How good/potentials are we talking? positions/playstlye? Halkett easily the best CB in the Championship by some way, absolutely solid defender who rarely makes mistakes and chips in with goals. Joint top for us now I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Byrne came from Dunfermline and has been part of a very good midfield 2/3 with Pittman and Jacobs, not sure he's good enough for Premiership though, he's a good Championship player but might be a risk signing him for a level above. Both are too good to be playing with us for much longer though, same with Pittman, hoping we can hold onto them for the rest of the season, and hopefully the talk of us offering them 2 year deal extensions are true, and that they sign them. You say both are to good for Livingston but not sure there good enough for premiership , what level would they go to next? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given our wage cap is roughly 500pw I doubt we're living outwith our means If Partick Thistle offered these players contracts and who have the new £6 million training complex being built from the money from the Weirs (who have guaranteed it regardless of whether Thistle are relegated or not) and they choose to stay with Livingston, I would think its likely they would be on a lot more than £500 per week? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said i'm not sure Byrne is good enough for Premiership, Halkett is, he's coasting it at this level. I know you rate Byrne highly, prob higher than Pittman, so you wont agree with me, I like him too and think he's been excellent at Livi, i'm just not sure he could step up a level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joint top for us now I think. He might be the best CB in the Championship, he's certainly up there and I agree he would be a good signing for a Premiership club. I think it's stretching it a bit to suggest he's "easily" the best though. I'd take Halkett in a heart beat given a chance. Not seen enough of Byrne. He had a really good game at Palmerston at the end of November though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t rate him higher than pittman I think they both do really un selfish work for the team and both good footballers. Both excellent. halkett will be at least a premiership player next season I couldn’t agree more 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLIS Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I'm honestly fairly embarrassed for the club and players, it wasn't that long ago that they all shelled out to buy a drum to create atmosphere during the games. It's still sitting behind the reception having never been picked up, I'd completely forgot about it until I had to ask. Anyone fancy picking it up? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayia Napa Daz Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Wasn't at Oswestry fella. Banned from all grounds in England and Wales. Threw a deck chair at a Russian at euro 2016 and caused criminal damage to a bar in Marseille. Took the matter to court but it was upheld. Should've gone to Oswestry anyway, absolutely hate the Welsh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Didn't play but the result between Falkirk v QoS went our way. 3 points clear of Dunfermline & QoS with a game in hand, and 3 points clear of Morton too. Still 3rd in the league. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andylivi1 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Tuesdays game against Inverness has the makings of a big game for both clubs, Inverness win they’ll fancy making the playoffs, we win we put distance between us and them. Sad that we can’t take a bus to the game, hopefully a few make it up in cars. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big boots to fill, but I have confidence in Hoppy to bring in 1 or 2 to replace the ones departing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
