    Evacuated

    Why was the ground not evacuated last night when the smoke alarms went off, if a fire had broken out who would have known

    Police Scotland and Tayside Fire Brigade bosses should be answering this question.
    I assume that if the smoke alarms had gone off at the Ross County home game a week past Tuesday with 113 Ross County supporters at the game Dens Park would have been evacuated and the game probably abandoned.
    However with 4,400 Rangers supporters at last night’s game Police Scotland and Tayside Fire Brigade bosses ‘bottled it’ and decided to avoid evacuating Dens Park at all costs in case there was trouble in the streets surrounding Dens Park by Rangers supporters.

    If there was a fire how would we have known, ask the Bradford fans about it

    Thanks for the information.
    You can change the name but they are still employed to carry out the same work.

    It would have been the Rangers supporters in the Bob Shankly Stand who would suffered if there had been a fire

    Many Dundee fans would also have suffered because, despite hating them with a vengeance, as normal humans (unlike them) we'd feel compelled to help them.

    It is a pity that there was not an automatic sprinkler system in the Bob Shankly Stand.

    Hypothetical question here. The Huns will undoubtedly be responsible for their fans the other night when it comes to fines, repercussions etc but what if someone had been killed? Burnt in a fire, who becomes responsible? Dundee FC? Surely stadium safety would be down to the home club?

    Don’t have to be burnt to death, could easily have been the case of someone with asthma taking a turn
