Livingston F.C., a Scottish football club nestled in the heart of Scotland, came into being in the year of 1943. Being relatively recent, as the aged-rich history of the beautiful game goes, they have made considerable strides and etched their moniker in the lush green fabric of the sport. Their theatre of dreams, or more prosaically, their football ground is rather prosaically named The Home of the Set Fare Arena.
Showing a nice blend of experience and youth, Livingston boasts a squad of precisely 28 players drawn from various backgrounds. Conforming to the numbers game, the median age hovers around a steady 27, a careful mix of burgeoning youth and mature philosophy.
This season has seen Livingston throw their hat into the proverbial ring for two coveted competitions. Balancing their acts on two stages, they currently stand at a respectable 7th position in the Premiership, whilst their journey in the much-vaunted League Cup saw them bow out in the second round. No doubt the defeat stung, as not even the faintest whiff of the hallowed Old Firm glory days of pre-2013 could alleviate the sour taste.... but, in true Livingston spirit, they pick themselves up and continue the battle on the green battlefield.
