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

    Was at Platform 5 after the game. Three police cars and a van turned up sirens blazing. Called the manager outside. Some folk had taken their drinks beyond the designated drinking area. No colours or anything. Pretty unbelievable reaction.

    Caption competition.

    Right boys link arms and stand there looking all authoritarian until the chief constable signs off the overtime and we'll all get back to standing in Greggs doorway before the celtc trash arrives.

    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
    For police Scotland read Weedgie polis.

    On the train through there must have been a group of about 40-80 guys in shorts and t-shirt with no colours on but with Irish accents. Doubt they all had tickets for the game so who knows, maybe the police were looking out for these lot as they were defo looking for trouble.

    I thought the police presence was ludicrous yesterday, coming out of the East at full time to be met by a million hostile neon gazes for no apparent reason was a bit of a surreal way to end an otherwise perfect afternoon. I saw no trouble. I never do at Easter Road.
    I got the impression that they felt they had to justify their influence over the post-split fixtures and were hoping that something would kick off so that they could continue to perpetuate the myth that football supporters are all violent **** who can't be trusted.

    Police Scotland is a classic example of what happens when a Goverment lets cost cutting drive policy, removing our separate local forces was a huge mistake. And even worse they haven’t saved any money. Yesterday’s OTT police presence alone will have cost us a fortune.

    It was not really about cost cutting but about politics the millions lost in VAT for a start. While some will defend the politics and argue that the label of ‘scotland’ was not a main driver, the biggest problem was the first Chief Constable appointment that opened the border that kept out the Strathclyde police culture from other forces - apparently parachuting in folk in charge from his own force into L&B. Local accountability and interest also being sacrificed the the big ticket of a ‘Scottish’ force and its more political than local board.

    Ironically it looked like there was a fair bit of bother after the game up at Abbeyhill yesterday. As I walked back to the car, a large lad was being held down and handcuffed by two cops, whilst several police cars had their sirens and lights on. That’s the first time I’ve seen anything like that in years.
