Midfielder Finn Yeats insists Falkirk have got their Scottish Cup exit to Dunfermline out of their system as eye Celtic's scalp this weekend.

The 22-year-old says that even though his Bairns side are still "hurting," they want to "have a say" in where the Premiership title ends up.

John McGlynn's side have five games left following the split and can still qualify for Europe if they move up the table.

"You just have to move on. We've got important games coming up and we can have a say in the title race and that's what we want to do," said Yeats.

"We went over it on Monday. Got it out of the system and then just went again as usual, back to training as normal, prepare for Celtic. That's what we've done.

"You don't have time really to dwell on lost games. Yeah, it hurts. It still hurts. It's a derby game that we lost and it's not a good feeling – the boys are hurting.

"But we have moved on and we know that we can have a say in this title race and we want to be involved in it. We don't want to let our season peter out. We want to be right in it.

"We're five points off Hibs so you never know what can happen. If we get a good result this weekend then hopefully that would put us in a good position."
