Alloa Athletic Coupon buster

The Clash once sang: “When they kick out your front door, how you gonna come, with your hands on your head or on the trigger of your gun”. On Saturday, Alloa certainly showed their appetite for resistance in the relegation dogfight. The terrific 1-0 victory over leaders Ross County would have sunk football coupons up and down the land.

The game saw the long-awaited first start of loanee Celtic youngster Jack Aitchison, who demonstrated intelligence beyond his 19 years against a physically daunting County backline.

Unfortunately most of the teams near the bottom gained points. But for Alloa it’s onwards to another hugely decisive game away to Falkirk this Saturday.
