Had forgotten about that link between them, and partly forgot Howe was in about the job Possibly explains why Devlin captained the side recently. The club knew Guthrie wasn't going to be here and potentially Marv. Nailed on that Nicky is club captain next season. Yeah true, think I'd posted about that before but would definitely explain it. I'm completely fine with Devlin being captain, he has the right mentality at least. With potentially Guthrie, Bartley and more away it could explain why the arse fell out our season.

Been offered a coaching position at Celtic I'm hearing. Not sure that Celtic players need to be coached on how to fall over whenever an opposition player comes close to you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptn Hooch Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Pleased with that...wonder if one of the CBs from League 2 is Scott Cuthbert, plenty of experience and has played at Livi before 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Feels like a massive job to replace Guthrie and Bartley in one window, plus the loss of Lithgow from the club, but probably thought the same when the likes of Gallagher and Halkett left a few Summers ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptn Hooch Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Ooft, if we lose Guthrie and Marv then that makes the rebuilding job a lot harder than it looked like it would be on SaturdayIf we can get Diani in permanently then I'd say it's a long term upgrade on an ageing Bartley. Marv has been immense for us and will always be fondly remembered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guthrie definitely, Bartley however will just be like for like with Holt or even Obileye I think Any idea on how Bruce Anderson could do with us? Seems an exciting signing on the face of it Edited May 18, 2021 by ATLIS 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did very little for us but probably didn’t get much of a chance on the pitch. A bit like Shankland, maybe he needs to move to a team a little bit lower in the league and with smaller expectations. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martindale has basically been talking him up as a great finisher that we need to make chances for. Natural goal scorer who should be able to get a chunk of goals next season for sure 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLIS Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Hopefully in the next few months we see new deals for Sibbald, Hamilton, Devlin and Forrest. Would be a big thing to keep a core like that with us and not signing pre-contracts in January etc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghLivi Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) The Courier understands the club are pursuing a loan move for a goalkeeper and left-sided player from the English Premiership as well as a pair of centre-backs with several years of experience in English League Two whose contracts are coming to an end. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/local-sport/livingston-complete-signing-striker-bruce-24136262 Edited May 18, 2021 by EdinburghLivi 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I think getting Anderson for the JET will work out pretty well for you guys imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems an exciting signing on the face of it Probably depends how much he buys into your style. He'll likely be feeling about 12ft tall considering all thats happened (fee paid, number 9 shirt, long contract, manager praising him) so will surely go balls out to impress, which I think was an issue for him at Ayr. Honestly not a player I'd have thought was a "fit" for Livingston, but guess clubs have to evolve etc. in terms of figures he done a lot less defensively p90 than any striker at Livingston, a lot less aerial duels aswell. Possibly end up being a sort of Robinson replacement more than anything, just being a pest and trying to link play, rather the taking on defences on his own and that. Be interesting to see how it works out. Clearly something there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wrong Car Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I think Reilly fits more as a Robinson replacement, so I'd say Anderson provided a different option up front (for once!) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghLivi Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Anderson, Hamilton and Reilly should be 3 good, different options for us. Questions over whether Kouider-Aissa and Poplatnik will still be here if we're running with a 'reduced squad'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingKachloul Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Quite happy with the swap if im honest. JET on his day was very good, but that wasnt every week. I thought him playing changed how we played as a team. At 3 years Anderson has a bit of resale value too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
