Started out well with us, an Alan Forrest type player, attacking winger taking defenders on and having shots at goal. Rumoured to have had a falling out with Martindale and stuck out on loan several times. Had high hopes for him at Livi but don't know what's happening with him now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be away in the summer apparently. Every chance he leaves us permanently in this window too, he wont be a Livi player much longer either way. Mainly down to attitude issues and falling out with Martindale Edited January 9, 2023 by ATLIS 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLIS Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Martindale talking about getting an assistant in that will have a 'long term relationship' with the club. Sounds a wee bit like he's looking out to pick his successor maybe with an eye to stepping aside down the line once his assistant has learned under him. One of those ones that maybe came a couple of years too early for Bartley but a similar idea possibly 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wrong Car Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Interestingly I took it to mean that Martindale wanted some continuity with his staff, rather than having a specific exit plan. I don't see Martindale going back to solely the transfer side of the game, now he's used to signing and working with player on the training pitch Given he also mentions that he'll use QOTS as a club similar to Arbroath and Morton, I suspect they might get some loans in January 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptn Hooch Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I'm pretty sure Hastings will be the next assistant. It fits with Davie's love on continuity and someone who knows the club. As for Hasting's replacement in the coaching role it'll likely be someone like Imrie or Bartley in that they're not long retired and have a bit of coaching experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wrong Car Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I'd be happy with that as long as the new coach can work with the defence like Bartley did. That's probably more important that job titles at this stage 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Jack Hamilton finds his way back from Hartlepool this month then he might go too. It sounds like Kabia won't be a Livi player much longer but I see he's playing for the reserves today. Perhaps he'll find his way to Queens to see fi there's anything salvageable 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wrong Car Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Kabia seems very involved in the game, going by the Twitter updates My only concern about Cancar and Hamilton is that it's probably a level too low. Cancar came from the A-League, and Hamilton is already fairly proven at Championship level for his age 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLIS Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I can only see Cancar going out if Fitzwater stays IMO. It'd help if Parkes is further along than we thought but it'd maybe leave us a little short 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wrong Car Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Agreed, if Fitzwater stays and De Lucas is confirmed we'll have Boyes, Obileye, Fitzwater and De Lucas plus the likes of Longridge and Kelly as emergency cover, meaning Cancar would benefit from game time at some level. If Jack does go, we're back to being fairly short on options. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also found out quite quickly Kelly isn't either De Lucas/Ayo/Boyes/Cancar are decent options, there's one backup for each CB. If Fitzwater stays then fair enough it's probably too much, same for if Parkes is back February-ish 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, Martindale will no doubt say he's happy with that before signing some random Thai-based player who played for Scunthorpe 4 years ago 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martindale will know where he's at though, but I was just speculating what we could do if he was available a bit earlier than thought 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was how I read it too. Made me think to expect someone with experience who's happy being assistant at Livi for the long run rather than wanting to use it as a stepping stone into management/a bigger club. Hastings would make most sense in terms of what we've come to expect from appointments, but I don't think it fits with the "long term" chat and Martindale not wanting to keep losing coaches, Hastings is only 31 (?) so every chance we're still doing well and someone offers him another manager role. Unless he's specifically said he wants to be here for the long haul (probably been involved with Livi for 90% of his life), possibly with the 'promise' that once Martindale steps aside, it's his job to take. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
