LIVINGSTON have landed an awards double after Ryan Hardie and David Hopkin were named Championship player and manager of the month respectively. 

Four wins and a draw in February helped propel Livi up to second place in the table, eight points ahead of Morton in third with a game in hand.

Hardie was instrumental in the run, scoring four goals to take his total tally at the Tony Macaroni Arena to five. 

The 20-year-old sealed a move to the Championship club until the end of the season during the January transfer window.

Victories over Falkirk, St Mirren, Dundee United and Morton and a draw with Dunfermline last month have made Hopkin's side favourites for the runners-up spot, although they remain 11 points adrift of the Buddies at the summit of the table.
