Latest news on Livingston FC, covering the Lions, Livi, Scottish Championship fixtures, results, transfers and team news from Almondvale Stadium in West Lothian.

Livingston Football Club, known to supporters as the Lions or simply Livi, represent the West Lothian new town in the Scottish Professional Football League. The club plays its home matches at Almondvale Stadium, a venue of just under 10,000 capacity in the heart of Livingston. Few Scottish clubs have experienced such dramatic highs and lows in so short a history.

The club entered a new era in 2025 when American businessman Calvin Ford, a great-great-grandson of industrialist Henry Ford, became chairman and majority shareholder. His arrival placed Livingston among a growing group of Scottish clubs under American ownership. Recent seasons have seen the Lions move between the Premiership and the Championship, with promotion play-off drama a recurring theme at Almondvale.

Livingston sit at the centre of community life in West Lothian, one of Scotland's youngest towns. The club's charitable arm delivers education, health and inclusion programmes across the area, and supporters have backed testimonials honouring long-serving players. Midfielder Scott Pittman holds the club's record for appearances, a mark of loyalty rare in the modern game.

The club traces its roots to Ferranti Thistle, founded in Edinburgh in 1943, later becoming Meadowbank Thistle before relocating to Livingston in 1995. A remarkable rise followed, with successive promotions carrying the club into the top flight, a third-place finish in 2002 and European football in the UEFA Cup. The Lions lifted the Scottish League Cup in 2004, beating Hibernian at Hampden Park, but twice endured administration and fought back from the fourth tier to restore their standing.
