We deserved nothing says Falkirk co-boss David McCracken after East Fife defeat
The Bairns were second best for most of the afternoon and lost 2-1 as the Fifers maintained their unbeaten run of home league games this season.
Despite the defeat, Falkirk remain top of League 1 but McCracken says they must not take that position for granted and work even harder to stay there.

"Had we got an equaliser I think it would have been unfair on East Fife because they worked hard on their shape, created opportunities and we only had about ten minutes at the start of the second half where we moved the ball the way we were supposed to.
"Nothing is done yet, there’s loads of games to play and loads of points to be won and lost.
"There’s maybe a few feeling comfortable that we are top of the league but they need to remember what we did to get there.

"There’s a lot of players, an ourselves as managers, who need to do better because teams are setting up to be hard to break down.”
