Dunfermline secured an immediate return to the Scottish Championship by clinching the League 1 title with a barnstorming victory over Queen of the South.

Kane Ritchie-Hosler and Matthew Todd carved out a strong half-time lead, before the floodgates opened further at a jubilant East End Park.

Craig Wighton banged in a double before Kevin O'Hara completed the rout.

James McPake's men sit 13 points above Falkirk with three games to play.

Queens sit fifth, with their own promotion hopes in doubt with the gap to Alloa Athletic in fourth now six points.
