Livingston manager: 'Ugly football tag only fuels players'
Livingston manager Gary Holt says the fact people say they play 'ugly football' only fuels his players' desire to win games.
Livingston have won three games in a row and are now third in the table on 10 points since Holt replaced Kenny Miller at the Almondvale Stadium.
Their football may be branded as "ugly", however Holt believes that this label is helping his players win games.
"I don't know if it annoys them or angers them or if it adds fuel to the fire in their bellies, I suppose," Holt said.
"It's one of those things where we believe in sticking to things we are good at. We are good at set-plays so why not use them?
"We are good at harassing teams, getting in their face and winning the second ball but we have some quality players in the final third as well.
"We have got some tricky players and technically gifted players who can create and score goals off their own back like the two goals we scored against Hibernian.
"We will not walk away from what we are good at. It's now about how we can enhance it, make it better and make it even uglier for teams who don't want to play us."
