  "If I bring another striker in he's got to be better than young Botti Bia-Bi and Scott Shepherd," said Houston.
  "I would be looking for the more experienced type, and another defender would come in handy as well."
  Eighteen-year-old Bia-Bi, a London-born Scot who has progressed through Falkirk's academy, glanced in a fine equalising header against Cowdenbeath on Saturday to ensure Houston's side left Central Park with a point.
  The former Dundee United manager stated in no uncertain terms that he wants to "eradicate" the errors that allowed Cowdenbeath to lead twice in their first Championship game of the season.
  Houston labelled "not picking up runners" as the problem for conceding the opening goal and a "crazy mix-up" as the reason former Bairn Sean Higgins gave the Blue Brazil a second.
  An "exceptional" Rory Loy strike and Bia-Bi's header kept Falkirk on level terms.
  "To score a header like that is not the easiest thing," added Houston. "He put it right in the corner so credit to him.
  "He made an impact when he came on and he might be due a longer run from the start.
  Next up for the Bairns is the visit of Rangers on Friday.
