"Just spoke to Gordon Ford - he said Deccy wasn't in plans and 'Mark already has the position covered.' So expect news on that soon...." That's what I was told.

The club never offered him a deal and weren't looking to offee him a deal, Burchill had other players lined up to replace him.

Fair enough, you'd know better than me, just a rumour I'd heard.

Always been really impressed with him when he's played against us.

Nat wedderburn from Cowdenbeath rumoured to be one of our new signings.

More information here http://bit.ly/1I3jHKj

Wait and see, more in courier tomorrow.

The 20% shares that Nixon has are the shares he originally had, it's not clear what if any involvement at all he'll have in the new set up.

Neil Hogarth 20%, graham Leslie 20%, Ged Nixon 20% and Gordon ford 40% are now shareholders in club.

Not so good after all, I'm hearing that Gordon ford is majority share holder with 40% which is good news but Nixon also has 20% of the shares. I've not heard who has the other 40% and it's not clear what if any involvement Nixon will have, fingers crossed none.SFA want more information but the club are hoping to have everything sorted by latest early next week.

Gordon Ford involved in one way or another with the club now, things to be revealed by the end of the week.

He's actually an excellent shot stopper, one of the best I've seen, but culpible when balls are whipped into the box, poor kick on him too. I would expect him to be back up for you also.

Not going to happen

So apparently Gallacher is being sent down but will sign for us and will be available when released. Thoughts ? Also hearing that Burchill has spoken too all the players he's looking to bring in and most have agreed to sign just need to wait on contracts being able to be offered.

Glen and Sives also let go

So after yesterday what's everyones thoughts on our chances of staying up ? Remaining games for each team Cowdenbeath Hearts (H) Alloa (A) Alloa QoS (H) Hibs (A) Cowdenbeath (H) Livi Rangers (H) Hibs (H) Raith Rovers (A) QoS (H) So here's my thinking, wishful thinking perhaps but by no means a long shot. Cowdenbeath lose both remaining games leaving them on 25 points Alloa lose to QoS who guarantee a playoff place and hibs but beat Cowdenbeath to sit on 26 points We manage to beat Raith rovers and a weakened QoS team who rest there players for the playoff game and also finish on 26 points but we finish 8th on goal difference. Wasn't far off in the end, absolutely delighted.

Rankine wants out and talks are ongoing

Jason Talbot won't be here next season if he can find himself another club. I also believe no matter what division we are in next season, Gallacher, both Jacobs, O'brien will all be gone as we slash the playing budget yet again.

You've heard wrong, bye now.

f**k you Nixon you'll never kill our club I think things will move along very quickly now with Rankine selling his shares.

I agree, Livi fans have learned to take things said by directors with a pinch of salt but I'm aware he is no longer running the club. There are apparantly 2 or 3 interested parties but the one I know about is supposedly being headed by a guy named Gordon Ford, he's an ex councillor and was one of the guys that brought the football club to Livingston (so I believe anyway) he is now chief executive of the Livingston Youth foundation and as I said his plan is for community ownership, artificial pitch and concentrate on youth development, ive no idea who else is involved with the consortium though, sounds like he genuinely has the best interests of the football club at heart but we've all heard that before too.

Tbh I have no idea, i think it is all hinging on the Nixon case and whether the agreement by the directors not to take any money owed until the club was making a profit was a legal agreement or not, if it wasn't then that opens up a can of worms with other directors possibly claiming money owed to them which would plummet us into admin once again, but I believe that is very unlikely as the other directors out with Nixon have already agreed no matter what the outcome they wouldn't claim it back, I know that Rankine wants nothing, he wants out and doesn't want a penny of his money owed but can't get rid of the shares until the courts come back with a decision. What I have heard is the interested party wants to turn the club into a community ownership club, lay an artificial pitch, and concentrate on youth development, there is no mention of part time football but obviously ambitions will need to be changed by fans, with a likely hood we would find out natural level yoyoing up and down from league 1 to the championship. I think if you ask most Livi fans they would be happy with this as long as the club was run properly for a change.

I have it on good authority that over 1.5m of that is owed to directors and all but one have said they won't ask for the money back as agreed, the exception being previous director Nixon. Obviously not great that we have to rely on so much from directors but once/if we are bought over by interested parties they will be able to start fresh basically dept free and get a model in place to live within our means. I've also been told that Rankine takes nothing to do with the club but can't relinquish his shares until the Nixon case has been decided, with a decision pretty close.

Hi guys, id appreciate it if you won today, then guaranteed 4th by beating Alloa on Saturday before resting your players and lying down to us last game, in return I'll be forever greatful and you'd be my favs, we did help you out by beating Falkirk ????, deal ?

Right, forget the off field problems for a second, after tonight we have gave ourselves an opportunity of staying up, Saturday away to Cowdenbeath is now our whole season, we need as many Livi fans going to this as possible to get behind the team, bring along friends, anyone you can get but we have to back the team with numbers and noise, it's been a difficult season but the players have gave everything to win us a trophy and now draw us into survival contention, let's pay them back on Saturday.
