We can confirm striker, Luke Rankin, has joined East Stirlingshire on loan until the end of the season.

The Lowland League team led by former Wasp Pat Scullion currently sit fifteenth in the eighteen team league and should hopefully allow Luke more playing time. Best of luck and we look forward to seeing his development at ‘the Shire.’

We’re delighted to announce the signing of forward Taylor Steven on a season long loan from St. Johnstone.

The 18-year-old forward has previous loan spells with Civil Service Strollers and East Fife making 23 appearances at Bayview last term. Highly thought of in Perth, he’s already made 5 appearances for St Johnstone’s first team this season. He adds more depth with his ability at either wing or centre forward.

Taylor goes straight into the squad for tomorrow’s match against Falkirk.

Welcome to the Wasps!

After the success of the History of Alloa Athletic book last season,  a second book “Diary of a Season2022/23” is now available to purchase. The book will retail at £ 19.99 in Waterstones online, but at a discounted price of £14.99 from the club. Diary of a Season 2022/23 continues where the History book ends. It covers what has happened at the club over the course of last season through articles and stats as well as match photos by David Glencross.

Both John Glencross and Stuart Latham have added additional information that has come to light since the history book was published, Jonathan Markwell has also added some of his brilliant articles which are always worth reading. As with the history book, all profits will go to the club.

Nathan Cannon becomes the latest player to advance along the player pathway into the first team.

He made his first substitute appearance for the first team against Stirling Albion last Saturday and has been awarded a professional contract to continue his development. Nathan, 17, has previously caught the eye to represent the Scottish Schools FA in international competition and has been training with the first team since last season.

The hard work starts now as Nathan will need to work hard to become an Alloa regular. Well done Nathan and welcome to the first team!

Scottish FA Article 23 – Transmission of Matches/UEFA Article 48 – Blocked Hours Protection

The Scottish FA’s application for transmission free periods (“blocked hours”) for the football season 2023/24 pursuant to Article 48 of the UEFA Statutes has been confirmed by UEFA. The Scottish FA’s ‘blocked hours’ provision, under UEFA Article 28, covers Saturdays between 2.45pm and 5.15pm from 5 August 2023 to 11 May 2024 inclusively. The following Saturday’s are exceptions, and therefore not covered by the ‘blocked hours’ provision:

Saturday 9 September 2023 – Alloa involved in third round SPFL Trust Trophy – Available in the UK & Ireland if at home

Saturday 14 October 2023 – potentially fourth round of SPFL Trust Trophy – Available if at home

Saturday 18 November 2023 – Away to Edinburgh City – don’t offer streaming service

Saturday 6 January 2024 – Home to Edinburgh City – Available in Scotland (but not England)

Saturday 13 January 2024 – Away to Queen of the South – don’t offer streaming service

Saturday 23 March 2024 – Home to Queen of the South – Available in the UK & Ireland

In effect, the protection prohibits the transmission of matches within Scotland during the period of ‘blocked hours’.

Clubs are also advised that the English FA has also been granted ‘blocked hours’ protection pursuant to UEFA Article 48, prohibiting the transmission of matches within England on Saturday’s between 2.45pm and 5.15pm from 5 August 2023 to 20 April 2024 (excluding Saturday 9 September, 14 October, 18 November, 30 December 2023 and 13 January and 23 March 2024).

Clubs will still be able to transmit matches outside of the UK during the ‘blocked hours’ period.

Finally, under the terms of Scottish FA Article 23 (below), the Scottish FA Board continues to provide permission for clubs to transmit matches outwith the ‘blocked hours’ period in all competitions, except those already covered by specific broadcast agreements. The parameters for transmitting matches in competitions covered by specific broadcast arrangements will be confirmed directly by the competition organiser.

“A match played under the jurisdiction of the Scottish FA shall not be transmitted in whole or in part, in any form, or by any means, whether electronic, mechanical, recording, film,  video, over the air, via cable, via the Internet (including online streaming), via mobile telephones, on demand, or otherwise, except with the prior consent of the Board.  The Scottish FA shall retain all copyright and other intellectual property rights in matches in the Challenge Cup Competition and any other competitions played under the direct control of the Scottish FA.”

For the avoidance of doubt, clubs are reminded that they are not permitted to transmit their matches in Scotland or in England between the ‘blocked hours’ period of Saturday between 2.45pm and 5.15pm during the dates outlined above under the terms of UEFA Article 48.
