  1. News to me that its not... Anywhere we can keep up to date with the latest strategy of the society? The page on the official site doesnt give much away.
  2. Not that I've seen and nothing on the official site. Just saw hes not in the u21 squad and putting 2 and 2 together.
  3. When allan campbell went off injured on sat, was it a bad one? And is he out for a few games? I just assumed it was a sore one but nothing serious. Just noticed hes been omitted from the u21 squad when hes been a stalwart in that team.
  4. Aye I think it was 2 games, county and today
  5. Haha yeah, you're right. We missed him badly - you know what I mean, or I did at least Edited now
  6. All in all a good point and enjoyable game. They battered us for a period at the end of the first half and start of the second and thought it was going to be a really long second half after they scored. But both teams had chances to win in the end. Missed Campbell badly, but thought maguire did well second half. Ref did us absolutely no favours. How hearts only ended up with 2 yellows is a mystery. I'll be interested to see the wee scrap between aarons and Naismith where aarons got booked, as I could have sworn Naismith had a kick at aarons and got away with it.
  7. With Aberdeen playing hibs, 3 points would be absolutely massive here. Livi playing away from home as well. Not much choice but to field the same lineup that started last night. Unless we can somehow play both long and watt? Don't see it myself but both showed their ability on wed - long was class and some finish from watt. Cant decide whether or not I'd settle for a point now, given hearts' recent rejuvenation.
  8. Could have went for long but campbell was just too good last night. Back to his absolute best. Long looked hungry to make up for his red at accies which was pleasing to see.
  9. We were all over them first half. What happened? What is wrong with us?? I am so sick of watching us collapse.
  10. Aye ok. Just looked and fair enough, kiddies/ families are pretty good value at fir park. I've no kids so it's not something I ever pay much attention to tbh. Category A at Fir park I assume is just celtic and rangers as they're the only clubs that will fill the south stand. I'd hope we are doing what we can to get every other club to bring as many as possible. Juvenile and family ticket is decent price tbf.
  11. Each to their own, but I personally dont get the upset about the £25 entry fee. It isn't really much more than any other away fixture. Yes, I disagree with the notion that they are charging us more when they should be trying to get as many bums on seats as possible for the derby.... but for comparison, we are charging away fans £24 for a category B fixture!! And £30 for a category A. Is it the shitty pitch, the fact its accies, or the fact it's considered a category A fixture? Not meaning to come across as condescending or anything - football is overpriced. But all things considered just not getting what the fuss is about.
  12. Not defending long at all, but there were at least 2 occasions when other of our players kicked the ball away today and werent even spoken to. Obviously glad we didnt pick up further bookings but the inconsistency in our refs is f**king frustrating. Then what declan got booked for at the end, and Gillespies booking?? The ref just seemed to want to be the centre of attention today. All in all not a terrible day - point clear in 3rd and a chance to make it 4 on tuesday. We need to pull up our socks though, been extremely lucky not to lose more ground than we have over the last few weeks.
  13. To be fair, we're not the only team who struggles to adapt to that pitch. Livingston are 3rd in the "home" league table. 24 of their 34 points have come at home which is a much higher proportion of points in comparison to the league average. Again, not an excuse for what was on show.
  14. Yes - yesterday was worse than accies. Way worse. Our only corner and only shot came in the last couple mins. Corner came to nothing and shot was a daisy cutter from about 25 yards - it did actually trouble the keeper in the end though. A bad day at the office but let's face it livi are a horrible team to play, on an even worse pitch. Time to make up for it on wednesday.
  15. Worst game of the season. Midfield were anonymous. Hoping and expecting much better on wednesday. Not making excuses here, but that pitch is abominable. Yet to see a good game played on it. Plastic pitches should be nowhere near top level football IMO, but that one really takes the piss.
  16. This is a great post, and while maybe not 100% verified, there cant be much missing there. We must have got something for robbie leitch? Sell on for johnson? Not to mention how the numbers would reflect had the turnbull deal gone through. Nevertheless it shows that were going in the right direction IMO. Since the faddy transfer, we only ever received buttons for players until a bit more recently, maybe with the exception of clarky (circa 600k?). I would love to have kept scott for the run in, he was great to watch. But we're getting ourselves into a position where it is taking significant bids to get these boys away from us. It's not too long ago we would have jumped at hulls first 750k bid. And the more wisely we invest it - the required bid is only going to go up. This is something to be positive about. Other provincial scottish clubs should take note. Burrows, if you're reading this, keep up the good work for the club we all f**king love
  17. On bbc webpage Scott Mullen is suggesting we are likely to bring someone in if scott leaves so maybe there is an iron in the fire there. Unlikely, but would love it to be dykes. I am probably in the "disappointed we accepted this" camp, given the potential for the season we have remaining. But good luck to scott if it happens, hope it doesnt prove to be too soon and we see him again in a scotland jersey in a few seasons.
  18. Long for his goals of course. But Campbell was absolutely immense.
  19. Bad day at the office - simple. Let's not read too much into it. We dominated first half hour, they came into it a bit more then were the by far better team 2nd half, and thought the tactical change did us no favours tbh. Most disappointing thing for me is it was in front of (probably) our best home turnout of the season. Really wish we could keep that level of support up. But put it into perspective, 3rd at the turn of the year is fantastic and with turnbull hopefully back in the mix for the second half of the season, I'm feeling strangely optimistic (which is not usually a good thing ).
  20. A few good performances but has to be gillespie. He made a few saves at the end of the game, which from the other end of the park looked great. Will be good to see back on the highlights.
  21. Devante cole was brilliant today
  22. St Mirren? And re Falkirk, you've got to ask where they'd be had they not moved away from Brockville. I have thought for a while a move away from FP may be a possibility sometime. I do just hope we manage to keep some sort of character to the stadium and not end up with a subbuteo ground. And thought given to transport/ accessibility hopefully also a high priority.
  23. I thought it was one of Donnelly's best games for us in terms of protecting the defence today. Particularly in the last 10 mins.
  24. I hope gallagher gets a game on sunday. It would only make sense for clarke to give guys like him, findlay and shankland a cap. Mulgrew was brutal on thursday. Tbh I was totally against clarke getting the gig. Nothing against him, he was a breath of fresh air in the premier league and worked wonders at killie, but he was the obvious choice. Ever since berti Vogts we have opted for the "obvious" choice and it is yet to work out. We need a good man manager and a bit of outside the box thinking would be nice. Absolutely no suggestions as to who so dont ask haha.
