Twice now. And still undefeated at the Spaghettihad in 4 (FOUR) seasons against Celtic. 2 hours ago, Drew Brees said: 15 secs for 1st booking. Livi’s game plan plain to see.

Jinky67 Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 6 minutes ago, Mr. Alli said: He inherited the second best squad in the league, he has spent £20m. You can't guarantee success. Spending that amount of money in this league and sitting with something like a 50% win rate is embarrassingly poor. Still, its not his fault your club is barely hanging on to their top six position. It's all Lennon and Lawell's. 20 million is the least you would need to spend to replace Edouard, Ajer, Moi and Christie never mind build an entire squad Whats the combined transfer value of those 4? 35-40 million? MON had to spend in excess of 30 million to rebuild after Barnes and that was 20 years ago. Did you watch Celtic last season and think to yourself that we look like a club that was being run, managed and coached well? Really? Did us pining after Eddie Howe and waiting the length of time we did also suggest that we were on it and setting ourselves up for success this season? I know your a bit of a gobshite and can’t wait to put the boot into Celtic but even for you to suggest that just a change of manager and CEO (who is also no longer there) should make things automatically better is a bit of a take so yes a 50% win rate is embarrassingly poor however it was also always a possibility that we could really struggle this year no matter how much we spent 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIVIFOREVER Posted September 19, 2021 Author Share Posted September 19, 2021 Some performance by the Livi Lions, Shinnie was magnificent as our target man, class touches bringing the ball into him and helping us get it out our half when needed, brilliant goal too. Devlin was like a man possessed, ridiculous booking from the ref right at the start, but still didn't deter him from a great performance. Big Obileye was solid in defence, think he has one of the top interceptions in the league, and Stryjek pulled off some brilliant saves when required. Wasn't even our best XI but what a team effort. Who the f**k needs a striker to win games, when you have a class player like Shinnie as a target man!!! Said on the Liviroom forum it would just be like us to win our first league game against Celtic on Sunday. Fucking Yasssss. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well no because these players leave Celtic much better than they did when they arrived. We need to replace the quality that left not the quality that arrived and we developed. Surely that would be regression? Edited September 19, 2021 by Jinky67 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of these players have only played 3 or 4 games so difficult to tell. Others such as Kyogo, Abada have done pretty well. Starfelt for sure looks like we overspent and Hart has done well in some games, if not for him today it would have been more 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're claiming Ange is on a hiding to nothing because a guy you borrowed for about three months (and was shite) isn't still at the club. You got carried away with him appearing - and his signings. You don't want to lose face now Rome is burning and I get that. Sometimes less is more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't want to lose face now Rome is burning and I get that. Sometimes less is more. How many starts did Ralston have last season compared to Kenny? Ange hasn’t even had the luxury of a shite Kenny to start with The squad isn’t as good/strong as it was last season and it was never ever likely to be in just 1 window. And the signings need to be given time, many of them haven’t even a handful of games. And Rome burned to the ground last season. We are still picking through the rubble but I like Ange, i like what he is trying to do however the road back from the clusterfuck of last season was never going to be straightforward irrespective of how much money we chucked at it He needs to start picking up results away or he won’t last too long, that’s the reality and it always has been But here’s a thought also, we are only 4 points from the top despite our worst start to a season for 32 years and many of our best players still to return i.e Forrest, Kyogo, Julien and McGregor. This situation is recoverable and results could also quickly change. Edited September 19, 2021 by Jinky67 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans are gonna have to put up with a few head scratchers. As pish as we were today, Celtic are gonna need to come up with some answers for Livingston and that pitch sooner rather than later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
