Annan slumped to a 3-1 defeat at relegated Dumbarton, confirming their place in William Hill League One relegation play-offs.

Ryan Blair put the home side ahead before half-time, with Annan seeing defender Scott Hooper sent off soon after the restart for a second caution.

Although Tommy Goss equalised on the hour, goals from Tony Wallace and James Hilton settled matters.

At the other end of the table, Cove Rangers confirmed their play in the promotion play-offs after a 2-2 draw with Kelty Hearts at Balmoral Stadium.

Goals from Adam Emslie and Mitch Megginson, from the spot, had seemingly put Rangers in control, only for the visitors to hit back with two goals in the space of seven minutes just after the hour from Craig Johnston and Ross Cunningham.

Queen of South saw off play-off rivals Stenhousemuir 2-0 at Palmerston Park to also make sure of their top-four spot.

Inverness beat champions Arbroath 3-0, which mathematically secured their place in League One next season.

Alloa came from behind to beat Montrose 2-1 with a late goal from Luke Rankin, which put them above Stenhousemuir into fourth place.

Peterhead secured the League Two title with a 1-0 win over promotion rivals East Fife at Balmoor Stadium.

Peter Pawlett’s goal in the 29th minute proved enough for the win, which left the home side four points clear.

Bonnyrigg Rose kept alive their hopes of staying up with a dramatic late 2-1 win over Spartans.

Murray Aiken had put Rose ahead with 15 minutes left, only for Blair Henderson to level things up.

Aaron Arnott, though, struck in stoppage time to leave Rose two points behind Forfar, who battled to a goalless draw at third-placed Edinburgh City.

Play-off hopefuls Elgin beat Stranraer 3-0 and Clyde ran out 4-1 winner at Stirling.
