Albion Rovers 3-0 E Stirlingshire

Marc Pollock was on target as Albion moved to the top of Division Three on goal difference with a comfortable win.

Pollock broke the deadlock after 13 minutes when he fired home Alan Reid's cross and Albion doubled their lead through David McFarlane's drive.

Striker McFarlane scored his second just before half time with a low shot under goalkeeper Jamie Barclay.

East Stirlingshire pressed but were unable to reduce the deficit and Paul Walker almost made it four late on.
