Match Preview
Tam the man for Bairns Falkirk have added new striker Tam McManus to their squad for the visit of Queen of the South. Manager Steven Pressley has a clean bill of health as his men attempt to bounce back from their defeat at Dundee a fortnight ago. Pressley said: "It has been a very frustrating period looking to get going again after that defeat. "We were on a great run of three wins and three clean sheets but we have a big game in front of us to get going again. "Queen of the South are a really good side with some dangerous players, so it is a great test for us to start winning again." Queen of the South midfielder Rocco Quinn will be in the squad. Quinn has passed a fitness test ahead of the game and will be joined by captain David Lilley, who can return to league action following a suspension. The only absentees are goalkeeper Roddy McKenzie and striker Sean O'Connor. Manager Kenny Brannigan said: "Our injury list is now the lowest it has been all season so we will travel to Falkirk in good spirits. It is no surprise that better results have come as we built our pool."
Match Report
McManus brace sinks Queens A brace from Tom McManus helped Falkirk on their way to a 3-1 win over 10-man Queen of the South at The Falkirk Stadium. The former Hibernian and Dundee United midfielder opened the scoring in the 15th minute when he converted a Ryan Flynn cross from close range. Queen of the South drew level in the 66th minute when Paul Burns fired into the top corner from 12 yards but McManus scored his second in the 71st minute from close range to put Falkirk back in front. Kenny Deuchar added a third for Falkirk before Carl Finnigan was denied a fourth from the penalty spot. Robert Harris was dismissed for deliberate handball but David Hutton saved the spot-kick.
