Warriors stay in the hunt

Stenhousemuir kept up the pressure on Airdrie in the hunt for a Scottish Second Division play-off place with a 2-0 win at Arbroath.

Having already booked their play-off place, the Smokies went a goal behind after 11 minutes thanks to Grant Anderson's 20-yard strike.

Andy Rodgers then applied the finish to Stewart Kean's cross to double the Warriors' lead nine minutes later.

Brown Ferguson almost made it 3-0 before half-time but his 35th-minute free-kick was tipped over the crossbar by Darren Hill.

The best chance of the half for the Red Lichties fell to Gavin Swankie who was unable to beat Alistair Brown with a header from 12 yards out.

Liam Caddis came closest to bringing Paul Sheerin's men back into the game in a drab second-half with a 20-yard lob that went narrowly wide after 65 minutes.
