Stenhousemuir...................3
Stephen Swift reckons Stenny merited more than a point after battling from behind twice in a six-goal thriller.
The Warriors sit fifth after making it seven points from a possible nine with a goal six minutes from time.
Boss Swift said: “I’m disappointed with the result as we were absolutely first class.”
It was level at the break after Elgin’s Kane Hester saw his opener cancelled
Stirling Albion.....................4
Kai Fotheringham struck twice in an all-action first half at Forthbank as he helped Stirling Albion climb to second spot in the table.
The on-loan Dundee United kid found the net in the fifth minute to get the Binos rolling before Jack Leitch added a second in the 25th minute from a Cammy Clark assist.

Annan....................................2
Tommy Goss scored twice in three second-half minutes to help Annan recover from 2-0 down and earn a draw at home to East Fife.

out by Michael Miller on the stroke of half-time. Stenny went ahead six minutes into the second half through Adam Brown but former Warrior Russell Dingwall levelled immediately.
Hester grabbed his ninth goal of the season with 69 minutes played.

Stranraer...............................1
Stranraer in 31 minutes but that only inspired a quickfire double from the Binos to put the game beyond doubt.
Fotheringham’s superb solo run and finish saw Stirling edge closer to a first win in four games. Clark then got his second assist before the break when he delivered for Dale Carrick to head home as the Binos moved behind Dumbarton, who are 10 points clear.
Forfar..................................2

his own net. Annan found a way back into the game in 72 minutes when Benjamin Luissint’s 25-yard effort broke to the feet of Goss and the striker was able to smash home from 10 yards.
Just three minutes later Goss was in the perfect spot to grab his ninth goal of the campaign, making room for himself and finding the bottom corner to secure a point.
