As I said on a recent thread, he’s a real favourite in Dingwall.

I rated him at us. Thought he was just lacking in confidence.

He is, was announced when he signed. Hopefully every Hibs fan who is loving that weren't the same ones who got overly offended at Skatchel wearing 51 for Dundee utd.

Wouldn’t say he lacked confidence, he was coming back from injury at a time where we had Hanlon, Ambrose and McGregor all playing well as well as porteous breaking through. Was just bad timing. He wanted to play so we granted him a move to county. He is and forever will be a legend

Never even thought of that, good point though!

Confidence is not something Fonts lacked, he was just unfortunate to be up against some incredibly talented defenders for a place. He'd have walked in to most Hibs defences over the last ten to fifteen years.

I'd say the difference is Fonts is actually celebrating the 32 win, Skacel was only ever wanting to noise us up.

A really good defender who served us well on and off the pitch. Ironically his confidence and wit shines through here.

For a happy second the thread title had me excited: I thought The Rangers were being wound up, as in going into liquidation.
Aww well.....

I have to wonder if you ever saw him play with a comment like that.

An true pro with no lack of confidence at all.

I remember watching Fontaine away at Alloa in what was, I think, his 2nd game for us and he was awful. We lost 2-1 and he was like Bambi on ice on that pitch and looked like he was all set to be a total dud.

He turned out not bad! Scottish Cup winning legend who took the club to his heart and rarely let us down. He was just unlucky that other players took advantage when he was injured and he never really got an opportunity to get back in the side.

His message to the fans he put out on his twitter after the league cup final against Ross County showed the measure of the man. Brave, bold, takes responsibility, takes pride in what he does and took great pride in playing for our cup.

Agree entirely. As for the tweet, I wasn't able to open the link in OP but if it's the same thing I saw the other night, I'm sure it could have just been seeing as reminiscing out late winner from a corner as opposed to 'winding up the huns'.

Though no doubt he'll have achieved both :greengrin

Thought he was immense during his time here under Stubbs. Hibs legend.

I absolutely love his reaction to Malonga's goal in a ER derby that was used for the half season ticket push with the dark jokes soundtrack over the drone footage.
