Which is your choice Scottish League Football Team?

Livingston

As a child i was fascinated with the league tables. I used to have the league ladders that came with the Shoot Magazine, id get the Shoot magazine regularly and enjoy spending ages looking at the League tables. I would be forever looking at them on teletext as well and even spent hours reading a history of football book my dad had which had all the league tables from start back in 1890 or whatever it was right up until 1982 which is when the book was published. Id often pick a random team and follow their journey from the start.

Anyway, back to the point in question. I remember one shoot magazine and seeing a team called Meadowbank Thistle at the bottom of the Scottish pyramid. I then remember them always being bottom - this probably isn't the case and my childhood memory is over exaggerating it. Anyway, i'm sure they reformed as Livingston and went on a hell of a journey, only bettered by Gretna but they stuck around and i have looked out for them ever since.
I went to the Meadowbank stadium by mistake in 1971 - I was looking for Easter Rd and got lost! I eventually found it and have tentatively followed Hibs since then.
 
St. Mirren for me as I was born in Paisley. Also a good way to avoid following one of the big two
Same for me born in Paisley started watching the buddies before moving to Teesside when I was 12.

I still get to see the odd game and was lucky enough to get tickets when they won the league cup beating Hearts around 10 years ago.
