Football: Livingston manager Bollan wary of bottom dogs

Published on Friday 30 October 2009 09:00

LIVINGSTON boss Gary Bollan is not treating tomorrow's trip to the Third Division's bottom club as a foregone conclusion.

Although Montrose's league form is chronic, to say the least, Bollan is warning his players against complacency, saying: "It will be a difficult game. It will be on astroturf which means it will be something different to worry about."

The Gable Endies are rooted to the foot of the table without a win, having lost seven and drawn three. However, they won last week's Scottish Cup tie at Banks O'Dee 3-0 and their previous league encounter was an encouraging 2-2 at Forfar, so Livi, who could go top if they win, must be wary at Links Park.

While the first team are engaged in Angus, there is still plenty of football on at Almondvale, with a double bill of youth games on Sunday preceding Monday night's joust with the East of Scotland Under-23s.

On Sunday, fans can see the club's Under-19s and Under-17s in action. The Under-19s kick-off at noon against Airdrie United with the 17s facing Queen's Park at 2.30pm.

Monday's game kicks off at 7.45pm and season tickets are valid. Admission is 4 to non-season ticket holders with 2 concessions.
