Delighted Stirling Albion gaffer Darren Young admitted to being full of nerves as he took his spot in the stand on Saturday – but had the perfect view as his side romped to a memorable 6-0 win over league leaders Dumbarton.
The manager was forced to bite his fingernails amongst the crowd after being sent off last week at East Fife but was full of praise for a performance he described as the best in his time at the club as the Binos cut the gap to the Sons at the League 2 summit to two points.
Another fast start saw the home side three up inside 22 minutes with goals from Robert Thomson, Paul McLean and Dale Carrick.
Ross McGeachie added a fourth before half time to send the noisy home fans into raptures – and they kept up the pressure after the break to add a pair of rare goals from Kyle Banner and put the gloss on a thoroughly dominant display.
