Storm damage at Raydale Park forced in-form Gretna to switch their game with Gala Fairydean Rovers to Annan’s Galabank.

And they made themselves at home by racing into a two goal lead inside 10 minutes with Scott Milligan scoring his 16th of the season and Brandon Longcake adding the second.

Adam Main fired home Gretna’s third before the break.

Manager Rome said: “It was important we got the game on today and even more important to keep our winning run going.

“We are doing really well going forward but Gala really came at us in the second half and I thought we were excellent in defence. They stretched us at times but we defended well.

“We’re still in there - Edinburgh City have a few games in hand but we’ll keep going and see what happens.” Dean McColm scored Gala’s consolation just before the hour.

Edinburgh City’s match at neighbours Edinburgh University was a late casualty due to the snow.

Vale of Leithen’s game at Whitehill Welfare and Selkirk’s clash with Dalbeattie Star were also postponed.

But East Kilbride stretched their unbeaten run to eight games with a 4-0 win over bottom side Threave Rovers at Meadow Park.

Portugese striker Joao Victoria opened the scoring for Billy Ogilvie’s team after half an hour.

Second half strikes from Liam Gormley, Bernard Coll and Craig McLeish rounded off a good afternoon for third-placed Kilby.

Ogilvie said: “We are on a good run just now but I’m even more pleased that we’ve managed five clean sheets in a row. All we can do is keep winning and hope the teams above us don’t.” Defending champions Spartans lost further ground in the title race as they slumped to a 3-0 defeat to BSC Glasgow at Ainslie Park.

Ross McKinnon edged the visitors in front of the stroke of half time.

Garry Graham piled on the misery with a second on 50 minutes before Tony Wallace added a third in the final minute.

The victory takes Ian King’s team up to ninth.

In the Lowland League Cup Stirling University beat Preston Athletic 3-2 at Forthbank. The home side’s goals came from Jack Sutherland and a Jeff Kessie double.
