Midfielder Burton O'Brien and defenders Kyle McAusland and Dougie Hill have signed for Alloa Athletic.

The 34-year-old O'Brien and 30-year-old Hill arrive from Scottish Championship rivals Livingston and Raith Rovers respectively.

McAusland had spent the second half of the season with Dunfermline Athletic in League Two after leaving Rangers.

The 22-year-old played 14 times for the Pars having had loan spells with Ayr United and Brechin City.

O'Brien began his career with St Mirren and was sold to Blackburn Rovers only to return to the Buddies on loan and then move to Livingston, Sheffield Wednesday and Falkirk.

The former Scotland Under-21 international made 37 appearances last season in his second spell at Almondvale and captained the side to victory in the Petrofac Training Cup final.

Hill, who also previously played for Cowdenbeath, only made 12 appearances last season and returns for a third spell at Recreation Park.
