Chance to reach a cup final tonight and build on the feel good factor of the last few days.
It`s about as difficult an opponent you could ask for in this cup, but we`ve got home advantage and I think we can edge a close game. It might even take extra time or penalties.
I noticed the kick off is 19.35 and not the normal evening time of 19.45.

Either of those 2 would put us at as a disadvantage due to both being plastic pitches.

You`ll have to tell the SPFL then since they run it and have their name in the competition name! Think it`ll be at Airdrie anyway.
Thinking of going to this one tonight, but I might wait until the teams are announced. If there`s any sign of some new players I`ll probably head up. Don`t think there will be too many chamber maybe Yeboah for Kane, Ritchie-Hosler for Stevens and Hampson for Wotherspoon. If Mullan is fit he might come in for Benedictus. Think Livingston will take this seriously so might be a decent test.

What`s the logic in getting a free kick 15 yards in there half, just on stroke of halftime then end up going backwards and sideways all way back into our own half, it`s baffling. Livi deserve the lead, but we`ve had a couple of glimpse of their goal so fingers crossed for improvement in 2nd half.

Would be good to see Hampson get a chance. Swap him for Yeboah

Livi will see this out with minimum fuss. An experienced side up against a collection of unproven kids. Was always going to be a challenge .

Hard to make much of the game when we bizarrely started with three holding midfielders in a 4-3-3. Quite where the creativity was meant to come from I have no idea. I`d have had Hampson on for Hamilton at half time. We are still trying to play out from the back which doesn`t work with that set up and even if it did we are so slow getting it out it doesn`t matter anyway.
Having said that, it`s not like Livingston have been miles ahead of us, they had one good set piece delivery while in the main ours had been shocking. Even from open play the final ball has been woeful. The ref letting Livi away with multiple tactical fould didn`t help as we couldn`t get a rhythm going.
Of the new boys, Mullan looks pretty good and once he`s up to speed and knows his teammates should be a good signing. Assuming we stay up and he stays long term that could be great business. "Rivaldo" looked decent I thought, always looking to get across and nip away but with a bit of skill to go with it. Looks an upgrade on Hamilton as much as I love Chris H. Yeboah is trying but doesn`t look like a natural finisher. You might get 5 or 6 goals a season and he runs the channels but he`s had very little to work with. Disappointed that Hampson didn`t come on as he was possibly the one I was most looking forward to seeing. Unless we nick an equaliser and it goes to extra time of course...

It’s encouraging to see how well we are finishing the game. We’ve been decent second half, actually.

Really encouraging - same old story, not clinical and punished - nothing new.

Two really cheap goals to lose. Disappointing to lose, especially with the home advantage. Livi have done exactly what they done against Falkirk. Got the goals and absorbed the pressure well. Wilson and McGowan are too good for this level.

No advantage playing on that surface. We would have been better playing away.

p*sh result but lots of positives. Mullen at CB looks real class and settled immediately into the back line.
On a horrendous pitch I think our football has been really decent at times.
Experience won it in the end though.

Just the start of the squad rebuild, you can see we need to clean the squad out. Let’s hope we do enough to stay clear of the relegation spots.

Disappointing overall. Pitch looks dire, must`ve destroyed the roots in the short time the heating was on.
Goals win games, not enough chances made and none taken.
Some positives from the new guys, hopefully they will find their way and settle in. Staying in the league is most important

Really impressed by Mullen. Some good stuff from McCann too. Both playing on the same pitch so can`t complain too much. Felt we just didn`t take our chances but we`re talking about a team made up of a lot of new lads who won`t have gelled yet.

Livingston have performed extremely well on this pitch (as bad as it is) They’ve barely put a foot wrong all game and defended any crossed balls easily. Only two chances I recall at goal for us was the header in the first half and Yeboah’s one on one. Pretty sure Livi only had two clear chances as well but they made the most of them.
I would argue home advantage still matters regardless of the pitch. Fan backing can still be massive.
As much as it’s gutting to lose, Mullen deserves a lot of credit for his performance. Glad to see him getting man of the match.

The Otoo and Hamilton midfield doesn’t work either and needs binned.

I thought we done OK tonight against a team who beat Falkirk on Friday night.
That Livi team performance is what we should be aiming for long term. The very definition of professionalism.
Plenty positives if you want to see them.
Mullen should be offered a deal tomorrow. He`s outstanding on the ball.

It’s amazing how people see games and players differently. I thought that performance was decent and there is good potential in all the new boys in the team tonight. Considering they have only been at the club for a few days and have never played together I think they deserve more credit than criticism. Very small margins in the match with Livi having the experience and team cohesion to see the game out. (IMHO)

Really impressed with Mullen. Thought we were unlucky with Livi`s 2nd goal. Thought it should have been a corner with Yeboah`s effort deflected behind. Ref gives a goal kick. Which they clear up the park and score.

I was impressed with the young lad at the back .
Yeboah and Rivaldo were a bit of the pace.
McCann had to find Yeboah with that chance but didn’t .
Kane looked ok when he came on . MOH ? Bizarre even seeing him back . Tidser maybe rates him.
GK was iffy and doesn’t do well at the first goal.
Otoo and Hamilton doesn’t work . They are combative midfielders but offer nothing else .
