Daily Rangers article reporting the following from FOI requests

I really don’t understand why Policing Easter Road was 50% more expensive than Tynecastle. Some difference given changes at the end of the season.
Comparison to costs in London are stark: presuming they simply have more stewards

We have more fans therefore more expensive:greengrin
Not that many less surely? Did we have more Sunday home games. Maybe we have to pay more for those.Quote:

With Chief Commander Miekelson being a hibby you’d think we get mates rates
Must equate to about 33p per person if we go by our total attendance.
Hibs had European matches.Quote:

Hopefully improved CCTV (the cornerstone of our erse reduction strategy) will give us a better argument for less Police in our ground on match days.
Maybe the Murrayfield games were billed to SRU.?
That wasn’t last season.Quote:

We halfed the away end a couple times, that will play a big part.
but all football (certainly in england) is paid from overtime rates. usually 1.5 hours.Quote:

It's also odd that it happened the year that Police Chief Cameron Miekelson was confronted about discrepancies in the policing cost between the two clubs...Quote:
