Willison is a Wasp

Alloa are pleased to announce the signing of Reece Willison.

The 21 year old goalkeeper was most recently an understudy at Airdrieonians in 2019/20 where he made 4 appearances. With Neil Parry’s injury against Edinburgh City on Tuesday the former Celtic and St Mirren youth adds some vital depth to the goalkeeping position.

He goes straight into the team to face Greenock Morton.

Highlights

Alloa and Dundee were both looking to overcome what’s been a sub-par start to the season for both teams. Alloa, still looking for their first points, bring back Steven Hetherington and Adam Brown in place of Innes Murray and Lee Connelly, respectively. Dundee meanwhile were rocked by a positive COVID-19 test. With one player confirmed infected they were without any adequate cover at CB, with Jordan McGhee their only recognised central defender. Right back Cammy Kerr would slot in in a makeshift Dee defence. ‘The Wasps’ were first break the deadlock. Adam Brown’s corner failed to beat the first man but found it’s way back to the midfielder. Amidst the chaos of the transitioning Dundee defence Robert Thomson was in acres of space. Brown’s delivery left it on a platter for Alloa’s top scorer to slot past the helpless Calum Ferrie. Dundee came out energised at the second half and leveled from a Declan McDaid volley. Unsighted with the ball coming through a crowd of players, Willison, who was rooted to the spot could only watch as it raced into the bottom corner. With the seeming momentum with the away side, Alloa struck back. Liam Dick headed into the mix and ever agile and dangerous in the box Cawley shot off Trouten’s layoff, but saw his effort straight at Ferrie saved. Alan Trouten, thankfully, anticipated the rebound and handily tapped home to send Alloa into the lead again. Lee Connolly, after driving through two Dundee defenders had an excellent opportunity to extend the lead, but instead of laying a square pass on the plate for Trouten the forward had his effort blocked in what should have been a corner. The officials though failed to see the deflection amidst the increasing fog. Minutes later though Alloa would again sting James McPake’s side as Hetherington driven shot was diverted off the studs of Alan Trouten to meg Currie and give the ‘Wasps’ a commanding lead. Dundee inevitably reacted and systematically forced the increasingly defensive Wasps back. Paul McGowan managed to feint and spin to open a wonderful opportunity from 8 yards but for a rapid, reflex save by Reece Willison that wowed the watching TV cameras. Charlie Adam had the corner delivered straight into the net, only to see it being chopped off fairly for a push on Willison. But soon Alloa would concede. Adam’s ball into the box ricocheting off the post. Willison rooted to the spot couldn’t react as the sliding Cammy Kerr saw it unknowingly deflected into the back of the net. Unfortunate but Alloa still had the advantage and 12 minutes to hold off their challengers. Again, Charlie Adam would be at the centre of the Dundee threat. His driven effort was blocked by Taggart but Adam was given a massive helping hand by the officials. Alan Muir pointed to the penalty spot despite Taggart’s arm being pinned to his chest and not deviating to meet the ball. Hardly an ‘unnatural silhouette’ as stipulated by the handball rule and hardly any time to react to Adam’s rasping shot otherwise. The former Liverpool midfielder rattled the penalty home despite Willison diving the right way, beating him with sheer power to the bottom corner. And then it was Dundee’s turn to feel aggrieved by the officials. McDaid sustaining a mistimed challenge from Connelly was upended in the box. Despite the clear contact on the Dundee winger referee Alan Muir deemed the former Ayr man had dived. With such an exciting game of football, punctuated with some great play at either end both teams walked away with the overriding feeling of what could have been. Alloa pick up their first hard-earned point of the season and look forward to a potential Betfred cup qualification against Stenhousemuir on Saturday.

Stefan Scougall Signs

Alloa Athletic are pleased to announce the signing of former Carlisle United midfielder Stefan Scougall.

Stefan will feature in the Betfred Cup group stage along with his first senior team, Livingston. He made 70 appearances at the Lions, scoring 9, which ended with a move down south to Sheffield United.

After 76 appearances at Bramall Lane and a short stint on loan at Fleetwood Town, Stefan returned to Scotland with St Johnstone. But his time at Perth was marred by injury and the diminutive midfielder again moved south to Carlisle United for the 2018-19 season.

After another 40 appearances in the North of England, Stefan’s search for regular football has lead him to the Indodrill where he’ll wear the number 12 jersey.

Welcome to the Wasps Stefan!

Lee Connelly returns for 2020-21

Alloa Athletic are pleased to welcome back Lee Connelly on a season long loan from Sunderland FC.

The promising youngster’s Alloa career had just ignited in 2020. His first start saw a first goal and an assist against Inverness Caledonian Thistle.

Lee’s not going to have any unfinished business at the Indodrill as he returns to the team before the Betfred Cup campaign kicks off against Airdrieonians on October 7th.

He’ll wear the number 17 shirt this season.

Welcome to Edin

We’re pleased to announce the signing of 20 year old defender Edin Lynch. Edin drew plaudits in his time at East Kilbride, and after a promising trial earned a contract with Premiership club Kilmarnock.

First team opportunities were at a premium, at Rugby Park, for the young defender who featured regularly in the Killie Reserves.

Peter Grant has snapped up the youngster on the expiry of his Kilmarnock contract on a year-long deal.

Edin is a young defender who can play anywhere across the defence, we spoke to Kilmarnock just after his release and they qualified what we already thought about him: he will prove to be a very valuable addition to the squad. He’s at a fantastic age and has a real hunger. With the squad we have here I have no doubt he will only get better. We are really looking forward to working with him.

Peter Grant. Alloa Manager

Innes Murray joins the Wasps

The 22-year-old midfielder has been a mainstay in the Hibernian Development team; while he impressed at spells on loan at Stenhousemuir and Airdrieonians in previous years.

He steps up to make his first foray into Championship football with ‘the Wasps’ on a season long loan.

Innes has already impressed at training at the Indodrill and we look forward to seeing him in competitive action in an Alloa shirt.

Ray Grant signs for Alloa

Twenty three year old midfield player, Raymond Grant has tonight joined “The Wasps” after turning down an offer to extend his stay with Danny Lennon at Clyde where he was a great favourite and a key figure in their team since joining from Norwich City in 2018. We are delighted he has chosen to join his father at Alloa Athletic to play in the Championship next season.

Alloa manager Peter Grant is delighted his son has decided to join us:

It was an extremely difficult decision, first of all for him to leave Clyde as he has had a fantastic time there with a special group of players and staff and a very supportive Clyde support, he had to make his decision what he wanted to do next, to be honest it has been a tough few weeks for him after I asked him would he come and join us and I fully understand why, but for me it was easy football wise, as it fits with the players we have. I’m really looking forward to working with him and I’m sure he will be really excited working along with the fantastic group of players and people we already have at the club.
