Chris Templeton fires Forfar to victory over Montrose in Angus derby

Forfar 2 - 0 Montrose

FORFAR secured a comfortable win in the Angus derby against bottom club Montrose at Station Park.

Experienced striker Chris Templeman put the Loons in front shortly after the interval and Martyn Fotheringham added a second in the dying seconds.

Forfar now have to focus on the play-offs after Livingston secured promotion with their draw against Berwick.

Elgin City 0 East Stirlingshire 1

A SUBLIME strike from Stephen McGuire was enough for East Stirlingshire to defeat Elgin at Borough Briggs, a result which confirmed Shire's place in the play-offs.

Albion Rovers 1 Queen's Park 0

CIARAN Donnelly's 56th minute strike gave Albion Rovers a precious victory against fellow play-off hopefuls Queen's Park.

Rovers now trail fourth-placed Queen's Park by a solitary point and, crucially, the Coatbridge side have a game in hand on Queen's and two games in hand on fifth-placed Berwick.

Annan Athletic 3 Stranraer 2

ANNAN kept alive their slender play-off hopes with a 3-2 win over Stranraer at Galabank.

Annan took the lead when Lewis Sloan fired home a superb swerving strike from just outside the box.

The hosts soon doubled their advantage when Brian Gilfillan scored with a well-placed header from David Cox's corner.

Graeme Bell put Annan further ahead when he slotted home Sloan's cut-back two minutes after the break.

But Michael Moore gave Stranraer some hope when his effort took a freakish deflection and looped into the net after an hour.
