To the people saying he’d still be in the prem if he worked harder… the below article was from his time in the Prem.

People honestly talk like a scorned Ex 😂 It’s giving “she was shit in bed anyway” energy. View attachment 43994
Not sure people say that he needs to work harder but more if he looked after himself better maybe that would allow him to step up a level as a player.

Why does he attract no interest from premier league clubs?

Nobody has questioned his ability. We have seen it with our own eyes.

The question being asked is if he looked after himself better would he be even better. Second half of the season he kept getting taken off early and suffered with muscular problems a few times missing games. And as we saw Sheffield United were a good side but not without Hamer. They, like us, were heading to the Prem until he went off in the playoff final.

IMHO Hamer is blessed with the qualities you need to be considered Prem quality, but the problem is he doesn't seem to be able to give 100% effort to the cause. A modern day footballer needs to train hard for nearly the whole year. They watch the ingredients they eat and not how many kebabs they can devour after getting hammered on a night out.

Great and he’s now cost 2 teams promotion by having to be carried off the pitch early because his legs can’t carry his fat belly around any longer. Perhaps if he didn’t love kebabs so much, we’d have been a premier league team

So he can be first in that list?

And yet as shown he’s consistently one of the best and one of the most active players in the division.

It’s fuck all to do with football it’s very clearly people annoyed he left having a needless dig or people with their own issues about body shape.

What? He's 28...he's in his prime.

Premier League sides like to buy young. It's the same with Gyokeres, teams preferred targets are younger players. It's very much price/value/age. It is all interlinked.

We know he gets hammered during the season. We know he eats whatever he likes. This is undeniably true.

So why don't all professional footballers carry on like it's still the 80's like Hamer does if you honestly think Hamer wouldn't improve if he lived to a strict diet and routine?

Weren't a couple of players laughing about it during an interview?
Think it was Eccles and someone else.

He wouldn't cost anywhere near the amount Gyokeres would do...it would be a pretty tame fee by PL standards.

Hats off to Hamer for his appearance at Bablake today.
Wasn't there myself but he spent hours chatting with supporters, having selfies and signing autographs by all acounts.
Clearly he has something of a feel for his old place of work.
My wife's daughter and grandson had their piccie taken with him and apparently he came across as very approachable.

Why do people care so much? I haven’t said he wouldn’t improve, just that it clearly bothers people for reasons beyond football. His character is such that he’s a maverick and that’s in his play as well as his lifestyle. Turn him into a robot and maybe he does lose something. The guy is clearly loving life and is probably the most entertaining city player I’ve seen in thirty years yet all he gets is “haha kebab”

Are we that bored that we have had to turn on arguably one of our best ex players? He did us well and earned us a lot of money. Leave him be and be grateful that he once played for us

I agree. controversially i have him above Gyokeres in my favourite players list. He was so good, and as someone said - if he'd stayed on we'd have beaten luton. Don't know why we need to be concerned about his outside habits. the club wasn't

Isn't that what substitutes are for?
It is yeah, but in the final for both us and blunts the game was won and lost by his not being on the the pitch. He dictated the game up until the 70 min mark. Granted for us he was injured, but he wasn't in the sheff v sunderland final. He was just knackered. For most of the back end of the season (coincidentally the time where blunts results plummeted) he was only managing 70 mins and looked fucked.

No ones turning on him. People are discussing his lifestyle, which in this day and age, isn't as accepted for a professional player as it once was.
It also has some relevance to us as we still have a stake in his future.
