The editorial turns back to league duty after the cup exit at Kilbowie, and describes Aberdeen as 'a side that has lost none of its impetus since Ian Porterfield replaced Alex Ferguson' - even after their own cup defeat by Celtic, still one of the best squads in Scotland. Falkirk meanwhile are in the middle of a run of straight league defeats, though Bryan Purdie's goal at Tannadice typified how the Bairns fought with rediscovered heart. Cover picture: Falkirk against Celtic on January 24, with Kenny Ashwood, scorer of the Bairns' only goal that day, trying a long-range effort; the two Celtic 'spectators' are internationalist Paul McStay and under-age internationalist Derek Whyte.
