SNS Livingston will contact the Scottish FA to report Aberdeen over an alleged racial comment made to striker Jeremy Bokila. Following Livingston's 6-2 defeat by Aberdeen at Pittodrie on Saturday, manager David Martindale said 37-year-old Bokila was in tears in the changing room after a comment made to him on the pitch. It is understood the alleged comment was of a racial nature and came amid a second-half melee that resulted in Bokila being sent off.

I've been linked with every job in Scotland, England, Ireland. I've been in the game a long, long time now, so you just get used to getting linked with stuff. I can't control what people say. It's nice that people think you should be linked with that there. I've got a big enough job to concentrate on Tuesday night than concentrating on anybody else and what you also have to remember is somebody's lost their job, which is horrible.

A change of formation, from 4-2-3-1 to 3-4-2-1, by manager Jimmy Thelin has led to a run of five clean sheets in seven domestic games and a rise from bottom spot to seventh place, three points off the top six. Their newly found steel at the back means only Celtic and Rangers have taken more points over the past eight league matches.
