Ferranti Thistle,Meadowbank Thistle or Livingston fc, call them what you want but they filled a void in one of Scotland's largest modern towns that had no community based football club. the community, is comprised of huge Glasgow overspills and a lot of Edinburgh/West Lothian influx. a good mate of mine, who was a Celtic fan, decided to take his boy to Livi matches just to veer him away from the religious nonsense of the west re-fitba. for that, I applaud him. nevertheless, it is still an uphill struggle for even Livingston. don't like their playing surface, but do admire what their manager has done this season.the ground holds 10k, so they are there on merit
