Livingston v Hearts

**Zizou** · 03-30-2026, 09:54 AM

Thank fuck we can start looking to the real stuff again jjay

This is going to be a huge weekend (I know they all are). We are more than likely going to start this game in second place for the first time in about 6 months. Big test of character but with about 7k going through and a full squad to choose from (other than Milne if rumours are true) then I'm very confident of a good win.

Think this could be the weekend Celtic drop right out too.

Schwollow

McEntee - Halkett - McCart - Milne

Altena - Devlin - Leonard - Kyzi

Braga - Shankland

Would be happy with that. 3-0 Hertz.

This is probably our last chance to go hammer a team and get our GD up a bit.

Livi games never seem to go like that (unless they’re pumping us amirite) but I do keep thinking with how tight the league has been it would be the absolute worst way to lose it if it went on GD Laugh

Also feeling a bit like Killie this is one you expect to go win easily Eek

Haven't seen Hertz win since the league cup games at the start of the season, iirc, so stick this down as a 0-0 or a 0-1 defeat. Robbie Aye

Our away form has been fucking rotten of late, so would be really nice to get the W.

Absolutely not a game I expect us to go and win easily.

Onboard with this other than Findlay? Isn't he back?

I also think we need 3 CMFs. So happy with the front six but would suggest Altena, Devlin and Leonard 3 CMFs. With a front 3 but means Braga RW, Shanks CF, Kyzi LW. We need the old high press and a front 3 making sure they get no peace for playing out.

Not sure if Mags is back but already thinking he's the 60mins sub on super sub. His running and goal threat at some point needs to be accommodated. Plus Livi away is one of those typical games we lose or draw by being out muscled. He gets stuck in.

We do need to get the GD up but just any win does at this point to keep us powering on.

Hope Shanks starts. That pitch though…

Probably said this 3 times now, but we need the players to treat every game like a cup final.
None of the limp pish that we've seen too many times for my liking.
None more relying on subs 70 mins in.

**CritchSmile** · 03-30-2026, 09:07 PM

We also need a bit of composure and cool heads though. No one wins 7 cup finals in a row. Trying to get yourself into that mental state each time is impossible.

I want to see some measured play from our team, control some games for once and conserve some energy for the big ones against rangers, Celtic and the derby.

~~King Kebab~~ · 03-30-2026, 09:37 PM

Can we at least do it for livi?
Our form after a break is absolutely dreadful.
They looked to be doomed, by while it's not impossible, they'll be fighting like fuck.

BoJack Horseman · 03-31-2026, 10:17 AM

It’s going to be an extremely hard-fought game for us, compounded with our old friends Kevin Clancy and Don Robertson involved in officiating.

It’s a right pain in the arse that Islam is away playing friendlies against Namibia and Comoros. Could have come in as a real option for the next couple games if he’d had two weeks training with Shankland, instead he won’t be there until at least Thursday if not Friday.

Lizzie Brice Is a decent boozer. It's roundabout the stadium.

Just googled my joke and apparently it is/was a pub. Warnock

Herman Boyce · 03-31-2026, 02:57 PM

Livi have put out something saying we’ve sold out 3 stands and they’ve banned online sales for the “home” end. Big time GodIsGod

It's slim pickings. There's a Wetherspoons and a couple of boozers at the shopping centre.

Pub down the far end is glorious. You enter at the other end and it's all mechanical sculptures and massive high end shops. But it gets narrower and shallower and mankier as you go until it's a pokey wee lane with nothing but vape shops, bookies and a boozer.

Just going to peeve in Gorgie then head though for kick off then back there after it.

Not spending more time in Livi than necessary.

Check this guy pretending to be of a higher class.
There are areas of Livingston that are a lot nicer than Gorgie, bud.

P.s I don't stay in Livi.
