Item 1. 
Security and Issuer

On January 18, 2011, Alliance Bancorp, Inc. of Pennsylvania, a Pennsylvania corporation (“Alliance Bancorp” or the “Company”), completed the “second-step” conversion of Alliance Bank (the “Bank”) from the mutual holding company structure to the stock holding company structure (the “Conversion”) pursuant to a Plan of Conversion and Reorganization.  Upon completion of the Conversion, Alliance Bancorp became the holding company for the Bank and owns all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Bank’s common stock.  In connection with the Conversion, among other things, shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Alliance Bancorp (“Common Stock”) were issued in exchange for the outstanding shares of common stock of the former federally chartered mid-tier holding company for the Bank, which also was known as Alliance Bancorp, Inc. of Pennsylvania (the “Mid-Tier Holding Company”), held by the “public” shareholders of the Mid-Tier Holding Company (all shareholders except Alliance Mutual Holding Company).  Each share of common stock of the Mid-Tier Holding Company was converted into the right to receive 0.8200 shares of Alliance Bancorp Common Stock in the Conversion.
 
The initial Schedule 13D, dated April 25, 2007, was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 4, 2007 (the “Initial Schedule 13D”) and related to the Common Stock of the Mid-Tier Holding Company.  Amendment No. 1 to the Initial Schedule 13D, dated July 16, 2007, was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 6, 2007 and related to the Common Stock of the Mid-Tier Holding Company.  Amendment No. 2 to the Initial Schedule 13D, dated October 16, 2007, was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 18, 2007 and related to the Common Stock of the Mid-Tier Holding Company.  Amendment No. 3 to the Initial Schedule 13D, dated April 25, 2008, was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 30, 2008 and related to the Common Stock of the Mid-Tier Holding Company.  Amendment No. 4 to the Initial Schedule 13D dated December 15, 2009 was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 15, 2009 and related to the Common Stock of the Mid-Tier Holding Company and related to the Common Stock of the Mid-Tier Holding Company.
 
This amendment No. 5 to the Initial Schedule 13D (this “Amended Schedule 13D”) is being filed, among other things, to reflect the conversion of all of the Common Stock of the Mid-Tier Holding Company held by the reporting persons at the time of the Conversion into shares of Common Stock of Alliance Bancorp, and to reflect the reporting persons’ current holdings of the Common Stock of Alliance Bancorp.  This Amended Schedule 13D also reflects the fact that the Doris Lashley Testamentary Trust no longer beneficially owns shares of Common Stock, resulting in said Trust and Beth Lashley, as trustee of the Doris Lashley Testamentary Trust, no loner being reporting persons.  The address of the principal executive offices of the Company is 541 Lawrence Road, Broomall, PA 19008.
 
Item 2. 
Identity and Background

This Amended Schedule 13D is being filed jointly by the parties identified below.  All of the filers of this Amended Schedule 13D are collectively the “PL Capital Group.”  The joint filing agreement of the members of the PL Capital Group is attached to this Amended Schedule 13D.

Item 4. 
Purpose of Transaction

The PL Capital Group owns 521,040 shares or 9.5% of the Company, based upon the Company’s aggregate outstanding 5,474,710 shares as reported in a Form 8-K filed on January 18, 2011.

PL Capital Group’s intent is to influence the policies of the Company and assert PL Capital’s shareholder’s rights, with a goal of maximizing the long term value of the Common Stock.

Members of the PL Capital Group may make further purchases of shares of Common Stock, although the PL Capital Group has no present intention of increasing PL Capital Group’s aggregate holdings above 9.99% of the Company’s aggregate outstanding Common Stock.  Members of the PL Capital Group may dispose of any or all the shares of Common Stock held by them.
 
To the extent the actions described herein may be deemed to constitute influencing, or seeking to influence, the control of the Company for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the regulations thereunder, the PL Capital Group has such a purpose.  Except as noted in this Schedule 13D, no member of the PL Capital Group currently has any plans or proposals, which relate to, or would result in, any change in control of the Company or any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (b) through (j), inclusive of Item (4) of Schedule 13D.  Such individuals may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their positions and formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.
 
Item 5. 
Interest in Securities of the Company

The percentages used in this Amended Schedule 13D are calculated based upon the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as of January 18, 2011, as reported in the Company’s Form 8-K filed on January 18, 2011.  In this Form 8-K, the Company reported 5,474,710 outstanding shares of Common Stock.
