The 39-year-old's departure marks the end of a brief and challenging tenure at the helm of the West Lothian club.\n\nBartley, a former midfielder for both Hibernian and Livingston, stepped into the head coach role in January. He was promoted from his assistant position following a significant restructuring at the club that saw David Martindale transition into a newly created sporting director role. Martindale had been a central figure at Livingston since 2014 and served as manager for nearly six years, guiding the team back to the top flight via the play-offs after a previous relegation.\n\nThe managerial change in January was intended to provide a new impetus, but the club's on-field struggles proved insurmountable. Livingston endured a historic 33-game winless run across all competitions, with 31 of those matches coming in the league. This streak set a new record for the longest without a victory in the history of the Scottish top flight, a statistic that underscores the depth of the team's difficulties this season.\n\nBartley did manage to guide his side to a crucial 2-0 away victory against St Mirren two weeks prior to his resignation, a result that offered a glimmer of hope in their battle against the drop. However, the team was unable to build on that momentum. A subsequent 2-2 draw with Aberdeen was not enough to secure their Premiership status, especially when results elsewhere conspired against them.\n\nThe final blow to Livingston's survival hopes was delivered not on their own pitch, but at Rugby Park. Second-bottom Kilmarnock's victory over Dundee United the day after the Aberdeen draw mathematically confirmed Livingston's relegation. This outcome sealed the fate that Bartley and his coaching staff had been fighting to avoid.\n\nAlongside Bartley, coach Neil Hastings has also left the club. Their departures leave a significant void in the coaching structure with three Premiership matches still remaining in the season. To ensure continuity and leadership for these final fixtures, the club has turned to veteran midfielder Scott Arfield.\n\nArfield, a experienced professional with a distinguished career, will now head up an interim management team. His task will be to see out the season, provide stability, and guide the players through what is undoubtedly a difficult period for the club and its supporters. The focus will shift to finishing the campaign with professionalism before a summer of rebuilding begins.\n\nBartley's overall record as head coach stands at one win, six draws, and four defeats from his 11 matches in charge. While the sample size is small, the context of a team deep in a relegation battle makes the challenge he faced exceptionally clear. The record reflects the immense difficulty of trying to turn around a side that had been on a prolonged winless streak.\n\nThe relegation marks a significant setback for Livingston, a club that had established itself as a stable Premiership presence under Martindale's leadership. The path back to the top flight will now require a new long-term strategy, starting with the appointment of a permanent manager to lead the team in the Scottish Championship next season.\n\nBased on reporting from BBC Sport.","news","Marvin Bartley steps down as Livingston head coach after the club's relegation from the Scottish Premiership.
