Career
Born in Newcastle upon Tyne, Pickard began his career at Queen of the South and was first called up to a senior game on 22 November 2014 in a 2–0 home victory over Raith Rovers in the Scottish Championship.[1] A week later Pickard made his debut in the fourth round of the Scottish Cup, replacing goalscorer Derek Lyle for the final four minutes of a 4–1 win versus Brora Rangers at Palmerston Park.[2] Pickard's league debut was on 24 January 2015 when he replaced Ian McShane for the final eight minutes of a 2–0 home defeat to Hibernian.[3] Pickard appeared a further ten times, all as a substitute, as his team reached the promotion play-offs.
Pickard departed the Doonhamers on 20 January 2017, in an attempt to find first-team football away from Dumfries.[4]
In February 2017, Pickard signed for Washington for the second half of the 2016–17 season and was retained for the 2017–18 season.[5]
