Livingston boss David Martindale says last weekend's victory over Aberdeen was the perfect medicine after revealing he had to crawl into hospital the day before.
The 47-year-old took ill on Friday afternoon with excruciating abdominal pain that was later diagnosed as kidney stones and prevented him from taking to the dugout at Pittodrie.
Thankfully for the gaffer he was released from hospital at 2pm and in time to ensure he was able to watch the game and keep in constant dialogue with assistant manager Marvin Bartley who was himself banned for the game with coach Neil Hastings in the dugout.
