You got the correct score and winners m8 cheers

Onto the aftermath of the game.

First up, the officials. How the ~~~~ can you not even book a player for assault once but miss it a second time, that was an abysmal 90mins of refereeing

Started off slowly and probably deserved to go 1-0 down at half time.

The first assault was the Dundee left-back going through and hospitalising a 17yr old, nothing short of disgraceful

The 2nd assault was on our main striker and he had his head split open as well. patched up and took ages for the ref to call him back on as well!

That 2nd assault changed the game as it was one-sided from then on. The players looked like they had just had enough of the treatment from both officials and Dundee players so transformed and the grit between their teeth, it was wave after wave of attack and the eventual equaliser came.

With 15mins to go, a through ball and our other striker latched onto it to put it past the 'keepers near post. Get ~~~~in in there!

5mins to go and a challenge with their 'keeper, ball is loose, cross comes in and boom! a bullet header for the winner and the stands go mental!

Yep. Your team could have been 2 or 3-0 up with half an hour to go. Our 'keeper kept us in it as we just didn't get going until around the 60min mark but what a last half hour though

I thought your team played a hell of a lot better than the last time when we beat you's in the cup last month though. This league is going to be even tighter than last year as there's only 6pts separating top from bottom so far.

If Falkirk had lost, we would be 2nd bottom instead of joint 2nd top and Dundee would be in 2nd place. Good luck for the season apart from against us

[derry1962]

ha ha yeh use too pal all the best, best team win cum may, hope its the dee

[Miklo]

D-Day in the cup against Rangers tonight

I don't say this too often but, I hope we pump them tonight

In reality, it'll probably be a gubbing in double figures though going by Sundays game!

Well done Falkirk deserved to win. Rangers didnt turn up and McCulloch is an imposter as a footballer.

[mattybhoy]

I know all about teams not turning up...

Well done Falkirk & Elvis, great result with all the kids you had playing as well.

& with Hertz going out as well it turned out to be a good night.

Draw for QF of league Cup;-

St Mirren v Ayr United
Dundee United v Falkirk
Hibernian v Celtic
Kilmarnock v East Fife

Ties are due to be played on Tuesday, October 25 and Wednesday, October 26

Not a great draw for you guys, or any of the giant killing teams. What or the odds on Ayr, East Fife and you guys missing each other and all getting away ties to SPL clubs?

For such a young squad makes it even more remarkable. It's probably the youngest team i've ever seen
