Falkirk Football Club is celebrating 150 years of existence with a thrilling comeback against Queen of the South. The match, played on October 11, 1969, at Brockville Park, saw the home team turn a three-goal deficit into a four-goal lead. Falkirk's remarkable recovery was sparked by a penalty kick, which was saved by Queen of the South's keeper, Alan Ball. However, Johnny Graham followed up well to score from the rebound. The goal came just after the half hour mark, and seven minutes later, Jim Johnston hit a Watson cross high into the roof of the net. Two minutes before the interval, Falkirk equalised when Craig Watson headed home a Hoggan corner. The battling Bairns were applauded off the park after a remarkable recovery. In this cracker of a match, few could have predicted that Falkirk would race into a 7-3 lead after the restart. Falkirk took Queens apart and sent their fans wild with delight. The four goals came in this order: 51 minutes - Wilson Hoggan's free kick was played by Roxburgh to set up Graham. Alan Ball almost reached Graham's low ground shot. 4-3 53 minutes - Bobby Robinson scored his first League goal for the Club with a 22-yard scorcher which gave Ball no chance. 5-3 64 minutes - Wilson Hoggan hit a speculative 25 yarder with his left foot which totally deceived the Queen's keeper. 6-3 68 minutes - Jim Johnston headed home an inch-perfect cross from Hoggan. Falkirk had turned a three-goal deficit into a four-goal advantage - no mean feat. All credit to the Dumfries side who battled away and scored twice in the last quarter. Law added goal number four in the 75th minute before substitute McLean added their fifth, one minute before time with a great left foot shot.
