LEADERS Cowdenbeath suffered their second successive defeat when they lost 1-0 away to Berwick Rangers.
Steven Bonar scored the winner in the second half when he shot home via a post to leave Central Park manager Danny Lennon rueing a stack of missed chances, with Paul McQuade identified as the main culprit.
However, second-placed Stenhousemuir fail
ed to take advantage as they slumped 4-1 at home to East Stirling, who are now in title contention themselves. Craig Donaldson put Shire ahead before Kevin Motion equalised. A double from Brian Graham before half-time and a second-half free-kick from Jamie Stevenson wrapped things up.
Dumbarton strengthened their hold on a play-off place when a Patrick Boyle goal gave them a 1-0 win at home to Albion Rovers.
Eighth-placed Forfar won 3-1 at Montrose and may yet still emerge as play-off contenders, especially if they beat Cowdenbeath tomorrow night. A Ross Campbell double and a Stephen McInally strike sealed the win.
Annan thumped bottom side Elgin City 6-0, with Jamie Dunbar and Graeme Bell hitting doubles and Mike Jack and Phil Storey also on target. City goalkeeper Andy McNulty was sent off after 28 minutes.
