The Falkirk fans throughout the game were excellent, giving Yogi Hughes men vociferous, vocal backing in the Scottish Cup semi final, in the Kincardine Bridge Derby. Here, the fans break into club anthem, Amarillo (NB this was a Falkirk anthem for over 10 years prior to Tony Christie re-released the song for Comic Relief). This was a historic day for Falkirk FC as it confirmed that for the first time in the club's history, Falkirk will be playing European football, something that has been long-overdue and missed out on so closely so many times. The game finished 2-0 and fittingly, the two goalscorers were two local under-21s who graduated through the Falkirk Academy - Tam Scobbie and Scott Arfield.
