Alloa v Forfar - Scott gives Maitland lift

Posted Saturday, October 02, 2010 by PA

Alloa midfielder Brown Ferguson and striker Stuart Noble are both out injured, but Andy Scott has been added to the squad for the visit of Forfar.

Manager Allan Maitland has warned his players to be on their guard against former Wasps Michael Bolochoweckyj and Iain Campbell.

Maitland said: "I noticed Bolochoweckyj scored for Forfar last weekend, so I've told my players to be aware of his presence, particularly at set pieces. Campbell is another former player out to show us what we are missing."

Maitland added: "Dick Campbell will make Forfar a really difficult side to beat, but Livingston did it and we have to match their results to keep in touch with them."

Forfar have added Dundee United loan signing Scott Allan and long-term absentee Darren Brady to their squad.

Allan is expected to be in manager Dick Campbell's starting line-up as Forfar bid to end a run of one league win in four games.

Michael Bolochoweckyj, Ross Campbell and Martyn Fotheringham have all recovered from knocks and are available, but Paul Lunan is suspended and Dale Hilson is on international duty with Scotland Under-19s.

Campbell said: "We are looking to bounce back after the Airdrie game. There's not a lot wrong with the team and after a good hard week's training we are ready for Alloa."
