Gordon Wylde’s newly promoted side produced a below-par performance as they went down to a defeat which leaves them second in the table with nine points from four games, one point adrift of leaders Dalkeith Thistle who have also played four matches.

Meanwhile, Syngenta announced this week that last year's club captain David McKay, a massive part of the promotion-winning campaign, has agreed a move to East Stirlingshire in the Scottish Lowland Football League.

This Saturday, Syngenta visit fifth placed Stirling University in the league with kick-off at 2.30pm.
