E Stirlingshire 3-0 Albion Rovers

East Stirlingshire deservedly recorded their first win since January as Albion Rovers were reduced to nine men in a controversial game at Firs Park.

Rovers players insisted that Craig Donaldson had handled in the run-up to the corner from which Michael Bolochoweckyj scored after the break.

Willy Martin was sent off for foul and abusive language and Alan Benton received his second yellow card.

Stephen Oates headed home the second and Paul McBride fired in the third.
