New look Lions!

You may spot a subtle difference in the look of our team today, and that's because they will be kitted out in our brand new 2010-11 home kit.

The new kit is the first in a new three-year kit sponsorship deal with Italian based manufacturer Errea .

Errea have substantial experience in kitting out professional football clubs and their current customers include Burnley, Bristol Rovers and Inverness Caley Thistle.

Livingston FC's commercial director Charles Burnett is delighted to have concluded a new contract which will see Errea invest a “substantial” amount in Livingston through playing and training kit for our professional players.

“We were approached by a number of kit suppliers with a view to doing a deal with us, and after assessing all the options we felt that Errea was the best option going forward,” said Charles.

“Errea have been keen to work with us in the past, and we were impressed with the quality of the merchandise that they produce for players and supporters alike.

“They see the potential of the club and I think the deal we have done with them acknowledges that, so we are looking forward to a successful and mutually beneficial relationship with them over the next three seasons.”

As part of the new deal the club will be releasing home and away kits for the new season with replica home shirts scheduled to be available in mid-June.

Adult shirts will be available at £37 with kids sizes at £30 - pre-orders for the shirts are being taken now at the Livingston FC Club Shop at Almondvale Stadium and online soon at www.thefootballnation.co.uk

The new look away kit will be released at a later date.

In addition to the new playing kit, a range of club branded Errea clothing will be launched in time for the new season.
