I am very sad to see Stevie go. I thought he was a superb player, and certainly one of my favourite in my time as a Southend fan. He has been terrific for us in the last 18 months, scoring a couple in the process.
It worries me who is going to take set pieces now, because Gower just cant (history indicates). Hammell is in my opinion the best set piece taker we have ever had at the Hall.
Nice touch what he has added on the OS with his comments. Good to see a player appreciate the fans welcoming him with open arms and loving him during his time.
A little surprised he says his family could not settle, as it was his wife who fell in love with Southend when he looked around reportedly.
One extra thought, Motherwell have sold the left back they tried to replace Hammell with for £250,000, and re-signed the player they always wanted for less than half of this, so I am very disappointed we did not hold out for more to be honest, got to have been worth at least £200,000 of Motherwell's cash.
I am a very unhappy Shrimper right now, thanks for everything Stevie, and all the best back at Motherwell, I look forward to hopefully seeing you in Europe next season, and back in the International set up!!
