Maybe drop a scout and take an extra goblin?

If I take a scout away and add a goblin I have 51 models, which is over the limit?

okay, can you tell give me any recommendation on which 'Wraith it should be? and how I boost 'em etc?

Well, if you take a normal wraith (regular, not named) they give you a basic model with not too much might will and fate. For 5points you can boost one of these three things with 1 each time. There is a maximum though.

The named Wraiths don't give you that option. You just get what they give you in the profile, but they are fully boosted I think

I don't have any experience with wraiths of any kind, but I'm planning on getting the Shadow Lord to protect my Wargs/Berserkers/Isengard Troll/... There is an article on the GW-website about the nine wraiths, and also an article about some of the stats/point costs of some named wraiths.

Thanks mate, i'll check it out. I think i'll just go with an unnamed Ringwraith, with it being my first army I don't think I need a 'big name' Ringwraith.

So it's:

1x Lurtz
1x Ringwraith
1x Cave Troll
23x Golbins
24 x Uruk-hai Scouts

Ok, now you have exactly 50models, but you don't have a leader for the Moria side

Durburz isn't allowed, is a goblin captain?

If so I could cut down to 24 Uruk-hai Scouts but say 18-20 Goblins?

I don't play Moria myself, but I do think that a normal captain is allowed.

Seems like he'd be the most fitting choice as leader, considering they don't have much heroes.

Probably

Would it be possible if you told me everyone who can ally with Isengard and Goblins, only if it doesn't take up much of your time!

I'm not sure wether I can tell you

If someone can maybe tell me if I can say that? If I can, I'll certainly do it

I'm sorry, I don't understand, why can't you tell me? Does it break a rule or do you just not know?

Sorry, I confuse easily.

Well, if there weren't any rules, we could post the rulebook online

Sadly enough, there are rules and we can't tell all the Rules of the Games. I'm not sure wether I can tell this to you, since it is in the LoME book. If everybody would do this, GW would sell less copies of their book, and they don't want that. I don't know what I can tell and what I can't

Oh well, I don't want you going out and getting into trouble for me.

Also the rules about allying are very specific, there are multiple isengard lists and multiple goblin lists, all of which have different allies, use an online army builder, there is a popular one which is posted all over this site:D

I googled it and found the Lone Wolf Productions Army Builder. Is this the correct one?

EDIT: I used it and I don't have a license so I can only chose three units? :S
