hoobahabba Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Amazing news about Rafa. He was a brilliant player for us at this level between 2010-2011. Hopefully the four months out of playing regular football haven't impacted on his confidence/ability. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasps1 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 10 hours ago, Monkey Tennis said: It's amazing. The catastrophic club that is Livingston, has once more ballsed up, yet the person managing to look like the biggest arse on here, is an Alloa fan. What a disastrous, childish wee twat Wasps1 is. Pulled up for being conceitedly wrong, he fires back about a team losing. Truly desperate. As for the whole Crusaders thing, I feel sorry for the Livingston fans. Most on here are being perfectly sensible in accepting what's happened and what probably lies in store. When you see the highlights though, it was a game that meant plenty and provided a great moment. Once more though, it's been wrecked by administrative incompetence. Wasps1 though... And your point is !!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andylivi1 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 So the Irn Bru cup game against crusaders is to be replayed on Tuesday 1st November at 7:45. Fair to say we have been given a second chance, I fully expected to be kicked out of the competition. Cant see many of any Livi fans making the trip this time around with it being midweek but thankful to have another chance at it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liviguy Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 I can see us getting beat not sure that the players will be up for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers1992/1993 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Quick question, what happens if you do get beat? Will they have to re-do the draw for the next round? As they have already stated that they will be keeping Non-Scottish teams separate at this stage and if you were to get beat then it would be a Crusaders v TNS quarter final of the Scottish Irn Bru cup That would be extremely embarassing for the SFA if that were to happen? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 (edited) Would think the players will be right up for it, wasn't their fault this happened, it was the Club's. Would think they'll be determined to win it again to get through to play TNS. Need to win to break even now with the 4k fine plus cost of expenses for a 2nd trip, nobody to blame but themselves though but the players and fans suffer, as usual. Do you think Lithgow will be ok to play, now he's served a two match suspension (Peterheid & Albion Rovers) ?

Durnford Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 (edited) Not sure anyone would be that keen to play TNS. With all due respect to The New Saints playing a game on a Sunday, televised but no share of the revenue, is a guaranteed all time low gate (you'd have to be some dedicated fan to make the 700 mile round trip on a Sunday when its already being shown live on S4C). Wouldn't be surprised if the losses for having to play this game far outstripped the fine or indeed the prize money for getting through to the next round. Maybe we could play it on the field turf if we get through? Realistically it would have been better for all parties is the tie had simply been awarded to Crusaders and they could then properly prepared to play TNS. To be perfectly honest it would probably make for more interesting television spectacle anyway. The bizarre thing is that we actually played a weakened team against the Crusaders last time with the reserve goalkeeper and another fringe player starting the game but couldn't leave Lithgow out for Neill. As far as I recall there's not limit on the number of first team players that have to be played in the Iron Bru cup; when we played Hearts a couple of seasons back they only played, I think, two first team players? I know a lot of the Livi support were upset that the original tie what held on a Friday night due to an agreement with the SFA and some pay per view channel and now its being held on a Tuesday night. As far as I could see there is no way of getting back from Belfast on the same night The £4,000 fine is a sore one but frankly the management have noone to blame but themselves.

Crusader Knight Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 A strange and bad decision. Bad for Crusaders in view of an extra midweek game in a squad of part-time players already stretched with injuries. Bad for Livi with the fine plus additional expenses.

Durnford Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 With both Crusaders and Livi not being particularly thrilled about staying in the competition I am reminded of an episode of Porridge where Lennie Godber had taken up boxing but "the genial" Harry Grout wanted him to throw the match; another gangland leader wanted his opponent to throw the match so it was a race against the clock as to who would hit the canvas first. I just have this vision of both teams playing their youth teams or its a case of who can score the most own goals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIVIFOREVER Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Pretty sure Livi want to stay in the comp, we've had the chance earlier to field reserve players against Celtic colts but we didn't and took it seriously. Don't think Hopkin will be going over to lose this game. Would've been better had the SPFL either awarded the game to Crusaders or given us an 8k fine and let the result stand, would've drawn a line under it and 5 teams affected by this would know exactly where they stand, without having to wait till next Tues. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
