Thank Gawd for Deeks

[Kevvy1875]

As the title says. Forget the 'hes lazy' crap and all the other negative BS you hear. This guy is the only player we have right now who looks like he can score.

Take Deeks away and we are doomed under Yogi. Lucky for us that Derek has never been an injury prone player because if that was to happen then we would be in deep ******.

:agree: :top marks

[Phil MaGlass]

I mentioned that earlier on another thread, we would be bottom of the league without him.
Hughes Must Go

[IWasThere2016]

There's only one Derek Riordan! :agree:

[TowerHibs]

He was far from lazy today, he made that opportuinty for Nish's disallowed goal (embarrassed he let himself drift offside)

Knowing Derek, he will be simply peeved at the rest of the players and the manager - if Yogi doesn't go or turn this around, i can see Derek not signing a new deal

[hibee_girl]

He certainly wasn't lazy today. There was one point when the Hamilton midfield were running the show, not one of our midfielders went anywhere near them to attempt to make a tackle. It took Deek tracking back to win us the ball back.

[IWasThere2016]

Just saw that hibee_girl. Great application (borne out of frustration no doubt)

You may have spoke to soon, I heard that Riordan picked up a calf injury in the game today and was struggling to walk after the game and is a doubt for the cup game against Killie on Wednesday.:boo hoo:

[bethebest]

The only way we look like scoring is when he is on the ball.

There is a depressing lack of creativity in this team.

Should he pick up an injury or suspension we would be f*****

Petrie, sign em up...

[Westie1875]

Bump, again today. :wink:

[HibbyAndy]

I love Derek Riordan.

This lazy myth in recent weeks has been well and truly put to bed IMO.


Works his socks of for HIS team and HIS club, I shudder with absolute fear to think of a Hibs team without DR.

[khib70]

Bump, again today. :wink:
Good bump. Had a very good game and scored a wonder goal, despite having to plough a lone furrow for much of the game. His being injured doesn't bear thinking about.

[Judas Iscariot]

Legend..

END OFF!!

Hibs talisman. We should get him signed up for life and make him Captain. If it dosn't happen and he walks away having been offered nothing from Hibs then I will have to seriously question why I bother to support them. I would think it would be a real kick in the nuts for many a Hibs fan if they dont get it sorted.

[nonshinyfinish]

Contract.

Now.

[Riordans Boots]

Contract.

Now.

:agree:

[Keith_M]

You can really see why he's not wanted by Levein, he's creative AND scores goals. No place in the Scotland set-up for a player liker that.


Petrie, get him signed up on an extended contract, now!

[Westie1875]

Contract.

Now.

Best lift you could give the fans at the moment IMO :agree:

[IWasThere2016]

New deal now please :agree:

[Sir David Gray]

:singing: One Derek Riordan there's only one Derek Riordan:singing:

What a shame. We could be doing with eleven Derek Riordans. :boo hoo:

The guy is a legend and if he hadn't blotted his copybook by signing for Celtic for two years, he would be pretty much perfect.

[Andy74]

As usual it takes two sides. I'm sure hibs will be trying to keep him. Derek would do well to be reasonable this time.

[bethebest]

:singing: Petrie, sign him up:singing:

TBH, take Derek out that team and there's nothing worth watching.
I trust you get my drift, O Tachied One. ............ :deal:

[Bishop Hibee]

Fantastic talent, Hibee great, only player in the starting XI who gets the fans off there seats, get him signed up on a FIVE YEAR contract Petrie :grr:

Those "nearer the know' than me suggest it's far from a done deal :boo hoo:

[silverhibee]

How do you know he wasn't reasonable the last time round.
And you say Hibs will be trying to keep him, they are keeping very quiet about thats for sure, that quiet that Derek and his representive's have heard nothing from Hibs about extending his contract, imo Hibs wont offer Derek a new extended contract and he will leave in the next tansfer window, to secure he is playing football for another few seasons but it wont be with hibs sadly, unless they break the bank to keep him at ER.
Serious question, how much should Hibs be offering Derek to sign up for the next three seasons and become a legend at the club, if he is not already.
Hibs need Derek Riordan to stay at the club and sign an improved contract, but do the board want to do it, i say no they dont want to.

Derek's wonder strike can now be seen on the free view player on the front page of the official site.

Quality strike :thumbsup:

IMO, Derek Riordan should be offered a contract that would make him the highest paid player in the club's history.

He is that important to us. Without him we would be in serious trouble.

He appears to be dragging us along kicking and screaming right now.

A little bit more than he signed for the last time... How much was that again:confused:

[snooky]

Guid goal my ar$e.
I have to agree with the powers that be, he's no' Hibs class.
Nae contract for that wee scallywag.
Let him go.







And now some news from the real world ....
:grr::grr::grr::grr::grr::grr::grr::grr::grr::grr:

[DH1875]

The sooner this gets sorted the better. Will be having nightmares if he hasn't signed anything come christmas.

[nonshinyfinish]

Superb :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

But look at what he does after the goal, jogging back casually. Completely fails to pick up a Celtc player. :bitchy:

[Onceinawhile]

That goal is obscene.

If he is allowed to leave it is nothing short of a disgrace.:agree:

As good as Derek is, I don't want us to break the bank for any player.

He has been far from lazy for going on a year - one thing that Hughes deserves some credit for is this apparent change in attitude from such a talented player under his guidance - although the majority of the credit must go to the player himself.

[The Harp Awakes]

Can't see Rod making the same mistake twice. Allowing Deek to go again for next to nowt would be the equivalent of football suicide.
