Perhaps we will also again bully the ref into booking half our team and reducing us to 10 men

I like Father Barry's more positive spin on the game although pretty sure Grant starts his 3 game suspension now and wont be available?

If john starts his 3 game ban its dissapointing but i can see us moving mark brown into midfield and keeping danny main or putting buist in at centreback.

Does anyone have more of an idea who will lay for Alloa tomorow?

According to the local paper Allan Maitland expects McClune and Buist to be ready for Tuesday. I agree he will likely move Mark Brown into the middle tomorrow, especially if John Grant is suspended; it's an area we will need to be ready to compete physically with Stenny in.

BBC say Buist should be fit for tomorrow which would definately be good news. They also mention Welsh being unavailable, who knows whats going on there.

Stennie will come to the Recs to be very defensive IMO. They fancy themselves to catch Brechin and see a draw as good result which was something we were happy with against Cowden on Tuesday.

Alloa probably played some of their best football in the first when these teams last met but he second half was interupted by injuries to a few Stennie players.

I think this will be our toughest game this season to date - result 3-1 to Alloa, with Prunty, Stevenson and Kerr among the scorers

O rly?

I think I've just fallen in love with Bryan Prunty.

Edit; having thought about it for a minute, I definitely have, there is no 'I think' about it.

Whereas Clyde are rocketing down the Scottish League, and their fans are all just complete rockets.

Overall performance was shit ! But the result was great. They showed great character to keep going and dug deep to get a win

P.S Prunty and Gormley <3

[Gaviano]

I gave up with 5 mins to go. Did I miss anything?

Not much. Just a great comeback, peach of a goal from Prunty and a class celebration from Gormley

Alloa Have Top Spot In The League. Where Are Clyde? Away Tae f**k

We were brutal at home again. The amount of times we just punted the ball back to front was unreal.

Although, the determanation at the end was brilliant. First goal was the keepers fault, looked to have caught it easily but then proceeded to fall on his c**t and drop the ball to Gormley who fired it in. At that point I was extremely glad, and looking back at the game would have been over the moon to get out with a point. Then Prunty scored. The most important goal of the season so far, Buist played the ball into Carrols feat who played a cracking ball over the Stenny defence and Prunty smashed it in from a tight angle.

Stenny fans will be gutted, deserved at least a point if not more.

And the most expensive balls in the SFL/world.

[beaver1]

Flabbergasted I think. We should have been out of sight by half time, and even after we went down to 10 men (stupid sending off again) I just couldn't see Alloa getting a shot on target, far less a goal. However, taking away the last two minutes, there was a lot to be encouraged about. I just can't see us getting relegated.

A classic symptom of straw-clutching syndrome. Reflecting on past glory instead of trying to create some.

What a turnaround. Everything is pointing to Alloa winning this league.

[girlies]

Did Bomber pick up an injury that made him get taken off at HT??

[Pol]

Gutted. Absolutely gutted.

Alloa did not even deserve a point today. We started really well, Crawford having a complete nightmare as per against us - I really don't see how Alloa fans can rate him anything more than poor/average. Not got a clue how he has 13 clean sheets to his name. He did take some amount of stick today and his reaction when his team scored was rather quite humorous.

Dalziel scored a soft header as Crawford came flapping out - Walker and Crawford must really hate playing againt Scott Dalziel. In the 4 of the 5 games played this season he has ran Walker ragged and made Crawford seem a poor goalie.

Again though Thomson gives the referee (who I thought done reasonably well today) a reason to send him off. My old man reckons it wasn't a sending off, booking at most but from where I was standing he kicked out at the Alloa boy and therefore deserved the consequences. McCluskey made a complete arse of the equaliser! The initial save was good but as he knew he was falling into the goal couldn't he have threw it to the side, out the park, or even over the bar rather than right to the feet of Gormley. The winner was a sickener - practically last kick of the ball.

The team played well today - Andy Stirling and Willie Lyle being the stand outs.

(Apart from the goals) Alloa never created anything and neither McCluskey or the defense had too much to deal with. Lyle and Thomson had a reasonable shift down the wings - today was the first time I have seen Willie Lyle needing a bit of a breather. Thats in no way questioning his workrate in any other game he has played for us but highlighting how much he got up and down the wing today. Pat was quite poor, his passing, finishing and fitness just wasn't there. Thomson was doing well until the sending off. "Magic" was quite magic today. Played really well - no idea why he was substituted when Scullion was breathing out his arse after an hour. Diack was poor today. Part of the first half he seemed lively down the left and whipping a few balls in but other than that he seemed disinterested, he wasn't moving for other players and was a passenger at times. Dalziel done well today, ran Walker ragged and got himself a goal, he could have had more though.

Gutted we never even got a point from this one especially that the results went our way - Clyde pumped, Arbroath pumped, East Fife pumped and Dumbarton drew. At least the Clyde and Arbroath results get us a game closer to survival.

Alloa WILL win this league now. The result today is the result champions pull of when it gets down to the nitty-gritty at the end of the season.
