Kmcalpin Posted December 28, 2022 Report Share Posted December 28, 2022 Ok lets look forward to next Monday and the beginning of a crucial run of games. Livingston will be a tough nut to crack on their horrible pitch. They may be without 2 of their players due to suspension. Its a game we can't afford to lose. Plenty of questions though. Will some of our lads be a bit fitter and have recovered from illness? Should Oxborough start in goal? Will Blaney be fit enough to start? One things for sure - more of the same simply won't do.

santheman Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 We all know how Livi will set up and that it will be a battle especiallly in midfield. We really need our guys to step up to the plate and show some bottle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkyred Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 For me a really crucial game but as we know it’s never easy on that Livi pitch. Options look to be limited and as such those key players just have to step up and cut out the stupid mistakes. Sadly I fear another defeat.

MJC Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 Can’t see us winning here either, a draw is the best we’ll get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texanwellfan Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 A draw in this fixture is a reasonable expectation and a decent result. A win would obviously be much better but we shouldn’t be all doom and gloom if we only get a draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 A draw wouldn’t be a disaster but we really need wins if we want to get ourselves away from the lower reaches of the table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellsince75 Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 3 points served up in any way shape or form would be excellent. Need something to inject a bit of confidence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 Point and a half decent solid performance shall do for me just something to give us some bloody hope. IF we don't get anything from Livi game it could turn nasty folk are getting pretty pissed off by the looks of things. onwards and upwards.

Motherwellfc1991 Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 Livi have a clued up manager who knows how to grind out a win and shut up shop, we have the opposite . The also have street wise hard working players who are always up for a battle , unfortunately we don’t. Home win I’m afraid and more of Hammell being disappointed and wanting to learn from mistakes and more of team burrows telling us he needs a fair shot at it with a January and summer transfer window. I hope I am so wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha1886 Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 Tried to get tickets online. No option shown for away fans. Only offered sections M, N , P in East stand. Think that's for home support. Tried phoning Livingston. Rang out. Anyone been able to get tickets? Can buy at stadium - but no doubt there'll be lengthy queues if everyone's doing that.

When you click the link under the tickets section it directs you to the Livi website so it looks like you have to register and such. I phoned Livi direct yesterday and they fixed my tickets quickly for our end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I am so wrong That clued up manager has already lost against us under Hammell this season! We’ll just ignore the soft red card and dodgy penalty that contributed to that win 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretzel Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 Penney received his fifth yellow of the season midweek, I wonder if he misses this game. Obviously Blaney will be available as his official transfer goes through on the 1st, nice to see that he's been training with us for a few weeks though. We performed well against Livi earlier in the season they never got a sniff and we were guilty of passing up numerous chances before the ref threw us a lifeline. The game will certainly not be a classic on that pitch but hopefully we can take home the badly needed three points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellfan Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 Livi will shithouse their way to a victory at The Spaghettihad. We've not got what it takes to win such a fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 Despite never having seen a decent game against them, our record is actually very good. I fancy us for a low scoring draw...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 Livi are going to have such an easy shift against our midfield they they won't even break a sweat they are not to shy getting stuck in and don't stop running. Spittal has the worst gas tank I have seen since Ross Forbes.13 mins into the Rangers game Spittal was looking like he had just ran an ultra marathon puffing an auld dug. A point at this stage will seem like a victory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted December 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 Livingston appealed red cards for Holt & Pittman, as they would, but lost both. Presumably both will miss Monday's game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
