Surviving was quite rightly our aim at the start of the season (as it will be next season) but now we're in a great position, we should be getting behind the team as much as possible to try and challenge the top six. We know the players will put the effort in; the fans need to do the same. It wouldnt be great but it would get the job done. Yes we are in a great position, and I’m not saying we should rest on our laurels but teams will have started to work us out and be prepared for how we will approach games so as much as I think we can still push on and do well it also wouldn’t surprise me if we struggled a little more in the second half of the league campaign. That wont dampen my spirits at the end of the season though, if we stay up regardless of our form it’s an amazing achievement for a team that’s about a mid table championship side in terms of budget. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough once per game but 3 times in succession is very poor. Thought big Menga did pretty well roughing them up a bit, had a decent shot saved as well. Preferred Lamie for Wylde, looks better defensively. Certainly evidence of rustiness. Yeah I like Menga's rough housing style of play but I just wish he'd look up now and again and play a decent final ball. Wylde had 3 players running off him looking for a pass that would have any one of them in on goal but he had his head down going for goal himself and ended up trundling the ball straight at their keeper from 20 odd yards out, maybe he was trying a bit too hard to get a goal and make a good impression, hopefully he'll settle down and be a team player. Disappointing to be out of the cup but it was always favouring the team with the home advantage, both of us have good home forms. Pity we couldn't have taken them to a replay cause we'd have won at home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptn Hooch Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 I agree, this January transfer window seems to have really got the better of some Livi fans. A lot of painful stuff to read on here and on twitter over the last 6 weeks or so. Menga has very little service and gave us an opening a couple of times. Wylde was absolutely nowhere near as bad as some folk making out. Would be interested to know if some of these Livi fans have ever played football. Shout out to Pittman. Our best player today and the only player who offered any real excitement or urgency on the ball. BBC coverage absolutely abysmal. I was a bit underwhelmed by Pittman today...thought his passing was the poorest it's been in a livi shirt....thought Halkett and Gallagher were our best players today 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLIS Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Worth pointing out as well that some of our fans were arseholes on the day too. Had to pull one one guy up for snapping seats at the end of the game and singing about the IRA ffs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the f**k is someone singing IRA songs at a Livi/Hearts game? Good on you for telling them where to go with that attitude.

LIVIFOREVER Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I doubt he was a Livi fan then, that shite has nothing to do with us, always get some Hibees going to our games against Hearts. Wont all be Livi fans in our end next Sunday against Sevco either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good on you for pulling them up, don’t need those sort of people within our support. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works hard, will do a shift and can play in numerous positions, he won’t get you many goals but he’s a good player to play off if that’s what you’re looking for. I actually thought he had some of his best games for us playing centre back which is what I mean by numerous positions, striker, centre back and played as a right back in one game too. I was always worried he was going to get sent off, really clumsy player and looks like he doesn’t know what he’s doing...as I say though, will give everything, a championship player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got yourself a good one guys, he’s really unlucky not to have got more game time with us, when he has played he’s been very solid. Still a young lad, think he’s only 21 but he’s very athletic, strong and can get up and down the wing really well. Can also play centre back if you are struggling but he’s primarily a right back. Hope he does well, I really like him, think he has a lot of potential. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LogieLivi Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 We have signed Jack McMillan from you guys today..... good signing?Solid defensively and in attack. Needs game time and he'll hopefully get it with you guys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiviLion Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Been impressed any time I've seen Jack, important for him to get game time though and the Championship will be a good level for him to get some experience. Hopefully doesn't suffer from going to a team doing so poorly and instead gets some good reviews when he comes back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdinburghLivi Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 That's a good signing for Thistle, I'm surprised Falkirk weren't in for him. I would have kept him for cover personally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thruthenight Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Yeah, I'm surprised we've let him go. He's the best defensive minded RWB we have, although tbf Lawless has made the position his own. If Lawless gets injured though, we might regret that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I'd have McMillan and Lamie in a back 4 but we predominantly play a back 3 and Jack doesn't get much game time. Certainly can cut it at our level but suppose it is much like the Hardie situation at Sevco and it would be selfish of us to keep him as a utility player when he can be getting much more game time at Partick Thistle. Great signing for them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIVIFOREVER Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I'd like to see some corner practice, like getting the ball above chest height so you clear the first defender. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghLivi Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Said it in the match thread but I think that corner of Tynecastle made inswinging corners difficult. Short run-up and cables running along the ground. Our corners have generally been pretty good this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
