He is clearly a remarkable man, as was his son.

Chris is a regular NSC visitor and occasional poster. We are all very proud of him by association. He is quite simply an astonishing chap as many others will testify. There are several others like Lee and Jo too who give so much of their time to our PCFC. Paul Brackley (son of, yes) should also take a bow. But Chris, yep, he’s a proper Guardian Angel and deserves this wonderful accolade. And Lewis, not a day goes by without friends and family thinking of him. He’s immortalised on a stone at the Amex, and in Dicks bar, and there were some magnificent tributes and words of comfort made by club and supporters inc on here. Do not know to this day who left a big blue and white flag with his name on it in the garden of remembrance. Thank you if it was someone here. Please PM me.

I was going to say I thought I recognised the name of his son, Lewis, as I remember Chris sharing the extremely sad news of his passing on here. Complete and sincere apologies to all concerned if I've got the wrong man, but yes, I take my hat off to Mr Hammans anyway. He deserves every tribute going.

That’s him. Your memory serves you well Sir! Unlike mine, forget last weekends score sometimes but can still remember hundreds from the 1980s and 90s! How, why, does that happen?!
