"We're delighted to have attracted such good quality opposition to Livingston for the forthcoming pre-season," said chief executive Ged Nixon today.

"From a footballing perspective the games arranged so far will provide a test for our players as we built up to our First Division return, while I am sure our fans will enjoy seeing three SPL teams and a strong English side in action."
