Stirling chalked up their first competitive victory this season with a fine 2-0 away win over Stenhousemuir at Ochilview.

Veteran John Miller and Graeme Donald headed the second-half goals as the home side suffered their first home league defeat of the campaign.

Stenhousemuir had the better of a dull first half and Barry Donald and Colin McKinnon both went close with efforts as Albion struggled to get going.

The Warriors started brightly in the second half but Albion then started to take control and in the 57th minute they opened the scoring.

James Gardner did well on the left-hand side and his cross was headed home by ex-Hearts midfielder Miller.

And the away side doubled their advantage nine minutes later when Gardner again swung the ball into the home penalty area and on this occasion Donald rose above the defence to lob his header home.

Stenhousemuir tried to get back into the match and David Lorimer and Isaac English both had good chances towards the end but Stirling keeper Chris Reid was having a good day and once again he defied the home side.
