Livi need to take risks in must-win game at Alloa David Hopkin reckons Livingston have enough quality to beat the dropLivingston are hanging on for dear life in this season’s continuing fight against relegation from the Championship. A well-deserved point at Ibrox 13 days ago had brought some renewed optimism that Mark Burchill’s men could still kick off the new campaign in August with their Championship status intact. However, those dark clouds that have continued to hover over the Energy Assets Arena for the majority of the season made an unwelcome return last weekend as Dumbarton came from a goal down to snatch all three points with two strikes in the final ten minutes – a result that has left Livi perilously close to the drop – six points adrift of tomorrow’s opponents Alloa and Cowdenbeath with just seven matches left to play. Factor in a five-point deduction for defaulting on tax obligations in November as well as the departure of former manager John McGlynn just a month later, Livingston supporters have had little to cheer about in Scotland’s second tier this season. That said, performances on the park have been far too inconsistent for the club to be in a position to challenge elsewhere in the table with now less than a quarter of the season remaining. “It’s like anything else, for 80 minutes we were doing well but then make two mistakes and we’re punished, for it,” said assistant manager David Hopkin in light of last Saturday’s 2-1 reversal at home to Ian Murray’s visiting outfit. “We’ve watched the game over a couple of times and the two mistakes have just killed us. It wasn’t great on Monday morning when everyone was in reflecting on what happened. We would have been disappointed before last weekend’s match to only have taken a point so to take nothing was hugely deflating. But we’ve just got to get on with it.” Getting on with the job in hand they must however, with four of their seven matches to come against the league’s bit hitters in Hibs, Rangers, Falkirk and Queen of the South. www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/livingston/livi-need-to-take-risks-in-must-win-game-at-alloa-1-3730483

Tell us something we don't know pal. We have been watching this from the start of the season.

I am taking my grandson today as he wants to get right behind the Lions so he tells me.
What's the OAP price?

It's likely to be about a tenner for old codgers today. Do or die today then. Lose and it's all over bar the shouting.

Well, we didn't lose but it still looks all over bar the shouting....can't honestly see us getting any points other than possibly from Cowdenbeath & that ain't enough.

Not enough of our lads wanted it enough. And that coupled with the fact that overall we're just not good enough is what will see us relegated.
There's been too many of them guising through too many games for too long now. Time for a clear out.

How the referee never gave the foul on Mullen in the build up to their second is beyond me.

Well what was most obvious to us was the lack of urgency in the way we played all afternoon. The fans were great and tried to encourage from the kick off but again it was a mostly frustrating match that we were the better team but just thought we could sail through it. But we're not down yet and it would help if the players showed more determination to keep us up!
