Capturing video evidence and raiding homes after the event is a proven technique. How many coppers do you think would be needed to plough into 2000 football fans to make 1 arrest?

How many coppers do you think would be needed to plough into 2000 football fans to make 1 arrest? Different if life is in danger. Exactly Back in the 70s and 80s I remember 20 or 30 police trying to enter The Shed at Tynecastle and also at other places like Firhill, Tannadice or Rugby Park to arrest the occasional Hearts supporting wrong doer and it never ending well......"police hat frisbee" anyone? and very few fans, if anyone ever seemed to get lifted.

Seymour M Hersh Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I wonder if they (Police Strathclyde) will be as pro-active before Sundays game? Perhaps they don't have the man-power for thousands of dawn raids around Scotland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tasavallan Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I can assure you fans got lifted Those were the days when to join the police you had to be of a minimum height. TV coverage from Ibrox showed a front line of women constables probably not more than 5ft tall. These days due to under-manning the police rely on video evidence to identify the hooligans on a one-by-one basis rather than wading into the group. .

They seem ok about going into peaceful demonstrations and corralling 100's for hours, battering people walking away and denying it, but can't go into a football crowd who are attacking stewards or food kiosks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NRJ1966 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I can assure you fans got lifted Oh I know, but it was never really in the numbers that I would have thought justified the police wading in. I remember one particular game against Motherwell in the old 1st Division when about 20 PCs entered the shed to catch a coin thrower and pulled out one youngish teenager and three of their fairly battered and bruised colleagues who'd got trapped against the wall of the toilets and couldn't get out easily....I can see why they stopped doing it although in these days of seated grounds you would think it would be easier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
