New Hamilton signing Tom Sparrow revealed Accies legend Alex Neil sent him north on a rescue mission to get them out of the relegation mire.
And the 19-year-old hopes if he can help them pull off a great escape, it just might land him a new deal at Stoke City.
Stoke gaffer Neil has done his old side a favour by loaning out the youngster, who can play in defence or midfield, on a deal until the end of the season, as Accies aim to claw their way off the bottom of the Championship table.
