Club career

Kilmarnock

Hamill made his senior debut on 7 April 2007 in a 1–0 defeat to Hearts [1] and won the fans' Man of the Match award for the game. [2] Hamill started against Hibernian [3] and made two further substitute appearances that season. [4]

At the start of the 2007–08 season his hard work over the summer was rewarded with a start against Celtic, Kilmarnock held the hosts to a 0–0 draw in what was Kilmarnock's first point at Celtic Park in over nine years. [5] He scored his first goal for the club in a Scottish Cup game against Airdrie, [6] following this up with his second goal in the competition against Celtic in a 5–1 defeat in the next round. [7] Hamill firmly established himself as a member of the first team that season making thirty two league appearances. [8]

Hamill also scored on the opening game of the 2008–09 season, in a home game against Hibernian, which finished 1–0 to Kilmarnock. [9] He repeated the feat in the two following season, scoring the third goal in a 3–0 win against Hamilton [10] and against Rangers in a narrow 2–1 defeat scoring a late consolation penalty. [11] He was sent off for the first time in his career on 29 January 2011 picking up a second yellow in the 29th minute against Hamilton. [12]

Hamill made 149 appearances in all competitions for Kilmarnock, scoring 19 goals. [13]

Heart of Midlothian

Hamill signed for Hearts on 25 May 2011, [14] on a three-year contract. He made his competitive debut against Paks in a Europa League qualifier, and scored a penalty in first half stoppage time to secure a 1–1 away draw, [15] with his league debut came on 7 August against Motherwell. [16] Hamill quickly became Hearts new penalty taker in the absence of Kevin Kyle, [17] having scored one in a friendly against Royal Antwerp [18] and scored against St Mirren on 17 September in the league. [19] His first miss from the spot came against St Johnstone a game Hearts lost 2–1. [20] On 24 December, Hamill was stretchered off during a match against Motherwell, [21] having suffered a recurrence of an ankle injury. [22] Both penalties after his miss were taken by other players and missed with Hamill pledging to return to penalty duties. [23] Towards the end of the 2011–12 season, Hamill suffered a rupture of a cruciate knee ligament. [24] On 19 April 2014, during a 2-0 Scottish Premiership win over Ross County, Hamill was involved in a curious altercation while celebrating scoring a penalty, having been shoved by Ross County player Yann Songo'o - he then barged into Staggies manager Derek Adams on the touchline, resulting in the Ross County boss falling to the floor and Hamill receiving the second yellow card from referee Willie Collum. [25] He was given a four match ban for the incident, with one of the matches suspended until the end of the following season. [26]
