Forfar relegated as Albion edge five-goal thriller

Albion won a topsy-turvy encounter 3-2 to keep their play-off hopes alive and condemn opponents Forfar to relegation.
Beginning the day two points adrift of Brechin at the bottom, Forfar needed to help themselves and they made a dream start when Danny Denholm was sent through one-on-one against home keeper Ross Stewart to open the scoring inside 50 seconds.
But the lead lasted just six minutes before a defensive mix-up gifted Ally Love a close-range equaliser - and he then turned provider as Scott McBride headed Albion in front, still inside the opening 20 minutes.
Forfar levelled on the hour mark as Kyle Turnbull fouled Denholm in the box and Andy Ryan tucked away the penalty.
But Ross Stewart's brilliant save from Scott Martin kept Albion on terms and though Love missed from close range, he then provided the corner for Michael Dunlop to head the winner.
The result leaves Albion alongside Airdrie on 46 points, two behind fourth-placed Stranraer with one game to go.
