 |
Introduced in June 2000, this new Albion Club Crest features
the National Wallace Monument sitting proudly on top of
the imposing Abbey Craig rock, with the Ochil Hills in the background.
The crest was launched as part of an initiative at the club to
attract a better local image amongst football supporters. |

| Nickname |
The Albion, The Reds but more recently
The Binos - The Binos has become the most popular nickname amongst
the supporters and the media. Thankfully the match day programme
editor has reminded people of the correct spelling which is
BINOS not Beanos as has been written in many newspapers.
Although Binos is pronounced as you would say beanos |
