buchan30 Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 really hope it isn’t livingston. A major refurbishment of the bridge that carries the eastbound slip road off the M8 at Junction 3 near Livingston over the A899 is planned to start early in 2023 for six months. The reinforced concrete structure, which was originally built in 1970, will benefit from a £1.3m upgrade in line with modern standards, ensuring its long-term use and safety for motorists. The nature of the works means the slip road will be closed from mid-February for approximately five months. Clearly signed diversion routes will maintain access to Livingston from the M8 coming from the west and underline that the town is very much open for business. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really think the Glasgow based authorities will give a flying f**k about that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The diversion into Livi from the M8 only adds 15 minutes to your drive. It’s still completely accessible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roverthemoon Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Think it’s going to be Livingston. Probably the most sense distance wise and probably cheaper than The Falkirk Stadium. Don’t think there’s a decent option tbh. As long as it’s not Airdrie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Livi wouldn't be the end of the world. I'm sure there's a Brewers Fayre just at the top of the ground and the shopping centre which has a Wetherspoons isn't too far away either. When you compare it to Airdrie where pubs were in the middle of nowhere and the OF on that day it probably spoilt a decent pre match swalley. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can walk from the town centre pubs to the ground in Airdrie in about fifteen minutes. Night and day compared to a Wetherspoons in a shopping centre. The Old Firm situation was unfortunate. Just a Scotland match on the Saturday to contend with this time. Really is incredible how badly the SPFL manage this tournament. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotland game is day before cup final however a dear weekend for folk that want to do both. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won’t need subtitles… you can hear a lot of it in the highlights which should be done around lunchtime as it is using the BBC footage without commentary.

Sweaty Morph Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Big fan of Thomson's psyching out routine, I was helpless at him. "Ooh, that's a big run up"! Brilliant. Simple things and all that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohnononowheredidRossgo Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 "I've seen them all" - hahaha top shithousing by Thommo. Putting it out there I like Akio. Is he the finished article? No. He sometimes looks completely lost. However, he's got a work-rate, bit of physicality and can run. Scored a great poachers goal and nearly had a 2nd at the end. Miles ahead of the big joker we had as backup as well as Connell. He'll do for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roverthemoon Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Like what I’ve seen of Akio so far. Loan players are never going to be the finished article - that’s why they’ve been put out on loan - but he definitely offers us something new going forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Akio did us a real turn against Arbroath on Saturday but last night he looked absolutely lost until he scored. He was vastly improved afterwards. I'm not sure I would want to rely on him as a regular starter but I think he could be a reasonable option off the bench. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All at sea until he scored, conceding possession with nearly every touch and losing every challenge. Afterwards, looked a different player. I was harsh on him, about 30s before the goal but happy to say I was maybe too hasty. Look forward to seeing what he can bring us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
