Falkirk add goals and grit to McGlynn's guile on rapid rise

In the space of a week Falkirk have beaten defending champions Celtic and become the first team to get the better of Hearts in a Scottish Premiership match at Tynecastle in 19 months, scoring a combined seven goals in the process.

The 5-2 success in Edinburgh was their fifth successive victory and takes John McGlynn's side up to third place.

A month ago, the concession of an added time goal to Dundee left them 11th, only a point off the bottom of the table.

"It's striking a balance without getting carried away and not playing it down too much," McGlynn told BBC Scotland.
