What's happened to Connor Murray is he out of favour with the manager? He hasn't featured very much from the bench lately considering he is currently our most experienced sub.

Well, what a game in the end up. Queens just couldn't get going at all as Alloa hounded the life out of them in the first half. I swear they were like men possessed and it took another wonder strike from Dobbie to get us back in the game, quickly followed by another. The second half was a hum dinger as we pressed but Alloa also hit us hard on the break. Took a wonder save by Martin to rescue a point in the end up . As said above , Alloa are no slouches and will give plenty bloody noses this season. The genius that is Dobbie will get all the praise but I thought Mercer also had a great game with some determined play down the right side. Well done Scott !
I am sorry to disagree but Mercer was not good today. Lost his man for both goals and was given a torrid time by the Alloa 15 who I must say was a very decent player.
A cracking match. Alloa impressed me today but it is certainly 2 points dropped.
Dobbie is just brilliant, 3 excellent strikes.
Harkins I hope has not too serious an injury but he done hee haw before going off.
Both Marshall and Mercer were poor in my view and it was only Dobbie, Doyle and
Semple who got pass marks from me.
Martin did make an excellent save near the end turning the ball onto the post but
we need a more assured No1.
Watching Dobbie is a delight and worth the entrance money alone.
I thought the Ref today had a very good first half , letting play flow and giving
the advantage to the attacking team but in the last 20 mins he lost it, he let Alloa
away with a lot of blatant tugging,pulling and hand balls which could have cost us
a point and likely denied us all 3.
Mercer is the weak link in the defence. If anytime there is a defensive mistake its usually always down the right. He's just not a natural right back IMO. Just can't deal with players who run at him.
In contrast he's brilliant coming forwards so to me his natural position would be right wing.
As for today, Dobbie got us out of jail big time. Too many players having a off day.
For all the praise I doubt Alloa will be going 3 nil up by half time away from home in the championship too many times this season.
Fair play to the fans for staying onside when they could have easily turned after we went 3 down.
With our fire power there is always the belief there and it was proven.
Just to add, probably what cost us not winning this game was half time coming at the wrong time when we had them on the ropes. We never really regained the momentum even though we equalised.
Brilliant comeback and entertaining but against Alloa at home it's a disappointing result.
Alloa were only 3-2 ahead at half time.
Sorry, score 3 goals by half time.
Sure the 3 goals all came from the lefthand side (again) Marshall hasn't looked the same player defensivly this season and other teams are targeting this area.
