Chief Inspector David Paterson said: “The number of crimes and offences committed at football grounds in the context of how many spectators attend is extremely low and reflects how the vast majority simply want to enjoy the match.

“Thousands of supporters attend football matches across the north of Scotland every week. We risk assess every fixture with an intelligence based approach and deploy proportionate resources, taking account of a number of impact factors including traffic management.

“Public safety is at the forefront of our planning considerations with partner agencies, to assist the clubs deliver safe and enjoyable events for all spectators and staff around the stadium.”
