Career
Born in Edmonton, London, Livermore previously played for Millwall, where he was captain, and as a trainee at Arsenal. Whilst at Millwall, he played in the 2004 FA Cup Final where they lost to Manchester United.
Livermore joined Hull City in bizarre circumstances, having spent only ten days as a Leeds United player after signing from Millwall in the summer of 2006.[1] He joined Hull for an undisclosed fee, after Leeds manager Kevin Blackwell admitted the club had already acquired other players in the same position in Ian Westlake and Kevin Nicholls, and felt Livermore's first team chances were limited.[2]
Livermore missed Hull's first two matches in the 2006–07 season through injury, but went on to play in twenty-five league games, scoring four goals and aiding Hull in escaping relegation.
He joined Oldham Athletic on loan on 31 January 2008,[3] playing 10 games and scoring once.
On 5 June 2008, Hull announced that Livermore would be leaving the club that summer, following their promotion to the Premier League.[4]
On 3 July 2008, it was announced that Livermore had agreed a two-year contract at League One club Brighton & Hove Albion.[5]
On 26 March 2009, Livermore was allowed to leave Brighton to join League Two side Luton Town on loan,[6] where he made eight appearances.
On 2 February 2010, it was revealed that Livermore and Brighton had mutually terminated the players contract, although his current contract would not expire until the end of the season. On 4 February 2010 he signed with Barnet, scoring once in 14 appearances, against Darlington. After a change of manager two games before the end of the 2009–10 season, he was released by Barnet.
Livermore was appointed manager of Conference National team Histon on 23 August 2010.[7]
Style of play
His preferred position is central midfield, but he can also play in defence, either in the centre or at left-back.
