Getting written off by a lot of our fans before even seeing him play, if he's even got half the talent he had 4 years ago he'll be a decent signing for us. Got to trust Holt and Martindale having sussed him out to see if he'd fit in with our hard working ethic, and not just on past reputation, surely! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Averaged 1 attempt at winning a ball off opposition players per 90 minutes. Around the same for attempting headers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Griffiths would be a player we'd want anyway, fantastic player but a fecking idiot and may be a disruptive influence. I think the spot in the squad for a fecking idiot has just been taken. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durnford Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Feel he still has a couple of years left in him if he's prepared to knuckle down and build up his fitness. Obviously he's played with a couple of our boys previously but he always seems to have had a discipline problem. With the strict social distancing rules introduced as a result of the pandemic; I really worry that he's going to drop us right in it by doing something stupid; maybe even getting Scottish football halted altogether as threatened by the Scottish government. As shown by the examples of Aberdeen and Celtic; the club can only do so much in controlling their players. We seem to have signed one who has previously shown to be uncontrollable. Pretty sure he will score goals; but at what cost? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy.1995 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Yeh agree D.But even this early in the season.Weve got a player albeit the baggage he brings with him.Hes Quality in the forward situation we currently find ourselves in, Fact.So many negativites before hes even kicked a ball..Im confident we'll climb the table.And im sure someone of his quality if fit wont let us down.Watch this space 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinner-to-Saint Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 There's speculation on our forum about your season ticket sales? Apparently you've only shifted 200, and are skint. Is that true? I know you have shite support, but 200? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reveal hidden contents Aye, I was a bit blunt, admittedly. I actually have a lot of respect for Livi fans. Your club not only lives in the shadow of the OF, with umpteen buses departing for Glasgow each week, no doubt, but also the Edinburgh clubs. You had a pretty good season last year, and yet are still struggling to sell STs. We've sold > 3,200, despite preserving our top flight status in the last game of the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) The Old Firm and Edinburgh clubs thing is without doubt the biggest challenge. Do you think affluence has any role? I read an article that said women in Livingston were joint lowest paid in the Lothians. I can’t imagine the men are making that much more. There are low income areas dotted across the country so it may not be a significant differentiator.
