Looks like Dicky's going to sign his new contract :022: :022: :022:

He's been superb this season, our most consistent player in my opinion.

[RiG]

He's 30!?  :017:

He looks no different than when he first appeared for us.

[Harry Chibber]

agree and agree

One of the least mentioned players on this forum, which can only be a good thing :023:

[Caley Mad In Berks]

Excellent news.  I think he has generally been one of our most underrated players.  Glad to see he is now more appreciated.

[CaleyD]

Think **** learned a pretty big lesson in regards contract talks a few years back when is faffing about ended up in a move to C*unty.

[tm4tj]

If he gets the crosses sorted out he will have had a superb season.

He has a great engine in him, if only he could cross like Robson.

I am very pleased that he has recognised my critisism from earlier in the season and improved his game... he is however still under my scrutiny.

Player of the season so far IMO  :025:

[Guest Suspicious Mind]

Great news!

Richard is IMO up there for consideration as the best left back in the league. Naylor at Celtic produces more going forward but doesn't cope with the same pressure as Hastings. Noticeable how, once again, Sproule couldn't get past him with pace or otherwise.

Very happy.

I think **** - whom we all love - has improved greatly since he went away. He has tasted both Ross-shire and Champions league footy, but has decided that his best interests lie with the club that brought him on. We have not seen the best of him yet. Great news.

He's a JUDAS!!!

[Scotty]

He's a JUDAS!!!

Oh grow up .... he was a confused young man who has now seen the error of his ways as he got older and wiser.  :002:

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

He's 30!?  :017:

He looks no different than when he first appeared for us.

But he has changed since his days at County. Here he is with two County fans.

I right!!!....More like he came running back because no one else would offer him a contract,he's a JUDAS!!! It will never be forgotten!!! :005:

  If you keep up with the latest , it seems Judas wasn't a bad guy.

Can't believe the flak Hastings gets in these forums. He's undeniably one of our best players and will be a huge loss if he leaves.

Will he ever be forgiven for having a bit of ambition a few years ago and attempting to play at a higher level? Probably not, because there's some bitter, pedantic people about. OK, so it didn't work out in the end - thankfully he came back to us, a greatly improved player.

How come Barry Wilson seems to be so readily forgiven for defecting to Livingston? And playing for Ross County? The 2 teams we hate most!

Apart from Elgin City.

And Gretna.

Oh yeah, and the OF. . . . .

Play at a higher level??? What with County??

Barry Wilson learned the error of his ways (And That County are a bunch of "£$%^*") Moved to Livi when it was plain for everyone to see they were going to get to the SPL,that is someone moving to play at a higher level along with many more of our ex-players who i would never slag

Hastings tried to hold the club to ransom and squeeze more money out of them,when he realised he wasn't going to get it he crossed to the Dark side!!!

[buckett]

Remember we were mid-table 1st division at the time.

He actually went to Holland and I think it was Austria to broaden his horizons.

I think you're making too much of the short spell he spent with County!  :018:

And of course he came back to us in the end.

Thankfully!
