Arbroath hammered Queen's Park in the first leg of their Scottish First Division play-off semi-final.

Robert Ross broke the deadlock from close range and the visitors extended their league when James Redman headed home Ian Nimmo's corner.

Nimmo then got on the scoresheet when his header found the net from Callum Booth's centre.

The Spiders failed to deal with another set-piece as Ewan Moyes nodded in the fourth for the rampant visitors.
