Alloa Athletic can confirm that Mike Mulraney will stand down as club Chairman.  

He will be replaced as chairman by existing board director Andy Allan with the changeover effective from next Monday.

Mike, who has led Alloa Athletic since 2005, will remain an Honorary President of the club as he undertakes the duties as President of the Scottish FA.

 “Having been elected President of the Scottish FA, I felt that I could no longer offer Alloa the time and focus required of a chairman. It was always my intention to step down before the start of the new season if elected but it was imperative that the club found someone with the drive, expertise, and passion to take over and push the club forward.

“The club has such a person in Andy and I wish everyone at Alloa Athletic the very best for the future.” 

Andy, a qualified chartered accountant with 40 years’ experience, joined the board in August 2022 and looks forward to the challenge ahead.

“Firstly, I would like to thank Mike and the board for their support since I joined last year. We are all supportive of Mike’s decision, given the commitment required of a President of the Scottish FA.

“I look forward to leading the club forward off the field with the ongoing expertise of our board members and supporting Brian and his team meet our on-field objectives this season and beyond.”
