The 30-year-old admits performances have been far from acceptable in recent losses against Dundee and Kilmarnock.

Livingston skipper Mick Devlin has hit out at his side’s ‘amateurish’ defending after their 2-0 home loss to Dundee.

The Dees skipper was twice found inside the box to turn the ball beyond Shamal George - the first coming from a corner and second from a throw-in. The former Scotland international says they need to do better defensively, but added that they need to show more of a cutting edge at the other end of the park, too.Devlin said: “I don’t think we played well. I thought we were poor and lacked quality. I thought we were competitive at least in the first half and I didn’t think there was much between the two teams to be honest.

“Things that are in your control are organisation, being set up and people knowing their job and the set up was poor for both goals. It was amateurish. If you saw that at Sunday League level you’d be saying it was a poor goal to lose.”
