Marco Negri's Beard 1,423 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Getting battered with batons and most people expect people's reactions to pull a phone out?Don't think so.To be fair, i've seen people take their phone out at road accidents and all kinds. People are shit, a lot of the time. Alas, my point was that there will be evidence from CCTV presumably at Ibrox - should be fairly cut and dry if its as over the top a reaction as it appears to be Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluepeter9 5,167 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I was once like you and thought the Police got it right all the time.But now I reallise they do get things wrong .Quite often too.On a note with regards to this Topic .Police Batons should never be used to hit people on the Head in any circumstances.Police dont get it right all the ime - never said that - they get it right the majority of the time, said that! and also said I doubt they waded in without cause!I also note - NO reference to any troublle last night on the news - surely at least the Big Bad Corporation and The Daily Rhebel would be all over crowd trouble and fighting with the police - and why in this day and age when nearly every one has a camera have no photos or videos of this alledged brutailty appeared or even been hinted at?

tooblue 105 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Can anyone confirm that there are CCTV cameras on the concourses (particularly at the broomie, obv)? Might be a daft question but have never noticed or even thought to look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would be many close by but uninvolved. Perhaps it happened too quickly. Maybe they feared police action if they did so. The police are often unkeen to be filmed.

TravelingWilBEARy 4,319 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Do you know what I find most interesting... its the same anti-traditionalists on here that are quick to blame UB and defending the police ... best thing is... probably not even at the game......Wrong, wrong, wrong.

Although it's interesting that there has been no footage posted, as far as I know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooblue 105 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Anyone else surprised by the lack of any kind of statement from the UB so far? I appreciate they may have to carefully consider any official comment from the group but they're usually pretty quick off the mark. Unless the eight lifted were the editorial team of course...

OceanRain 2,845 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Last night, at our home stadium of Ibrox, we as a group, and fellow supporters including women and children, were subject to savage, unjust brutality at the hands of Strathclyde Police. Currently, we are gathering as much pictures and videos of last night and will be meeting as a group in the next few days to discuss where we go from here. If anyone has any pictures of the police brutality from last night we would be grateful if you could contact the group. We would like to thank the fans who stood with us last night and reiterate the fact that we will continue in our passionate support of Our Club, regardless of intimidation or acts of violence against our members. We will also be releasing a full statement in the coming days regarding last nights events. No Surrender. UB07 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
