We've been told by @RichCawleySLP that @BenHamer21 is a "big character, confident, and everything you want with a goalkeeper." #LCFC

Good stuff. We need proper competition for the jersey and a backup to Kasper (sorry Conrad).

Highly rated youngish 'keeper on a freebie. Good work.

 

[Lako42]

Happy with this, finally a backup keeper you don't shit yourself about when being called into action.

Ben Hamer: Leicester City sign Charlton Athletic goalkeeper

Leicester City have signed out-of-contract Charlton Athletic goalkeeper Ben Hamer on a four-year contract.
The 26-year-old, who played 37 games last season, said on Twitter: "Delighted to have joined. Looking forward to the new challenge. Thanks to Charlton for three fantastic years."
City have been in talks with number one Kasper Schmeichel, and had agreed a deal with the out-of-contract Dane.
But Hamer's arrival has cast doubts over Schmeichel's future.

I don't care about his goalkeeping, that beard is wonderful.

It's a bit Lancaster, Pennsylvania if you ask me.

Chickens!

If you go on his Twitter he has a photo of 'Beard Oils' sent to keep it in prime condition. Splendid.

I'd love a chin glove like that but always concede defeat when it gets itchy. Only the strongest earn such delights.

Good effort son

 

[PFKAKTF FOX]

And he's from Taunton, Zummerzet a fellow wurzel......good lad

 

[H T B]

Bloody good signing.
Put's real pressure on Kasper to perform (if he's staying)

Always used to have the same problem. Found that using plenty of conditioner is a massive help, and oils like those pictured are even better!

 

[jb5000]

And that is a thing of beauty.

 

[Dour]

At least a six-head, too.

 

[Graz]

Never heard of him, must be shit... Can't wait to see him saving shots with his beard though.

Glad to see a new back up keeper come in though... if we'd lost Kasper to injury at any point I didn't particularly fancy Logan coming in!
