Forfar held as Arbroath go top

It's all change at the top of Ladbrokes League 2 going into the final weekend of the season.

It's all change at the top of Ladbrokes League 2 going into the final weekend of the season.

Long-time leaders Forfar Athletic were held to a 1-1 draw away to bottom club Cowdenbeath. Danny Denholm cancelled out Robbie Buchanan's opener, after Shaun Rutherford had been sent off, but the Loons couldn't conjure up a winner.

That allowed Arbroath to go top thanks to a 3-2 win over Elgin City at Gayfield. Ryan McCord grabbed a hat-trick for the Red Lichties, with Jamie Reid – who was later sent off –  and Jass Sukar (own goal) netting for the visitors.

Annan booked their play-off place in style by thrashing Montrose 5-1 at Galabank. Rabin Omar, Barry Cuddihy, Steven Swinglehurst and Raffi Krissian all scored in the first 17 minutes and Montrose's day got worse when Iain Campbell saw red. Peter Weatherson added a fifth before Kerr Hay pulled one back.

Clyde and Berwick Rangers still aren't safe after a 1-1 draw at Broadwood. David Gormley's penalty broke the deadlock but Jonny Fairbairn equalised.

Derek Riordan scored in the last minute as Edinburgh City edged out Stirling Albion in their final match at Meadowbank Stadium.
