I'm assuming Omeonga will miss this one, but if not then he's another that likes to chase the keeper down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be hilarious if Omeonga got his first goal, getting the ball kicked off his arse by Birighitti back into the net. It's about the only way i could see Omeonga ever scoring, his shots are so wild. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kempes Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Obileye apparently out for the season with suspected ligament damage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Egan-Riley went over the ball with his studs into Obileye's ankle. Nasty wee c**t. Huge blow to Livi and to Obileye himself. He's a leader for us and scores some vital goals from set pieces. Ach well, there's Fitzwater and De Lucas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen a few tackles worse than what Holt and Pittman got sent off for, only getting yellow cards. Yeah never good seeing a player injured, from a totally selfish view it might well work out good for us having de Lucas playing now. Looks better on the ball than Boyes & Obileye, and even Fitzwater, bringing it out of defence, and is a big unit of a player that is meant to be aggressive in challenges and ball winning, however he hasn't the experience of our mad paced Scottish football yet, so hopefully he'll get used to it really quickly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durnford Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Sportscene weren't exactly complimentary about Fitzwater and I don't think they were that wide of the mark. Once all the transfer rumours started his performance seemed to drift. His positioning particularly for Hibs second was appalling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamilton in goals. He has one prior appearance this season. Boyes is 21 and has only been in the team since late December. Then De Lucas has a whopping 14 minutes under his belt as a Livi player. We'll need the rest of the team to play well to keep the pressure off our central defence and goalkeeper in this match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be appealing the Fitzwater red to give us the extra option for this game. Tbf home to Dundee United is probably the 'best' game for him to miss. The next game is Ross County who have White and Brophy finding a bit of spark, then away to St Mirren after that. If Obileye and George are out for a significant spell I'd probably just get it over with and have Fitz out for this one, and hope that Holt and/or Sean Kelly are able to provide a good block from midfield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menga Bus Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Noticed someone saying that due to Fitzwater already having a straight red this season, this will result in a 3 game ban this time? Any clarification on that would be nice, but looks like we’ll be stuck with De Lucas and Boyes for the rest of the month. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, this suggests that this is at least half right - out for 2 games unless I'm reading it wrong.

After watching United on Saturday night I’m going for a United win, with the proviso that Edwards is nowhere near the team and whoever is in goal gets lucky. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozam76 Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 No clean sheets in this one. I fancy Nouble to run riot, whilst my confidence levels in whatever makeshift defensive unit we field are lower than a a snakes belly. I actually think United will win quite comfy, but that is no doubt sheer pessimism as our form has dropped like a stone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chance of a shower Tuesday afternoon, after which the temperature in Livi will barely get above freezing and be as low as -4. Not a chance this will be on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with the covers I suspect this wont be enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
