Title dream looks over for Livi

Apr 11 2009

Livingston 0 Morton 2

LIVINGSTON'S slim title hopes collapsed after a disappointing home defeat to Morton.

With leaders St Johnstone grabbing a win against Dunfermline, Livi now find themselves 11 points adrift of top spot with four games to play.

Livi's fine recent run - which was rewarded with Paul Hegarty being awarded manager of the month - came to a grinding halt thanks to a double from Morton's Brian Wake.

He put the visitors in front after 19 minutes with a header and added a second shortly before the final whistle to crush Livi's promotion hopes.
