I was late to training and wasn’t switched on enough. It was the worst possible outcome because if it was due to lack of ability I could’ve accepted it".[4]

Hippolyte began his 2015–16 season with what proved to be the winning goal in a 2–1 victory over Clyde in the first round of Livi's defence of the Scottish Challenge Cup.[35] He began the season as a starter, before reverting to a substitute role in October 2015.[36] He departed the Almondvale Stadium on 29 January 2016, having made 64 appearances and scored 8 goals in 18 months with Livingston.[37]
