deco19761 1,006 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 On the note with the jailed bear. He was expecting a bit more to be honest so he sees it as a result. So let's not get too downtrodden on it all. Yeah we agree that bears who entered the field of play done so for whatever reason and at the moment it seems to be the gers fans who are beating the brunt of this media frenzy ans that is something that will hopefully work its way out. I am not sure will the lift anyone who has ran onto the park or are they in particular looking for those who acted in an agressive manner and sought to enter a violent altercation with opposing fans. ?? Cos if they are going to lift everyone for going on the field of play they will need to arrest probably 3000 people at least. Not sure that will happen but who knows.

pcbear 10,913 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 No Hibs fans on the park goading = no drama. If the police and stewards had done their job with anything other than total incompetence there would have been none of this, We were shit on the day and Hibs deserved the victory, our fans would have stayed and applauded the team as they received the losers medals then headed home pissed off but hey that's football, new signings and new season ahead in the SPL looking forward. If the Hibs fans had have stayed in their seats they would have had a glorious half hour in the ground all to themselves celebrating a rare cup final win, they seen nothing so they fucked it for themselves as well thanks to the retards on the park. I don't know how many man hours have been involved in this police/courts etc but I bet its way into the 10's of thousands, and the people at the top responsible for the organisation of the event are prob thinking they done as much as they can to prevent this, the reality is that the shambles that they call organisation was a mess, along with the lying coppers ( Rangers fans prevented us getting swiftly to the ground) they are the people that should be on trial. How this can get turned on its head to lump nigh on the full blame onto Rangers defies logic. The club statement at the time was superb it summed the events up in a nutshell, the latest one was an absolute joke. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that, but are his more 'serious previous' not now spent? Almost certain that those 20 offences mentioned are mostly minor stuff and not 'football related' - hence why they weren't mentioned during the sheriffs summing up. At the end of the day, he got less than he was expecting and doing it won't bother him. It's shite that he was jailed, but it could have been worse...

Dutchy 1,200 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 16 hours ago, Jimbeamjunior said: getting the jail shouldnt be our main concern here, the guy is known to the authorities 20 times previously so chances are he was going down, its more the way that the media just couldnt wait to announce this, you can bet any hibs fan given the jail will be the smallest news report if there even is one In no way am I saying that he didn't deserve going to jail, it's just frustration at the, as you point out, the perceived opinion of Rangers supporters. The media can affect the opinions of judges as well as us ordinary mortals. In fact. I go further, they are meant to be independent but anyone that believes they're not influenced by politicians and/or religious leaders is fooling themselves. Anyway, it's done now and you can bet the campaign to eradicate any other religion in Scotland other than catholisim will continue. Personally, I'd like to see the end, or at least fading out of all religion, but that's not going to happen anytime soon. The SNP had the perfect opportunity to make this country secular during all the debates that took place prior to the nasty football act came in and labour are highly unlikely to do it either.

They used to draft them down to Blackpool at the Glasgow Fair weekend in the 60's and early 70's because the English plod couldn't handle the Glesga punters in full flow, this in fact helped calm any real trouble as they knew how to handle the situation!
