  1. >North American cops are being trained by Police ­Scotland in how to handle football matches ahead of next summer’s World Cup.

    >It has emerged 64 officers from Canada and the United States travelled over as part of a learning tour, with three bespoke courses having been delivered this year, including attending an Old Firm match.

    Wonder how they found it

  2. I mean if I was gonna run such a course I’d probably pick this fixture to maximise learning

  3. there hasn’t been trouble at an Old Firm game for decades – it’s a myth that will not die

    people take their kids along without a worry in the world

  4. “So, we’ll try this again, what do you do when dealing with someone that’s inebriated and acting aggressively?”

    “Do a sweet roll, draw ma gun and shoot the fucker!”

    “FOR FUCK SAKE, NO! YOU DE-ESCALATE AND IF THAT FAILS YOU ARREST THEM! NO SHOOTING!”

    “No shooting? What kinda pansy ass shit is that? You ain’t a libural are you?”

  5. In general US police have sent delegations to Tulliallan to learn de-escalation

  6. Did we check 5 years of their social media first?

  7. Mark one up for Police Scotland, great idea.

    Only problem is these cops will be armed next time
