Douglas Hill (top) scored the winner and sealed promotion for Inverness

Inverness clinched promotion to the Scottish Premier League after Dundee lost to Raith Rovers at Stark's Park.

Dundee needed a win to keep their faint title hopes alive but Douglas Hill scored the only goal of the game.

Chances were few and far between in a drab first half as Dundee struggled to create anything of note.

Hill headed home Grant Murray's cross and 49-year-old goalkeeper Bobby Geddes, a first half substitute for Dundee, produced some impressive saves.
