Town Centre CCTV - Page 2

SPUGGIE J · 29-08-2006, 19:13

The last time I was out in Accy at the weekend I was suprised how many police there was. It was very reassuring that you can actually leave a pub and get back home without any agro as such. I dont believe its down to just CCTV pubs have had enough of agro and are more orginised in to how to deal with it.

unfortunately most of the ploice go back to the station at 2:30 am.

Even the police need fed and watered. IF the effect of them "hanging around" is reduced crime then going for a brew and butties at 02:30 is not a sin.

Sorry, but it bugs the life out of me when people start saying its rough to go drinking in Accy Town Centre. It's no different than any other town centre at week-ends and between the police, door staff and pub watch they do a pretty good job of keeping drinkers safe IMHO!

I am a doorman, i see the trouble every weekend.

i.e the 10-15 people fighting next to the bridge on Sunday night.

I agree with the fact that they need a break, my point is that most of the people are coming out of the pubs between 2:30am and 3am. Don't get me wrong, i'm not anti-police, i think they do a great job, all i'm saying is that thier breaks could be at a diifferent time.

Better than in the pub. If these nambies want to kick what bit of brains they have out of each other then so be it. Chances are they aint working on Monday anyway. As a doorman you should be glad they are giving each other a doing and not yourself and the pubs regular well behaved patrons.

Well you of all people should know how much better Accy is at weekends now, compared to years ago when every Sunday night was fight night on Church St.

Isn't it between 2-3am when their shift ends?

AccyJay · 29-08-2006, 20:45

True. It just that there has been a lot more trouble in the past month or so.

I can't absolutely swear to it but I'm near sure as I can be that one shift finishes at 2am, the others come on at 2am, and they have an hour over lap for de-breifing and stuff.

Haven't got a clue. It does seem a strange time though

If I can just pick up on this a moment... I don't recall seeing it ever mentioned on accyweb before...

I also believe the Accy police do a great job.. I have had lots of dealings with them for one reason and another (no I have NOT been naughty

) over the last year and I can say they really do a great but mostly thankless job.. its one of them jobs that everyone takes for granted but are quick to complain if they so much as put a foot out of place... But rarely if ever get the praise they deserve...

I wouldn't do it for all the tea in china

Are you saying that if the idiots wanted to cause an aggro sesh then there are no police around not even the canned kind?
