Livingston manager David Martindale stated that Bruce Anderson is edging closer to first team action, although admitted that the forward would only have appeared against Kilmarnock as a last resort.
Anderson has had a troubled season so far with injuries, only appearing in brief fifteen minute cameos against Rangers and Hibernian in the league this season. With reserve football and the international break coming up, Martindale is looking to get last season’s top scorer back and ready for the upcoming weeks.
“If I needed a goal on Saturday, Bruce probably would have been put on. But if I didn’t need to, it was always in the back of my mind that I wasn’t going to. He’s playing probably around 60 minutes today which gives him another three days rest and then the international break gives us another week closer to first team action.”
