LIVIFOREVER Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Just now, wee_bairn said: Great read guys; it's very refreshing to visit a clubs thread without the constant trolling. Every club in Scotland are selling clubs unfortunately. As mentioned previously, letting players go for the right price makes the club far more attractive for future signings. Ideally you want to attract players who have the potential to be at a lot higher level in the game than where you are and you just need to enjoy the talent on show at the time. Don't feel Carrick comes under this bracket, he won't be missed and is replaceable. Good luck to Buchanan - great move for him to stay full time and play 1st team football. You've said it now. We've had our fair share of trolling on this thread, esp going through 2 admins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLIS Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) Heard a rumour about Bobby Barr coming back, he tweeted a few days ago something along the lines of "Livi Days" with a pic of him in a Livi top. Probably where the rumour came from tbh. Derek Lyle could be an option for a 6 month deal if he's actually being freed, not one for the future but is guaranteed a good couple of goals and can definitely finish which has been one of our biggest issues Edited January 12, 2018 by ATLIS 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how much is in that though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afro Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Josh Mullin is twice the player Bobby Barr ever was. Blew too hot and cold, was nigh-on unplayable on his day mind you, and had a real penchant for tweeting shite about that club from Govan (each to their own).Telling John Hughes to get fucked was probably one of his highlights. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Josh Mullin is a better player, that’s why he’s had interest from premiership clubs and Barr is playing in League 1, but going back to realism, Bobby Barr is exactly the type of player we have to go for, a player in the league below that has potential to do us a decent turn for a season or two and won’t be on a lot of money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately Barr has had a number of shots at the championship and failed to really impress on any of them in my opinion. With all due respect to Bobby; League 1 is his level now. If we were stuck in the position of going for an explayer I'd rather go for someone like Danny Denholm; least-ways you know what you're going to get. On Carrick I think it had become increasingly obvious over the last twelve months that he wasn't really an out-and-out striker. Cant really complain about his work rate or the fact that he played half a game with a hand broken in several places rather than be substituted but it is pretty obvioiud that he is an attacking midfield at best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Has it occurred to you that the players themselves don't want to be tied down on a long contract to Livingston? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitburn Vale Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 (edited) Derek Lyle would be a good shout at least until the end of the season,a good striker is all we're needing now unless we lose any more players over this transfer window.

LIVIFOREVER Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Bobby Barr split opinions, I always liked him and thought he improved with us, his crossing ins't anywhere near the standard of Mullin's but he can take players on and get past them better and when he cut inside he always became a goal threat. Ripped Falkirk and Raith to bit quite a few times for us and linked up well with Keaghan when we hit teams on the counter. Would hate to lose Josh but Bobby would be a decent replacement to soften the blow. Would give us a pacey winger anyway, and a good option from te bench when players are tired. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andylivi1 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I think a big indication is we played Keaghan out of position on the right today and he struggled but we stuck with him while Mullin remained on the bench for 90 minutes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just about to ask why Mullin hasn't had a game for us recently. Is he struggling with injury? Fallen out with Hoppy? I saw on Twitter he was in Budapest on Monday (might have been an old tweet mind you). Has he maybe signed a pre contract with another club and waiting for it to be resolved so he doesn't get injured?Very strange state of affairs tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't signing a contract so the club want to sell him, it's just so that he doesn't get injured during the window. Just money probably + wants to go to a higher level 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s in the situation that Danny Mullen was, he’s indicated he isn’t going to sign a new contract so we have made him available to other teams, obviously we don’t want him to get injured so we can get something for him this month. Wouldnt surprise me if he’s the other midfielder St Mirren are signing. Only time will tell though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livilion28 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I don’t think it was a game for Mullin today , it was a game for rolling the sleeves up and battling that’s not one of josh best qualities 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I'd get Robinson's contract extended if we can too, that's him on 5 goals this season and he's hardly played with him being our injured. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That tells me everything I need to know. He’ll be away this transfer window, Id be surprised if he wasn’t that’s for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livilion28 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 It was a game for players to roll sleeves up and I don’t think josh suits that type of play , he will probably play next week in cup. I hope he doesn’t leave , along with Halkett pittman and Byrne but josh hasn’t been playing that well for last 3-4 weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don’t see a player that doesn’t roll his sleeves up, Josh has been a player that’s played right wing back all season, a position that you have to get up and down the pitch, if anything he is one of the harder working players in the team, imo anyway. He hasn’t played well in recent weeks, you are right, perhaps his heart isn’t quite in it anymore and he wants to get something else sorted ? I hope he stays but everything points to him leaving, for the same reasons as Danny Mullen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I see what both of you are saying, I think LL is meaning more of a battling performance than hard working though, there's a difference between effort/graft and getting stuck in scrapping for the ball. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
