Livingston boss David Martindale admits his side are now in a relegation battle after injury-time heartache against Motherwell cost them a top six berth as they let a two goal lead slip against the Steelmen.
The Lions went into the final game before the split with the ability to finish the afternoon anywhere between fourth and 10th place in a riveting race for the top half.
They knew they had to win and hope either Hibs or Ross County slipped up in their respective clashes and it was all going to plan for 70 minutes with Livingston producing a tremendous display as they strolled to a 2-0 lead at the Tony Macaroni Arena.
