Livingston Wake-up call

Despite early-season optimism proving justified with the Lions reaching the last eight of the Betfred Cup and a clash away to Hibs next month,ourchampionshipcampaignhasgotoff to a faltering start with two draws and a defeat.

It could be said we deserved more out of the games against Dunfermline and Brechin but Saturday’s defeat by ten-man St Mirren was a real wake-up call that we’re no longer playing League 1 football.

A difficult trip to Morton beckons this weekend. However, we have already beaten Jim Duffy’s men there in the Irn-bru Cup nine days ago, so that should give us some encouragement ahead of our trip along the M8. A big performance is needed, though.
