John Lambies Doos Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Fookin fantastic thats how this feels. Finally off the field after so many years of financial fuckwhittery we started to get things right,we get relegated to league 1 then bang everthing starts to fall into place!! After winning league 1,i hoped for mid table survival this season but this team kept going like a machine and on one of the lowest budgets in the championship!! These players deserve a shot at the premiership and whatever happens there,this season will live long in the memory!! Never knew you supported them, you're a decent poster. Enjoy mate 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitburn Vale Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 (edited) Av been a whitburn lad aw ma life ma man,spent time with mr.lambie too at a Scotland v Belgium game back in 2000. Supported Livi as soon as they moved to West Lothian,in a county of junior teams it was great to go and watch senior fitba. The "Vale" connection comes from many trips in my early years up to Whitehills near Banff on holiday,went to see Deveronvale on many an occasion and still do. Same to yerself JLD,i wish you guys all the very best next season Edited May 20, 2018 by Whitburn Vale 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudolph Hucker Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Congratulations to Livi and to David Hopkin -superb achievement. Cruising through League One to win it with games to spare last season, then finishing above 8 teams in the Championship, then beating Thistle to get to the top division. Three different seasons, three different divisions. #upward trajectory . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afro Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I don’t think it’s quite sunk in for me yet, but I’ll remember this day forever. Makes going up and down the country watching us getting pumped by Peterhead and Stranraer seem all the more worth it now. I would’ve quite happily have seen Hopkin punted after our relegation two years ago, but he deserves all the credit and praise that’s coming his way for turning this team and indeed, the entire club, around. Regardless of where he ends up, he’s got my respect and I wish him all the very best. I’m probably a tad biased but when you weigh up where we were when he became manager, the players he’s had to work with and the budget available to him, this is up there with some of the greatest achievements in the modern Scottish game. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 What a day, what a team, what a support, everything was just perfect. Took me back to our CIS cup final win, it had the same vibe to it, and once Keaghan scored I just couldn't see us losing, even had a feeling Neil was going to save the pen, nothing was getting past him to spoil our day, absolutely buzzing still. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It worked out best for us him leaving, he was superb last season but not sure him and Mullen would've taken us up this season, Miller and Hardie coming in on the Jan transfer window wouldn't have happened and those two were a huge part of us getting 2nd place. Playing 6 play off game may have been too much too, we were down to the bare bones after 3 games with injuries and knocks, so having the advantage of being 2nd and coming in at the semi's def helped too. Hoppy sold Mullen to St Mirren because he had ran his course with us and wasn't progressing any further, brilliant move selling him to release funds to bring in Hardie and Miller. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orco Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Following Livi is a rollercoaster ride. In the last few years we've hit rock bottom with administrations and relegations, dodgy owners, court cases and points deductions. This double promotion means the world to those of us that have stuck with them home and away through thick and thin. If it all goes pear shaped next season we will not be phased. We just start again. Mon the Livi! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Not really into all this wellwishing of other teams tbh, but fwiw, whenever you play either cheek of the arse, I hope your "physical" style becomes outright thuggery and results in many casualties 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coventry Saint Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Congratulations guys. Hopkin has turned you into a strong, effective side who are an absolute bitch to play against. At this precise moment in time (albeit with a long transfer window to come) I think you are geared up better to survive in the top flight than us. Wonder if Hopkin will hang around for the challenge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demented Zebra Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 (edited) Well done lads brilliant job done I agree Hopkins should have got manager of the year to come up then win promotion is incredible.

LiviLion Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Didn't sound like Hopkin is in a rush to leave on the Sportscene highlights, talking about next season's squad and sitting down with the board on Tuesday. I fucking love that man. Hopefully get as much of this squad signed up now that we know where we'll be, and looking forward to the kind of players we'll bring in. Massive hammer throwing cluggers please. Still hasn't properly sunk in. See you in the Premiership forum. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
