Match Report
In what proved to be their easiest game of the season to date, United continued their winning home form with a thrashing of Alloa Athletic, bouncing back from the 2-0 defeat at Coatbridge one week prior. As woeful as Alloa were, it took United until the 33rd minute to break the ice, with Duncan Hutchison missing a couple of near certainties, before Johnny Hart eventually scored to give the home side a half time lead.
Geordie Henderson resumed the scoring from the penalty spot, scoring United's first penalty in three attempts in recent games, Hutchison and Bain both having missed during the month of October. Adding goals late on were Harry Michie, Jacky Kay and Hutchison.
