GinRummy Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 21 minutes ago, Cruickshank for Scotland said: How would their signing policy not suit us exactly? Imo any club with their budget requires a huge amount of luck for a signing to be successful. At the level they’re spending its only a matter of time until the gambles fail and they go down. leveins signings have left us in a mess but copying livi in any way is just a bit silly.

Shaggy2 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I’m quite confident but our record in BIG matches against the Midden is absolutely shocking. 1987 SCSF, 2010 LCSF, 2013 LCF and the league game we lost 2-0 in 2013/14 that would have taken us to within 3pts by the end of the first quarter after starting on -15. That last one was a huge boot in the baws and we never got close after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heartsofgold Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 11 hours ago, Cruickshank for Scotland said: Livingston are an example of a well run Club with a very limited fan base and financies - solid manager who knows the Scottish game and shrewd signings. Instead of cosying up to Hibs maybe Mrs Budge needs look to how Livingston are being run. You do realise that they are run by a gangster with a truly vicious reputation yes??

They have given a guy who was jailed a coaching role and I certainly do not condone that, however we also went down a similar route with a manager a few years ago.
