Livingston chairman Dominic Keane was delighted today after securing the signing of Newcastle midfielder Brian Kerr on a six-month loan deal.

The Scotland international is included in the squad for the Partick game tomorrow after Newcastle boss Bobby Robson gave the go-ahead for the 21-year-old to join the Lions. Keane said: "Brian is joining us and we're pleased because we've been after him for a while.” We had to be patient but it's paid off and we've got him here for an initial six months. Ideally, we'd like to extend that but we'll see how it works out."
