Stuart McCall wary of LivingstonStuart McCall is ready to face in-from Livingston on Wednesday night and expects a very different game to their last encounter, as he explained to the club's official website. The match against Livingston in March was McCall’s first game in charge and finished in a surprising 1-1 draw, after Rangers had come flying out the traps in the first 15 minutes. Livingston have had a recent turn around in form after suffering nine games without a win, only drawing three of those games, and have now won their last three matches in all competitions. McCall has kept a keen eye on the bottom-place side of late and knows the motivation behind their performance is to keep their jobs next season, with the Lions ready to take three points from the Gers, who have struggled away from home this campaign. McCall explained to Rangers' official website that he is expecting this to be one of the team's toughest games going into the end of the season and is ready for a very different match to the one last time out. “It will be a different game than my first in charge, we were excellent for 15 minutes then ran out of steam and they did incredibly well,” he said. "In the time since then I have seen a lot of them, certainly in the last couple of weeks they’ve won three on the bounce and been full of spirit and have shown they have a lot to play for.” He continued: "I expect this to be one of our toughest games between now and the end of the season." At least a point against the Scottish Championship strugglers would be enough to take Rangers above Hibernian, but regardless of their current form the Light Blues will be expected to return to Glasgow with three points to their name. Livingston are in desperate need of a win and could push Rangers all the way if they fail to score a couple of goals early on, with a repeat of the 1-1 draw not beyond the realms of possibility. hereisthecity.com/en-gb/2015/04/13/stuart-mccall-wary-of-livingston/page/1/

Snap at them! Chase them! Close them down! Don't ball watch - ball win! Think better - be better!

Good to see an upbeat piece about Livi's chances in today's Scotsman. Feels like the first time in ages that we're getting some positive press.

We fully deserved that! Nerves take over a wee bit but when big fat baldie Boyd is their last throw of the dice then we should have known we had at least a point.
Pittman, Gallacher, Dycey and Hippo were stand outs for me but everyone played there part tonight. Well done lads.
Let's turn the Hibs over next week!

We fully deserved more than that! Nothing wrong with the disallowed goal that I could see & a decent shout for a pen after Gallagher was fouled & it broke to Pitman in the box as it looked like he was fouled too. Thought he'd give them the pen when Vuckic dived, it was one of the few decisions this latest excuse for a referee got right.

I have just been talking to someone who knows Greg Aitken well through a work connection. He says Aitken never hid his love of Rangers.

What in the world was DJ doing for the equaliser? Very poor attempt at saving it.

Quite simply awful refereeing to disallow the goal & to fail to send off Vukcic for the elbow on JT....and awful goalkeeping from DJ for the equaliser.
Lucky escape when they hit the post.
Still looks like a foul on Big Dec at then end of his long run & a possible pen when Scotty goes down shortly after.

They were talking points. It's not hysteria at all just creating some discussion. The pic shows the boy White caught him so that's that then. Until that post I hadn't seen that pic & would have beloved it was a goal all week long. Calm down now and lets pump the Hubs on Wednesday night #COLTS |

Calm down now and lets pump the Hubs on Wednesday night #COLTS Ha ha, fair enough. Ijust was surprised about the things on facebook that looked like the club was attempting to whip up bad feeling and it kind of backfired on them. I don't even know what it is but if it helps us turn over Hibs then #COLTS it is.  |

I don't think that photo proves anything other than White jumped for the ball & the keeper caught it.....we all know he dropped it after he landed on the ground. As I look at the photo I see White's arm is up but I cannot conclude that he hit the keeper anymore than I can conclude that the keeper jumped into White. From what I see of the video evidence, there was no foul on the keeper by White. There was a trip on Gallagher who attempted to carry on & fell to the ground; had he gone down as soon as the contact happened he may have won the free kick. I wasn't 100% convinced that Pitman was fouled on the day but it looked a possibility from my angle, I believe from the video evidence that penalties have been given for less. |

When's your dog and stick getting delivered? Actually I disagree - when I saw it live I thought there was clear space between white and their goalkeeper; having watched the highlights it appears that their number 24 was more responsible for the goalkeeper dropping the ball than anything that White did. The elbow incident I had wondered about it being a yellow but having watched the highlights again it looks like Vickic definitely was aware that Talbot was there, he turns his head momentarily, before elbowing him twice - straight red if it had been the other way around. The Gallagher incident; he was certainly taken out and it was a free kick ; no question - for the subsequent Pittman incident I'm afraid that their defender got the ball before connecting with Pittman hence no penalty. |

When's your dog and stick getting delivered? After yours I would suggest. The still photo proves nothing & the video suggests you are wrong. |
