BigC Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 There are no police at Hearts games this season. Or last. That means no police either inside or outside the ground. A lot of clubs do this now, saves them money. The only exception are when Celtic or Aberdeen come to Tynie. Or if Hearts got Rangers or Hibs in the cup. The police at Tynie on Saturday would have been cops working local stations (or maybe detailed for the SDL march) who were called because of the fighting. They weren't there for the football. That's simply not true. At low risk Cat B games the police presence is reduced but there is still a match commander in the police box and a number of cops patrolling the surrounding streets.

glastonbury jambo Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 A friend of mine (in his 60s) got caught up in it. He said he got hit on the side of the head as he walked towards the main stand entrance, but managed to get a blow on his assailant before taking refuge in the Tynie Arms as it all kicked off.

the Hearts way Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 You're lucky if it was two minutes at most. I stand corrected then, thanks. So, this ?mass brawl? lasted two minutes, led to one arrest, and apparently consisted of mostly cone throwing. It doesn?t sound that dramatic when read like that.

If I recall correctly I'm sure the clubs only pay for cops inside the stadium. The officers outside are a normal thing for any large gathering whether that is a sports event or a march on Princes Street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnB Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 It?s probably a stretch to call it a ?mass brawl? by the sounds of it. It apparently lasted 5mins. It mainly seems to have been folks throwing cones. No one seems to have gotten hurt thank goodness. Still at a bit of a loss as to where the cops were. I saw something similar a few years ago in a Lucas ice cream shop. Seemingly somebody had asked for a black-man then compounded the mistake by asking for a 69 instead of a 99. Terrible scenes.

Rudolf's Mate Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Not sure how random the attacks were on the Hearts fans as I walked straight through the middle of it on my way into the ground. One of the guys I presume was a Killie fan even stopped his charge up the road to let me pass - then continued to leg it up the road and got involved. Also saw an older Hearts fan leaving his greeting laddie to see if he "needed" to be involved. A shower of welts on both sides. What do you mean by 'not sure how random the attacks were'?

Bigteam Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 i had to leave the match 10 minutes into the second half and when i drove along russell road and got near the Roseburn Bar there were about 20 "casuals" being lined up against the wall by about 30 police officers and 5 meat wagons. It was about 4.30pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomaso Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 One of my pals was a Manager at 'Rock Steady' security. I asked him a few years ago who they got most bother with at the grounds they covered in Scotland - he told me whilst the OF were always trouble due to their numbers, the worst were Kilmarnock fans.

There wasn't a police match commander in the control box on Saturday. Because there weren't any police deployed to the game. There are always police officers assigned to football matches, irrespective of whom the opposition is. However, in many instances the actual number of officers within and around the ground can be very minimal, depending on the risk assessments carried out. This is a fixture which doesn't have a recent history of any problems so chances are there were only a limited number both inside and outside.
