Falkirk coach John Hughes has admitted that midfielder Steven Thompson deserved his red card.

He told BBC sport that: "If you raise your hands, you get sent off, it is as simple as that, but I thought the referee got conned a bit today. "

He also went on to explain:  "Their forwards were bumping into my central defenders and they got away with it.

"They played the game the right way and I want my players to do that."
