Gretna's caretaker manager Mick Wadsworth was delighted to see his club's traumatic season end on a high note with a 1-0 win over Hearts.

With the club's future still in major doubt due to financial problems, long-serving Gavin Skelton netted a last-gasp winner against the Jambos at Fir Park.

Wadsworth said: "It was a fairytale finish and good things happen to good people.

"If anything was going to happen and we were going to go out with a bang, then that guy deserves it, Gavin Skelton.

"Seven years he has served this club from the Unibond League onwards.

"It's funny, I remember him signing for me at Carlisle when he was a 14-year-old. I'm so pleased for him because he's a great guy.

"With this great uncertainty now for the next few days, it's a bit of joy."
