Ridiculous.

[JimBHibees]

Suppose possible might be intelligence other clubs thugs intent on trouble.

What are the Edinburgh drinking bylaws? Thought you were able to drink in streets unlike Glasgow

[Hibs90]

More aimed at Celtc fans tbh

[BH Hibs]

I thought the same but if a visitor strays into our stands then there could potentially be trouble.

Yes might be more travel through without tickets maybe watching in pubs.

Violence warning headline is a joke though.

Ever since we have been governed by Police Scotland as a whole they have turned into a complete farce, their handling of Leith Walk after the cup final when the boy in charge told officers to get their batons out was the icing on the cake for me, people were enjoying themlseves without a hint of bother and it was them that soured the mood and were looking for trouble

I think since Police Glasgow started running the show they have clamped doan on folk having a beer in the street, park or wherever in Edinburgh.

"When any stand reaches capacity the turnstiles will be closed - no one else will be permitted entry."

Where do they get this stuff from?

Outside the harp and castle , couldn't believe it when they got their batons out.

Aye that's where I was too, the policeman I spoke to about it was apologetic about it all and clearly realised it was a mistake but it had come from "above" and they had to obey

[snooky]

The polis issue this empty warning everytime the OF come to town. The last time I was at a Hibs v Celtc game, a group of visitrs let off one of those really big banger things at the London Road junction and the Plod just stood by and did SFA.

Knocked it up at the lodge meeting last night - Police Glasgow Loyal Govan lodge, probably got the research done by klub 1872

PCs on the street were embarrassed about some of the stuff they were ordered to do that weekend.

Think the heid yins were worried a weekend of drinking amongst football fans might pass off peacefully so wanted to mix things up a bit.

Exactly, we all give the police a hard time but usually I can see where they are coming from on most issues. But ever since we've been run the same way they would run Glasgow I've seen a real change, I'm sure your average policeman would rather no have the hassles of the pish they are being asked to do from on high as well

If any Celtic fan is lucky enough to secure a Hibs ticket, they should know the score - if they dont, the stadium rules are clear.

If you are in the wrong end and identified, you get booted out (without a black eye if your really lucky). Caveat Emptor and all that.

I heard that second hand from a policeperson. Since Police Scotland took over the whole shebang is run Weegie style.
No wonder morale outwith their hub is so low.

[theonlywayisup]

Do they ever issue the same warning before the Old Firm match?

[Pretty Boy]

Police presence on ER itself is crazy. Just watched 4 mini buses pull up and about 60-70 Polis pile out and split off into 4s and head off to various points on the street. More Police than fans at the minute.

There must be more to this than meets the eye.

Had to look that one up. Here was me thinking it meant "Cavemen Emptied"

There’s at least 6 police vans parked at the back of the east stand too. Tried to post a photo but it’s not working

“It's also momentous in relation to managers and players returning to their former clubs.”

Maybe I’m being a bit dim, but what exactly are they implying by this.

PC gone mad.

Scott Allan was going to savage Dermott Desmond in the stands so that he can get released a year early and come to us but the police have got wind of Rods cunning plan to become the moustachioed overlord of the world by using a pawn to take out his biggest rival

Makes a change from the knocking shops 😂

[MWHIBBIES]

On a train surrounded by them, reeking of drink. Can't see any more than the odd daft scuffle but quite glad I'm not getting train home.
