If they want more kids playing they might as well be aiming for the 3rd division unless they have the same sort of youth set up as a club like Falkirk.

Our youth set up is better than Falkirk's. We've won the U19 league for the past 4 seasons and we're on course for a 5th. Yet, Bollan never gave the many of the U19s a chance. I can see the reasoning behind the board's decision considering they put a lot of emphasis on youth development.

By 'emphasis', you mean 'money that we've never been able to afford'. I don't see why Livingston should be applauded for cheating.

I am simpy amazed they had the cash to sack him. Then again, Livingston have a track record of playing with monopoly money

Maybe Kenny Deuchar could be fast-tracked in to some kind of management role?

Gary Bollan was never on a contract that would need severed. He was on a rolling weekly contract.

I didn't think we even bothered with the U-19 leagues.

Hopefully it all ends in spectacular disaster.

This thread should be taken down. None of these anti-Livingston trolls have a fucking clue what they're talking about. Livingston make the news, and its a good opportunity for pie and bovril's resident trolls to come out and drag their knuckles across their keyboards.

Really bad decision by the board, FWIW.

Not really. After all, some teams didn't even make it to the Fifth Round. Must be embarrassing for them.

This made me chuckle...

Duffie, Wallace, Scobbie, J Fulton, D Fulton, Murdoch, Alston, Sibbald. Not to mention Dick, Turnbull, Millar, Graham and more that I can't think of off the top of my head

The only players in our squad not brought through our academy are; McGovern, Dodds, Bennett (on loan), Gibson, Weatherston, Millar and Farid.

If you're winning the U19's it's because most of our academy players play in our first team. Just sayin'

What do you mean thought!!!! The only post not trolling is the OP, afer that it went the usual way of things on P&B, full of shit and arseholes.

Aye, I didnt make that clear. I meant as in I thought the thread was set up by a troll making a crap joke and that Bollan hadn't been sacked. But I couldn't think of an obvious joke so went in the thread and saw it was for real. And that there was lots of trolling going on...

depends on your definition of trolling, I didnt say any of it was undeserved

[marty_j]

any truth in the rumour he was sacked in the car park?

[GordieBoy80]

So what would have happened if Bollan played loads of youngsters and Livi were to get absolutely hammered week in week out ?
