With Livingston now being relegated it raised a few questions between myself and my mates last night ,
(i) Have they anyone decent we could take on ? We thought Matthew Knox & Jordan White
(ii) Will they go into administration and slip further down the leagues.
(iii) Would Hearts or Edinburgh City(if promoted) end up using /sharing their stadium
Wouldn't mind hearing your opinions

Cant see Edinburgh City wanting to play out in West Lothian. They have just opened the new club / bar close to Meadowbank so will look to build around the community in that area.

I've heard Meadowbank is getting a facelift, so I'd assume Edin City won't be moving.

I think there will be a concern of financial problems again, certainly attempting to sustain the club as a full time entity with the limited support and the upkeep and costs associated with such a big stadium. To my mind, they'd be better selling the stadium and allowing the council to develop the land (which they own anyway) and allow Livingston to build a smaller stadium on the outskirts of town (though their matchday experience is bad enough right now with a lack of decent pubs nearby).Madness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

I was worki at Livi earlier in the season and I heard a few people behind the scenes say if Livi were to go down this season they'd be in serious trouble...

As you mention it i heard last week from the owner of one of the local businesses that sponsor Livvi that they are very close to going out the box

They go into administration again. They are skint. At a recent employment tribunal they said if the award went against them they'd go into administration, the amount was only £18k. Hearts , Rangers and Hibs have kept them going for the last 2 seasons. When Hearts took 8000 their it was like 4 extra homes

Would go for Jordan White, offers something different.He's worth a punt for little outlay.

Livingston seemed to save their best performances when playing against us. They looked tidy and efficient and were a bit of a handful. Surprising to see find them where they are.

What happened to that boy that scored against Rangers a Peach of a free kick last year? Hypolite or something?

Rangers and Hearts aren't the only clubs that have mismanaged their finances in the past and Livi's haphazard approach to this transcends different directors, boards and leaders. I don't think they are a viable entity and I'd shed no tears for them if they ended up going belly-up.
We need to start getting tough with this crap in Scotland.

Would go for White. Has looked a threat when we've played them.
Would be a decent replacement for Farid imo, who is sadly to injury prone following his long spell out.

Never good to see a club go out of business - another nearby team we won't be playing next season either, should we stay down.

Throw in motherwell and Dundee plus any other tin pot cheats. Zero sympathy for any of them at all. Scotland has too many clubs anyway.

Knox is close to signing for Rangers, would take White as a back up
