  1. Think you will find we are playing Wick Academy next Saturday in the Scottish Cup and not at Berwick who we will face the FOLLOWING Saturday. Sorry to disappoint you, just hope you can contain yourself until then. Oh by the way how come Berwick are still not in the Cup, oh yes I forgot Hawick Royal Albert pumped them at Home [emoji23]
  2. True he has been recalled to Alloa on Albions Twitter account on Club Website, just did not do enough for me plenty of promise but failed to deliver only scored 1 goal but missed a number of decent chances in games he played for us.
  3. Think he featured as a Trialist on Saturday, don't think they can sign him until Jan. Agree re your comments re Robertson if his head is screwed on he will be an asset for us in a position we are lacking in.
  4. Agree re Henderson just hope MacKay can get him back on track, as Layne is only on loan until Jan as far as I can recall. Regarding Darren Smith again really does not score many goals for us and I would think adding at least one more striker in the New Year could be a priority for us.
  5. Wish him the best, he will have a tough baptism of fire against Elgin on Saturday, who knows the new manager factor means we might get something from this game on Saturday. Just hope he can get the team playing better, might just be able to salvage something from this season yet, here`s hoping.
  6. I would not say that just yet regarding those players, just depends on whether the Board wants to deal with it or leave it to the.new manager to decide what action should be taken against certain players just to show the he is no walkover.
  7. Well done Edinburgh City on your first League win yesterday, now could you let us get the 3 points when we play you on the 10th December, I`m quite sure a lot of Albion fans would be grateful, just look at it as a Xmas present from you to us.
  8. Clearly they have broken the Clubs Media Code of Conduct and should be dealt with, I understand that matters are in hand.
  9. if we beat Forfar then we might see an announcement from Forthbank Towers regarding our new manager if it is Corrigan hope not but if we don't beat Forfar does that mean the search goes on for a new manager or are these rumours about Mark Burchill, Allan Moore, Brian Grant just a smoke screen to delay the appointment of Corrigan for what reason other than the fact the majority of Albion supporters don't want him. Time will tell as they say.
  10. Who knows, the loan is only for a month, just to tide up over at the moment.
  11. New addition to the squad Angus Beith from Hearts on loan for a month, had a previous spell on loan at the Binos, goes into the squad for the Clyde game.
  12. Oh for fucksake !, if that is the case then stand by for explosionns from the fans who don't want him as manager.
  13. Nope things have gone quiet on the manager front, Reading between the lines at recent press stories it would appear Martyn Corrigan our current Caretaker Manager is the favourite for the job. Most Albion fans want someone else as Corrigan was part of the previous management team who did nothing during their time at the club. Might get some movement on the position after the Linlithgow Rose game.
  14. It's a pity that, agree it will be a loss for us, wish him well for the future.
  15. Wondered why he did not start today, hope he gets over it soon, need him for Cowdenbeath next week.
  16. They are now 1 point above us now but hopefully when we get another manager in we will start the charge up the League to hopefully the playoffs.
  17. Fortunately for us at the moment Montrose and Edinburgh City are worse than us. Just hope they stay as bad throughout the season.
  18. Hopefully this will happen shortly, even the Board must see that McLaren just simply isn't the man for the job, why they gave him another contract in the summer is beyond me.
  19. Missed a couple of decent chances yesterday and had the City goalkeeper deny him a goal in the 2nd half with a good save apart from that has done okay.
  20. Hope so but Ross Forsyth isn't getting any younger and sooner rather than later we need someone to take over that position. The Edinburgh City game could be the ideal opportunity to give him any chance imo.
  21. Yes been out since picking up a knee injury against Falkirk,hopefully he gets back to fitness soon. Another option for us when he returns.
  22. Agree regarding Dickson, feel their is a good player somewhere but he only shows it on rare occasions, most of the rest of the time he just runs around doing not much. At the end of the day McLaren has to get us into at least the playoffs to keep his job, anything less and he's gone. That might come sooner if we start shipping goals away from home.
  23. I didn't think the defence was that bad tbh, it could be that McLaren thought his main concern lay in the midfield and up front. He has brought in a couple of good players in Hodge, Ferns, Henderson and MacKenzie who have shown they can perform well but I just wonder why he dropped Davidson from the lineup to the bench this season. Imo he should be a starter, also surely Jamie Mills should be getting more game time, Ross Forsyth has been a good servant to the club but I feel he should be playing less this season and Mills should be given the chance to show what he can do at left back.
  24. Hopefully we can improve but as I have said previously the Board made the decision to give him an extension to his contract despite the performance last season in finishing 7th. He is at the last chance saloon imo and if results don`t go well in the next 4 or 5 weeks and we continue to ship goals then I expect the Board to get rid of him. He`s being given more money than Greg McDonald had in the signing of Blair Henderson tbh and while he looks like a good signing so far we need to make sure the defence stops leaking goals overwise its pointless being able to score goals but lose more at the other end, that's what the manager is paid to sort out and if he can`t then he needs to be replaced with someone who is capable of doing that. Football is a results driven business and if the results are poor then ultimately the manager carries the can.
