TravelingWilBEARy 4,319 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 would actually love it if this was true for the simple fact that maybe it takes something like this for the government and rangers to realise what a police state this is regarding football fans. fucking joke, id love to batter the police cunts with their own battons.Think before you post.

Phil 1,150 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 If this is true that the police blocked the exits....Match commander should be in the dock for reckless endangerment.Scotish LawReckless endangerment: A person commits the crime of reckless endangerment if the person recklessly engages in conduct which creates a substantial risk of serious physical injury to another person. “Reckless” conduct is conduct that exhibits a culpable disregard of foreseeable consequences to others from the act or omission involved. The accused need not intentionally cause a resulting harm or know that his conduct is substantially certain to cause that result. The ultimate question is whether, under all the circumstances, theaccessed's conduct was of that heedless nature that made it actually or imminently dangerous to the rights or safety of others. http://www.scotland.gov.ukBingo This is what I was thinking when I first heard about this. Surely fire regulations must have been broken as well.Fucking disgrace if even part of any of this is true. Something's going to snap soon with this treatment.

8watp8 254 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Funny how the SCUM @ Saville Dome don't have any of the hassle Rangers fans get @ home games fuckin joke.ofcourse they do mate, silly comment. anyone in a scottish football ground that isn't content on sitting on his hands politely clapping is seen as dangerous and are heavily stewarded and policed. welcome to salmonds scotland. police state, and people want the crowds back at grounds ha ha.

TravelingWilBEARy 4,319 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I was in CR4 but it looked like the police/stewards went way over the top. Not surprised in the least. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
8watp8 254 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Think before you post.I genuinely do, i sincerely hope people aren't seriously hurt but the sad thing is it takes something serious like this to actually be noticed and for the people to demand a change in scotland becoming a police state. Nothing will change unless something goes over the top and is caught on camera. just my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blumhoilann 6,712 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Question,,,What are the police at football matches for?Surely it's to safeguard the innocent in the event of trouble or to help out in the event of emergency.With very small away support travelling to Ibrox,what are the chances of any trouble? NIL I would say.This 'policing' is coating Rangers money to boot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

50ShadesofBlue 667 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Heard Union Bears over reacted to someone being pulled out. Started to run up/walk out and the Polis panicked and started swinging batons at people. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ger for life 199 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Well we now live in the Orwellian state where our everyday actions are overseen by CCTV - all in the name of safety and security you understand! That's why they're not called speed cameras anymore but "safety" cameras.My advice to anyone who felt he/she was unjustly treated by the police tonight - and indeed at any other game at Ibrox is to lodge an official complaint via legal assistance if required.All incidents within the ground and its immediate parameters will be covered by CCTV and the footage should show any evidence of police over-reaction.The police - and indeed the Club - utilise this medium to identify any person causing unrest within the stadium.Might also be worth a call to the Head of Matchday Operations at The Stadium.

Popular Post God save charles green 73 Posted December 18, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted December 18, 2012 I,m a 53 year old man and have stood in the old Copland Road end and the East Enclosure over the years and been involved in some magnificent atmospheres at many a Rangers game home and away.I would just like to say that thanks to the young bears of the BO and UB that we actually have an atmosphere inside Ibrox these days so keep it up lads as you often remind me of my youth going along to games with the mates and singing our hearts out for the Rangers. WIN, LOSE OR DRAW that the Glasgow Rangers Story.God bless you all lads for you are the people.

justiston 91 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I look forward to seeing a statement from both TBO & UB to Strathclyde Police and Rangers.On note of "secterarian songs" I cannot deny that a certain line was sang from "Super Rangers", and perhaps that is all the police were waiting for the make a point.I wouldn't be surprised if trouble started when one or two got lifted, an others challenged, and that escalated to trouble. If I was there, I would no doubt be looking for answers - and with police you always get the "we're in charge / none your business" and that escalates things more.Let's hope for a detailed response from both fan groups, and hopefully something from Rangers on this.

Gaz52 11,837 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I was sitting in BF1 and will be writing an official complaint to Strathclyde Police.They assaulted innocent fans when the 2nd goal went it, that's where it all went wrong.Nothing to do with 'Sectarian Singing'Brute-force was used on people well under the age of 16Surrounded a van outside the game as if Ted Bundy was inside, I asked the Policeman very nicely "Is there someone dangerous in there.. Or just a Rangers fan" He threatened to arrest me, I asked him arrest me for what? He didn't have a responseFace it, we're treated as guilty people as soon as we step foot in BF1. I for one won't back down to them as I know my rights and so should everyone else bankieblue and baxters11 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TravelingWilBEARy 4,319 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 The police still seem to be predisposed to the notion that all football fans are potentially violent scum who deserve everything they get. They don't seem to have moved on much since Hillsborough. Skelf, Conesoot, willieboyrfc and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
