It's a travesty that Colin Stewart will be knocked out in the first round of the twitter polls. Definitely the most consistent clownshoes keeper I can remember.

:lol::lol::lol:

Plenty time for things to change but people probably voting for Ludo on the back of the goal he lost to secure our relegation.

To start with Bullock was needing a bungee rope tied to his waste anchored to one of the goal posts to keep him from running outside his box, but once he settled down he was a decent keeper for us though, good shot stopper and the best kicker since Broto,

Liam Kelly has been excellent for us this season but in League One he chucked 2 into his own net and the one this season against Sevco was also in that category.

Can't think of any redeeming features with Stewart, total bombscare of a keeper.

Cole has to be mentioned once we get to outfield players,  the Raith away game was prob the one he broke the camel's back with his selling goals pish defending.

I've got a vague memory of a keeper called El Had who came in on trial, played about 3 games for us and was utterly terrifying in each and every one of them. I think he attempted to tip the ball over the bar twice, and each time palmed it onto the bar and it bounced back into play and caused chaos. He never signed for us though - googles not turned anything up but I swear he existed.

Bullock wasn't that bad in the end, but had an atrocious start. Martini wasn't too awful either. Has to be Ludo Roy for putting the ball in the net off his face.

Holt talking about our upcoming game and the players who are close to returning from injuries, finishing off having a wee dig at the precious players complaining about our pitch. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/local-sport/livingston-boss-eyeing-only-three-14071370

He added: “We also have one or two niggles but that’s just part of football. Everyone is desperate to play, which speaks volumes about this club.

“If I asked folk to come and see me if they didn’t want to play then nobody would do it – that’s not always the case at other clubs.”

It's worth mentioning that some players are under doctors orders not to play on plastic. Steven MacLean for us, for instance, had a small tear in his knee that was exacerbated by the firmer artificial surface, and completely avoided injuries after stopping playing on it, while in seasons he had played on it, suffered injuries within weeks of games on it.

A lot of the shite about pitches should be ignored, but there are players with genuine issues with them.

Fair point. missing games when not injured, irrespective of the surface of the pitch, also serve as rest weeks and for older/prone players it can only help.

Could say the same thing for the length of the grass to be fair? :D

Ryan Hardie’s attitude has been noticeably different since the Christmas break. He wasn’t the reason we lost today but Erskine was fairly brutal up front on his own.

Our away form is a massive cause for concern, as well as our inability to see out the last 15 minutes of games. Today had an air of inevitability about it once the deluge came down.
