We’re pleased to welcome Bobby Wales, on loan from Kilmarnock.
Wales, 18, has just signed a deal at Rugby Park to keep the promising striker until 2025 and will continue his development with first team football at the Wasps.
Bobby has regularly represented the Scotland youth team from U17 up to U19 level and although Kilmarnock B exited the SPFL Trust Trophy in the second round on penalties against Dumbarton, Wales was on target against the Sons and Bonnyrigg in the previous round.
We can confirm Nathan Cannon has went on loan to WoSFL Premier Division side Benburb FC.
Nathan, 18, has made three first team appearances after signing a professional contract this season and will continue his development at New Tinto Park.
The Govan side currently sit 5th in the Premier Division, three points off leaders Beith Juniors.
We’re pleased to welcome Alistair Roy to the Indodrill Stadium. Ally, 26, signs on loan from East Kilbride.
Roy’s a familiar face to lower league fans with stints on loan at East Stirling, Stenhousemuir and Dumbarton while a Heart of Midlothian youth before full time deals at Partick Thistle, Airdrieonians and Queen of the South.
He had a handful of appearances at Morton last season after playing in Ireland with Glentoran. He’s lead the line at leaders East Kilbride chipping in with August’s Lowland League goal of the month against Cowdenbeath.

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.’

Weโre 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 tomorrowโs match against Falkirk.
Welcome to the Wasps!
After the success of the History of Alloa Athletic book last season, a second book โDiary of a Season2022/23โ is now available to purchase. The book will retail at ยฃ 19.99 in Waterstones online, but at a discounted price of ยฃ14.99 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.
