished 4th (and really should have gone up). Then of course there were 48 appearances for Southampton as club captain when they got promoted in 2011/2012.
Sorry, what was your argument again? Y

Apologies, and I bow to your superior font of knowledge for relevant statistics about which my ignorance should be allowed for. I was simply going on starts, and not substitution appearances which would have altered the balance of your argument slightly I am sure you will agree.
No matter, I accept my mistake.

Crofts, Stephens, Ince, JFC and our new unknown quantity from the Congo should really be enough.
For one thing I'd like to see how Crofts plays alongside Stephens because fit and on form we know these are two very decent players. JFC might not be a spectacular player but he has youth on his side and could yet assert himself on the team. We all know Ince can be a real rock on his day and is another with plenty of time on his side to only improve. What's more I don't believe Toko has been signed just as backup so the competition we have in the middle is actually looking pretty decent right now.
As solid a player as Hammond is I really don't think we've room for him in the squad.
For all the doom and gloom of late I think our middle of the park options are actually looking pretty good right now

Adding someone in midfield with a bit of pace and guile would be nice, if the new man doesn't think March is quite ready to play in the middle.
NOT Hammond.

Quite right.

March in the middle did not work, so lightweight it was embarrassing. I hope we never see him there again unless he bulks up

With regard Hammond, I give the award for the most unusual club trf decision to him when he went to Colchester......very odd. ( it did lead to a move to Saints of course).

I think Hammond is a decent player and he would be a welcome addition.
I'd be happy to see him back. Good solid player with a habit for scoring the occasional vital goal.

Think that he could do the same type of job Keith Andrews did for us last season so its a yes from me as a squad player.

quite happy if he comes back. solid, dependable player, happy to sit on the bench come on a do a job, and do it well. he isnt flair, he isnt pacey, but how many games could we have done with some grit in the middle of the park?
Very good point, completely forgot about Toko!

March isn't ready to play in the middle, and neither is Hammond the answer. It isn't just a player who can 'do a job' that we need, it's players who excel at their positions that we should be looking to sign, if we are serious about promotion.

Said to be interesting Reading would he be worth an enquiry to Leicester, he would add experience to our midfield if we dont sign Clayton and fit into PB anf his FFP aims.
Singed a new one year deal with Leicester.
