Still says the Energy Assets arena on the official site.
Hopefully it is; would give people the chance to buy the new top as well.

Livi win friendly
Posted on July 7th, 2015
We went down 2-0 to a strong Livingston side in a closed-door friendly on the Forthbank Astro on Tuesday evening.
Mark Burchill’s men scored early on with the aid of a deflection and doubled their lead midway through the second half.
Lee Hamilton, Ross McGeachie and Kevin McKinlay missed out due to minor injuries while Ross Forsyth, Mark Staunton and Sandy Cunningham were the only players to feature for the full 90 minutes.
Binos boss Stuart McLaren took the opportunity to look at a couple of trialists and we created some good chances and generally held our own for most of the game.
The Lions travelled to Forthbank Astro last night for a closed door friendly with Stirling Albion.
A real mix of first team players, youth squad and trialists saw Livi run out 2-0 winners on the night, with goals from Danny Mullen and Myles Hippolyte securing the win.
“Everyone played 45 minutes again” said manager Mark Burchill who was pleased with his embryonic squad’s performance.
“It was a very good run out for the guys, and a valuable experience in getting more match minutes and fitness in their legs.”

Good to see Mullen and Hippo getting in on the goals.

Equally good to see us not shipping any goals with several makeshift defences over the past two games. I appreciate its not top-notch opposition but they'd undoubtedly be up for it so its good to see us keep it tight.

I get a chill running down my spine when I think of Greg Strong in our defence *shudder*.

Marv stuck the heid on Stiliyan Petrov too and did him an injury, needed stiches inside his mouth iirc. Petrov that is, not heid like a demolition ball Marv.
Rubio also got Hartson a dull one, elbows had to go off and get stitches, then came back on and elbowed Rubio in the face.
Must've been something we didn't like about Celtic players.

Good stuff, think i'll head along to it, reminds me of the Creamery park friendlies when our ground was out of use post Flynn.

What about the "tackle" Gary Bollan did on Jackie McNamara in our first game against Celtic which earned him a red card?

Edit* I see the OS has the trialist that came on for Mullen as Longridge which is strange, wonder if we've signed him as trialists don't get named on team sheets.
