Annan Athletic chairman Philip Jones correctly predicted his side would win the first 3-1 and has stuck his neck on the line for the second leg as well.

He said: "Without doubt this has been what we have been working towards for years.

"Since we got into the leagues this is the game to get promoted and it would mean everything. It is a lot more effort but this is what we are here for.

"I think we will score and I think we will score first and I think the final score is going to be 2-1."
