Livvy v Accies Saturday 25 January

What chance of this being on, and if so, weather is bound to affect play?.

Almondvale is a soulless place at best of times, and a very low crowd anticipated, even if the game is on.

Probably a postponement is the best result, IMO.

Weather's to be back to normal well before kick off time. Could be a pleasant day...before the match starts anyway!

A few grounds been damaged but not seen anything about the spaghettihad. They have sent Andy Winter to Arbroath so don't need to worry about him coming back to bite us. Only Smithy and Stevie May.

They’ve worked out the bleak mid Winter.

Really poor again.

We were owed a decent performance after last week, we never got it. I didn’t expect a win today, but a big improvement from struggling to beat what was pretty much a junior team last week was expected.

We set up defensive and lasted 3 minutes before we gave muirhead loads of space inside the box and he put it across Albindon into the top corner. Hoe he got so much space with us having 5 defenders is criminal. From then we never were going to get anything from the game.

I don’t think we had a shot first half although we should have had a penalty when the Livi defender clearly handled the ball on the ground. No idea how the linesman on our side missed it.

A poor set up, no urgency, no fight, punts up the park for Oli to chase. Only positive I can find today is airdrie unexpectedly beating Dunfermline so they haven’t overtaken us. This is a tough week for us playing Raith on Tuesday then Ayr on Saturday. I don’t think we will take any points from these seven days.

Very disappointing today. Livi scored two good goals, but we must do better.

Rankin continues to play certain favorites who don't perform. The midfield has not creativity. I would always play Martin, but I think Smith, Barjonas and Maguire all struggle. None of them are playmakers hence we create nothing. We need to be more positive and creative in the middle of the park. They just seem like 3 players with no confidence. Can we buy a creative midfielder please!!!

On the small positive Laime looked like a good signing…

I made a post on X when I saw the team about no creativity. If I can see that why can't Rankin? What has Bradley done wrong? Barely seen since his two goals and excellent performance against Queen's Park. Barjonas preferred again to Henderson. Make it make sense!

I agree the lack of creativity is a big problem….if you play wide players you make create some space in the middle, but I think we need width and a new creative midfielder….. but playing narrow with smith, barjonas and maguire does not work…. Remember he even used to play Ben Williamson and he was still the same narrow and not creative enough……

Please give us some creativity.. we have some width player and we have a top striker… lets play football
