niceandfriendly Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Great signing for Leicester and a good move for Deano. Two promotions and a trophy, excellent. Thank you Mr Hammond.
The9 Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 He's not a player to set the world alight but he is a good poacher at lower level. Scored goals for us and Southend and while he didn't bang tons in for his last two teams he still got a few. I reckon Southend will probably be his destination too, but he did a lot to get us out of League One. Certainly more than Forte, who'll be remembered for one thing... Two things, he was very fast as well as the MK Dons goal. Some might say "Johnno Quick". Maybe three, racial stereotypes and all that. Anyway, cheers for the effort, Dean Hammond. Surprised he's gone to Leicester, do they need a defensive midfielder then ?
Under Weststand Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 He did the job we asked of him, he helped lead us back to the premier league. The goal that sent us on our way 1st game back in the championship against Leeds, was particularly memorable. All the best Dean hope you have a great season, glad you got yourself a decent club like Leicester.
Toomer Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Did a cracking job for us on our climb back up good luck and many thanks Dean.
Cabrone Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Solid pro, was instrumental in bringing the winning mentality back into the club and played a big part in pushing us all the way back to the prem. Best of luck at Leicester, they've signed a very good pro there.
Toadhall Saint Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Solid pro, was instrumental in bringing the winning mentality back into the club and played a big part in pushing us all the way back to the prem. Best of luck at Leicester, they've signed a very good pro there. My sentiments - good luck Dean & thanks.
Bucks Saint Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Solid pro, was instrumental in bringing the winning mentality back into the club and played a big part in pushing us all the way back to the prem. Best of luck at Leicester, they've signed a very good pro there. Ditto, hope it goes very well there. Decent manager too, should be a good combo
dubai_phil Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Good luck to Dean, did a damned good job for us. Even if some of the usual suspects bracketed him in the Guly/Gaston/Fox role as pantomime villain
Badger Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 I certainly wish him well, he was an integral part in turning our fortunes round and propelling us back up the leagues. As others have said, a good honest hardworking bloke, no frills or pretensions - unlike the greed and grasp of the Premiership; but that - sadly in some ways - is where we all strive to be. It always seemed bittersweet that players who it meant so much to never got the chance to play at Premier League level after promotion. Hamster and Sharp being the main examples. It's a ruthless business. Agree, there are others who contributed to this as well who have been jettisoned - Barnard for example. In fairness though, I think Hammond probably had found his level in the Championship. If anything found out on occasion. That said, he often offered more than his own ability in organising others around him.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Finished 2nd in the championship with us & 4th in the championship with Brighton. Will finish top 6 again this season i suspect. Hope he gets a season in the prem at some stage........ Chdajfu in a few games last season thats for sure
Mr Saints Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Cheers Deano, only fond memories of you in a Saints shirt.
Saint_clark Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Finished 2nd in the championship with us & 4th in the championship with Brighton. Will finish top 6 again this season i suspect. Hope he gets a season in the prem at some stage........ Chdajfu in a few games last season thats for sure Which ones exactly?
Seaford Saint Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 All the best to Deano, quietly and efficiently got on with the job.
davefizzy14 Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Many thanks Deano, played a pivotal part in our back to back promotions and lifting the JPT was a proud moment. A very good pro who will do very well at Leicester.
corky morris Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Cheers Deano - great signing for us. Always gave his all, great goal against Leeds!! Good luck!
Dr Who? Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 HCheers Deano. Forever etched in Southampton's history... Nice shirt as well.
SaintBobby Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Thanks for the memories, big man, and good luck.
Horton Heath Saint Posted 31 August, 2013 Posted 31 August, 2013 Right player, right time. Very neat midfielder.
