what concerns me is why a country who have gone through latest terrorist attacks hasn't had the intelligence to spot these Russian attacks before they took place nor the intelligence to deal with violence effectively
Thank fuck I don't live in France
As for Russia hope they do get kicked out and don't condone violence but hope the country gets ripped up in 2018

Which part of humanity are you? I arrived back from Marseille with first hand experience. As a vet of maybe 50 or so England games, in various countries around the world I have seen it all. With my clothes about to go in the washing machine to rinse the stench of flares/smoke and tear gas I can tell you, Craig, that it was the Russian, French and more importantly (worryingly) the local coppers - they had absolutely no idea on what to do, or how to prevent it happening in the first place. Say what you may about our cops, but the situations that I saw in Marseille would NEVER have escalated like that if our officers had been in charge. I witnessed Russian gangs picking off 'shirters/scarfers' having walked unchallenged (by local police) nearly a mile. When the situation turned around and the England fans were on the front foot, lo and behold in come the French firing tear gas indiscriminately, when England fans tried to escape the gas into side streets locals started picking them off, and guess what happened when England retaliated, the tear gas again. It was extremely poorly managed by the local force to a degree that I found laughable - but this was not gleeful laughing, it was disgust. Our cops have it sewn up, usually. As I saw it it was 3 groups against 1, bad odds at any time or place. The fans out there have severely let down by the French - from the government down to the local cops, UEFA are cohorts in this also. Sad to say, but Wed/Thurs this week is going to be one hell of a bad time to be a supporter of England. Lille will be a war zone, think twice about travelling there. I will, if the chance arises, attend the next round. Commitments prevent me from attending Thurs - but from what I saw I will be better off watching it in Hogwarts. Since when has singing provoked the tear gas .... No wonder they needed help in two world wars - French cops........ shiite on them.
