However, the veteran centre-half insists three points is all that will be on his mind come 3pm on Saturday when the two clubs go head to head.[LNB]Accies currently enjoy a six-point lead over second-bottom Bairns following a recent fruitful period that saw them win six successive matches in all competition.[LNB]Bullen got to know Reid after the pair sat their A-license coaching badges together at Largs and he insists the Hamilton manager deserves credit for Hamilton's contribution to the top flight.[LNB]He said: "Billy has got his way of playing football, at the beginning of the season he liked to get the ball down.[LNB]"Initially they got some good results and then teams started to figure them out a little bit and Billy realised that, they hit a bit of a lull.[LNB]"He changed their style a bit, it is a little bit more direct and a little bit more with pressure and they went on a great run and he rightly got manager of the month in January.[LNB]"Credit to the manager for adapting his style of play to get the right results.[LNB]"Hamilton have jumped up the league but there are still five or six teams within biting distance."[LNB]Bullen admits he is looking forward to catching up with Reid before the game.[LNB]He added: "I really rate Billy Reid, we did our A-license together down at Largs and he has got some good ideas and belief in his players so it will be a tough game.[LNB]"Billy was flying high at the top of the first division and looking to get promotion and he has gone on and done a great job so full credit to the man.[LNB]"I keep in touch now and again, I know him to speak to. "I did a project on Scottish football as part of a university course so I spoke to Billy about that as well.[LNB]"I am delighted for the man, he has done really really well.[LNB]"I know him quite well and I have a lot of respect for him but we will be doing our damnedest to suck them back down to the bottom of the table on Saturday."[LNB][LNB] Falkirk v Hamilton.
