During this spell in Inverness he was an important player for the team and became ''Caley Thistle's'' first full-time player. A constant member of the squad that won promotion to the Scottish First Division, Hastings was also part of the team that beat Celtic in the Scottish Cup in 2000. In 2001 ''Richie'' Hastings joined Ross County, before spells at Grazer AK and Maastricht. In 2004 he returned to Caley Thistle. He was the only international capped player at Inverness Caledonian Thistle after the departure of Marius Niculae. In his second spell at Caley Thistle he scored twice: against Dunfermline in the league and Morton in the Scottish League Cup. Hastings was released from his contract with Hamilton at the end of the 2009–10 season. On 11 February 2011 Hastings announced his retirement as a player. The announcement was not surprising, as the 33-year-old had been without a cluhb since the end of the 2009–10 season. In 2012 Hastings came out of retirement and signed for Highland League side Brora Rangers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Richard Hastings」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
