LiviLion Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 St Mirren fans have this weird need to have a rivalry with Livingston, eh? They must miss Morton. Shame no one gives enough of a f**k about their tinpot little club. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durnford Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Everybody taken the grumpy pill today? I'm not a fan of Stokes but the simple truth is we sign who we can afford. Of all the player we've signed over the past couple of years I still have trouble believing Bartley was dumped by Hibs and we picked him up on free. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently you've only shifted 200, and are skint. Is that true? I know you have shite support, but 200? Can’t comment on the season tickets but is it my imagine or did Livvy not just sell Dykes for £2m ? Even if it’s a structured deal over a period of time I don’t think they’ll be skint !! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually, when Bartley gets dumped, it ends up in a court case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame no one gives enough of a f**k about their tinpot little club. I don't really think about Morton, to be honest. I've always wanted a rivalry with Thistle, as I have often worked with their supporters and they're more our level. I was just wondering whether you'd really only sold 200 STs. Genuinely. See Cambiebud's reply: https://www.blackandwhitearmy.com/forums/index.php?/topic/50928-kristian-dennis/page/3/#comments Do you not see any irony in calling a club founded in 1877 'tinpot', given your own club's history? You're basically a franchise. 2 hours ago, crispy said: 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. I think it's probably also attributable to the fact Livingston is a new town, and folk have roots elsewhere. Clyde and Livingston are similar in that respect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Given the chance I'm sure Stokes will score goals, how many I suppose remains to be seen, but on paper you wouldn't consider him a bad signing. I do wonder about the baggage he comes with. Obvs if the choice was sign him or be relegated, all our respective clubs would make that call, but that's not really the issue here. Even without Stokes I'd expect Livi to continue making a decent fist of things, even if they have made a slow start. However could this be the first billy big baws signing that the club have made recently. All the other players they've added have either been unknown (to the majority) foreigners, younger players with potential, or seasoned players who won't rock the boat. Stokes seems to break that mould. I'll not lie, I wouldn't want him at my club, but that's not suggesting he will automatically fail at Livi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call it rehabilitation Hendo doesn't believe in second chances, he's a fire and brimstone kinda guy, string em up and hang them high. Rehabilitation has redact editing in his dictionary, to say, person that is forever guilty of a crime and will burn in hell for all eternity. Wonder though if he stalks the Motherwell board looking for any opportunity to post about Gallagher's past dealings with a baseball bat, and any other club with a player that has a checkered past (i'd imagine there'd be quite a few), or if he's just got some obsession with Livingston. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 So, what's been the worst thing for livi this week?Losing Dykes?Signing Stokes?Or the realisation that you're getting relegated and are going to have to apologise to Tam Cowan? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinner-to-Saint Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Commiserations! For what it's worth, you don't look like a bottom of the table side, and have played some of the better sides this year. Chin up, there's a long way to go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghLivi Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Fair play to Mr. X for eventually returning after being laughed at for not realising the Gary Maley twitter poll was a joke. Hadn't heard from him in a while. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
