Hear, hear!
On the whole it's been a very good season & to clinch it at the 1st attempt in the 5th last game by beating your nearest challenger is excellent.
Scott Pittman & Jacko Longridge were not who I expected to come up with the goals but shows we have more than just forwards scoring.
Well done lads, well done to the manager & coaching staff and well done to the folks behind the scenes who have financed the promotion push.
Champions again, here's hoping we build on it for next season and stay up with something to spare.

some start to the game today could have been 3 down in the the first ten minutes ,well done to the team for getting back into the game with d vita and longridge playing their best games that I've seen for a Wee while .The goal keeper and defence are my biggest worry for next season other than that I think we have a decent squad of players that'll do ok in the championship ...Thats the end of season for me as away for the next two home games so it's nice to go out on a winning streak ...mon the champions !!!

great to go back up, hate to think what would have happened if we didn't, some players will go and some will come in next season, lets play fringe players like Knox etc in the games left and assess them, Lithgow and Crighton are not bad defensively but are prone to just booting it anywhere when even not under pressure, we still need a big forward as Buchanan and Mullen are too wee, dont know if Kelly is going back to Rangers at end of season, if so we need a keeper, Neil Alexander is without a club having left Aberdeen could be worth a shout, squad not too bad to stay in Championship

I thought the team thoroughly deserved the victory yesterday (other than an indifferent first 10 mins) and their League Championship. It was great to see a few hundred more in the ground yesterday and I am looking forward to increasing the core support for next season and a good collection of new signings and re-signings for those who have not already been tied down for next season. It will be interesting to see what happens at the EGM but here's hoping that it is positive news for next season and beyond.
What do others think about our realistic potential. Is there scope in the short term to get our crowds up to the same sort of size as Morton, QOS and Raith or is that unrealistic?
All in all a great season and looking forward to finishing it off in style!!

Fantastic day all round, Beautiful weather and absolute screamer of an opening goal by Scott Pittman, not too shabby from Jackson Longridge for our second goal either. The atmosphere was great as well with the crowd filling the stand up a bit better than recent games. Well done to all our players and backroom staff for giving us Livi fans a fantastic season, lets keep it going and see how many points we can win the league by. Mon the Livi Lions.

In answer to Ewen's question
I think there is potential to get a decent sized support but it needs someone to professionally market the club.
Jim Leishman era saw a lot of simply getting the club shown in a positive light but it needs a larger than life figure talking us up and getting interest to rise rapidly.
