Falkirk could face an SFA rap after sections of their support threw fake eyeballs onto the pitch in a sickening taunt to Dunfermline's Dean Shiels.

The Pars ran out 2-0 derby winners over their rivals at East End Park on Tuesday with goals from Nicky Clark and Declan McManus.

But the Championship clash was marred by away fans singling out the former Rangers star over his missing eye, launching the objects from the stand.

Shiels - who started the match - saluted the home crowd and embraced manager Allan Johnston at the final whistle.

It's the second time controversy has emerged from the fixture this season after Bairns midfielder Kevin O'Hara was hit with an eight-match ban in November for mocking Shiels' visual impairment.

O'Hara's teammate Joe McKee received a four-match rap in December for the same charge of "excessive misconduct".

The SFA found the pair guilty of making malicious comments towards the Dunfermline man, who had his right eye removed in 2006 after being involved in a domestic accident as a child.
