Folk couldn't write fiction as good as this. Saints and Dunfermline better be worried though as he's already making his list for next season and has seen a good player at each club.

I also reckon we should just end the league at New Year if Livi are in contention as according to Walter Landi. "Believe me, if we arrive at January 1 when the window opens in the first two or three positions, just two or three points behind the top position, then I will win the league, that is for sure."

That's without even getting started on how he was a front runner for the Fulham job.

You'd think after the Champions League rubbish, someone would have a quiet word with the bloke.

Talking a good game

He talks pish just ignore it

Well, we'll see Radford. It can't hurt to have a bit of confidence but with St. Johnstone, in my opinion, having the best squad by some distance and already being ahead, this is the sort of comment that may come back to bite him on the arse.

It was a good victory yesterday against, what I thought were, a good team but this sort of talk should really only come after we're beating title contenders. If we had beaten you two weeks ago then I would have seen no problem with it. I'm still confident if we can get some decent depth in January and keep our key players fit then we can challenge and obviously Landi thinks so as well.

Edit:- I actually missed a few gems in there.

"I see one good player from St Johnstone here, another good player from Dunfermline there," he said. "I am already making my list for next season."

"I don't like Mourinho because he talks too much."

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiice.

What a tart.

"Then, honestly, one week ago, I received an offer from a Championship team, a team which has a manager who started off winning but then results have not been so good," he said.

Honestly? Why honestly? I mean what ever could make us doubt your credentials for taking on a Championship post, Roberto? I mean after all YOU ARE THE MAN.

Roberto Landi shakes the hands of disabled fans before the game, so he can't be criticised.

He obviously lives in his own little world...The Landi Make Believe.

Brilliant, kudos

It looks like Roberto has been kicking the arse out of the Grappa.

Livvy are the best footballing side in the league.

I'm always wary of managers who make a conscious effort to do things like this. It's like they're trying to give themselves immunity from criticism when they go on to be complete and utter arseholes.

You know, people like Landi.

We have our own mini-Mourinho here I love it. And before you start, no, I'm not comparing their managerial skills.

It's our depth that's screwed with us so far. By the time the transfer window closes, we'll be a much stronger team than we are now. And I believe him when he says we'll be the team to beat in the 2nd half of the season.

Start running, Landi's coming.

Nothing to worry about for those who can't run, he only wants to shake your hand

Apart from Proctor, I'd rather have Landi than any of the other bawbags we've had in the last few years, i.e Preston, Lambert, Guff, Robbo et al.

are you scared?

I

PETRIFIED!!!!!

Walter Mitty in the fuckin' house!

we shall see...

I can't believe I didn't read the article in full earlier. I've been in need of a good laugh all day. This is my favourite bit:





Comedy gold!

There's nothing worse in life, than a manager shaking a disabled man/woman's hand. Truly disgusting.

im not going to get into an arguement but i would wait to see how the window unfolds if i were you

I thought they opened and closed. Never mind.

Perhaps you'd like to answer the following question which I asked in another thread where Livi's January signings were mentioned:

i dont know if the debts have been paid as im not involved with any of the people owed money but given that the perpetual talking about it by those involved seems to have stopped im guessing that they have/negotiations are making positive progress.

again im not sure but given that the manager has said that should we still be in the hunt at xmas we will be bringing in players i have no reason to doubt that we wouldnt

as to elliot there was a bit in the paper the other day that said hearts are calling up all their young strikers again and he hasn't been contacted so he felt it'd be best for everyone if he stayed at livi, http://www.livingstonfc.co.uk/newsdet.php?...6&type_id=1

On yesterday's performance Livi have sweet f**k all chance of winning anything...
Landi is being an arsepiece.

I'd also assume negotiations are going well. I mean, I'm sure the SFL, not to mention the club's creditors, would take a dim view of any January 'spending sprees' if the club hasn't paid what is due.

Your manager might be suggesting fresh players will be brought in during the window, but where's the guarantee? He seems overly fond of opening his mouth and letting his belly rumble.

As for Elliot, Livi can't simply keep him. He's signed until January when he'll have to return to his parent club. I can't imagine Hearts will let him leave for nothing and he's bound to attract the attention of far more attractive options than Livingston if his scoring streak continues.

Roberto reflects on Morton

I must say, I'm rather disappointed.

Sick Dude, Sick!

He's a walking joke of a man.

Hilarious.

other than games against Morton.

Well Landi is nothing if not entertaining. If we were rooted to the bottom of the league I would certainly be a little bit miffed with the level of his chat. But right now we are achieving far more than I thought we would so he can claim to be a better manager than Alex Ferguson for all I care.

Love to see them do transfer dealings from a frozen bank account.

...or an empty bank account.

Shoosh: we're a very strong team who play good football and have a good manager. Which begs the question why the feck are we bottom in both reality and Roberto Landiland, but I digress...

Landi is a nice guy, I can personally vouch for that, but he doesn't half talk some shite.

Between him and Comical Angelo we've got a double act which rivals Pearse for hot air and soundbites.

Yeh, wasn't impressed with Livi at all on Saturday, until Griffiths came on.
BTW, I said hello to you on Saturday and you ignored me.

Where? When?

As this thread has gone on for some time now, I’d like to confirm that for a number of Dundee supporters the title has now evolved from The Roberto Landi Diaries into the The Roberto Landi Derries.

Wasn't impressed with either team in the first half, Sparky coming on made a big difference, as does McPake in defence, seems if either is missing we struggle, although we managed for the most part with Elliot coming in.

Landi is a tad eccentric but i like his passion for the game and seems a genuine guy, he's doing a good job so far anyway, so i'm not complaining.

Why?

I think he was being sarcastic, if not, i've no idea.

I knew I could rely on you.

Davie Irons comments on the game.

I really shouldn't take the light away from Landi but you could certainly scrutinize a few of Irons' comments.

"We restricted Livingston to virtually nothing up until the goal and then maybe in the last 10 minutes when we’ve tried to force it, Kevin Cuthbert kept us in the game."

My arse you did.

Morton v Livi thread for this pish. Leave us to laugh at Landi in peace, cock snot.

Must buy his dope off Ivan Golac.

Cock snot? Poor show, my man.

It was merely a comparison between the two managers' comments and to show that Landi can be a good sportsman and not make silly comments. Perhaps his exuberance is over-powering for some at times but why not if he can keep up the results? Of course the champions league comment was getting carried away with things but despite that, I think he has every right to be the way he is at this moment in time.

This is better than I thought we were going to be at this point in time, perhaps Landi (in his mind) felt the same way?

There's a slight difference between saying you contained Livi for the majority of a game and saying that your going to lead a First Division team, crippled by debt, to the SPL and the UEFA Cup while also claiming you could teach Gordon Strachan a thing or two about managing a team in the Champions League.

I'm not really sure what you're trying to achieve with your Irons comparison, but, as the saying goes on here, it's an epic fail.

Slightly off topic but how is Cuthbert playing for you guys?

"It was merely a comparison between the two managers' comments and to show that Landi can be a good sportsman and not make silly comments."

Yes, I didn't deney there was a difference in this case but there's still points being made by some people that he is a complete arse. As proved by myself, he can tone it down at times. The Davie Irons comments were mainly to show that any manager can be biased and blinkered at times. I'm referring more to the Clyde comments than anything else.

I have to admit I'm not his biggest fan, but I'd say he's doing alright and had a few great saves on Saturday late on. I'm not convinced with his ability at crossing situations but hes certainly an imporvement on what we 'had'.



Nonsense. You hit the bar a minute or two before scoring the goal. Before that you barely had a significant attempt on goal. You were contained for the vast majority of the game. You're being picky over a minor issue of semantics.
