    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.

    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

    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

    I just remembered I had a photo of this on my phone. The police presence and attitude was outrageous.

    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.

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

    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.

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

    Where do they get this stuff from?

    Counterfeit tickets must be getting printed for the game, a Celtc thing.

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

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

    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.

    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

    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.

    That's the daft thing, all the trouble happens well away from the ground. Now that's obviously in part because of heavy police presence and segregation at the stadium but every time I hear about trouble it's at train stations or trains on the way back. And there never seem to be any police.
