LIVINGSTON had a double success on Saturday, with a 3-1 home win over East Fife watched by a crowd of 3205, most of whom will be back.
It is not easy to lure back fans but Livvy have tried the discount system. Admission was #4 for adults and #1 for juveniles and OAPs, which doubled the normal home crowd.
Man-of-the-match David Bingham headed the opener early on from a John Millar cross.
Barry Moffat headed an equaliser from a Gilbert Allan cross, but the home lead was restored before the break when Bingham released Brian McPhee, whose trickled effort might not have reached goal had John Robertson not been there to make sure.
The former Hearts man did not look like a veteran - he was still covering a lot of ground late in the game - and was involved in the third goal.
He punished casual defending and was pulled down by keeper Willie McCulloch, who earned a red card from Jim McCluskey when he confronted Robertson after the penalty was awarded. Bingham converted the kick.
A John Crawford own goal and a Duncan Shearer effort gave Inverness a 2-1 home win over Arbroath and kept them top by three points.
Alan Morgan's winner for Partick against Alloa was a fortunate deflection, while Steven Nicholas earned Stirling the points at home to Queen of the South.
Clyde went two up at Forfar against 10 men with 15 minutes left but had to settle for a draw.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
