Group B: England - Russia - Slovakia - Wales

[Kenneth]

We've seen four crap sides so far today in two low quality matches. Suspect we're about to see another two.

[danperkins]

That's a ****ing horrible punch, cowardly *******.

[dom9]

Just 6 people have been arrested?

[danperkins]

They have concentrated so much on the stadium and fanzone security from a terrorism point of view, that the city has been left unsecured. It's a mess.

Reading the report on those 6,they have been arrested for attacking the police so it's almost as if they are letting others just attack each other and just tear gas them.

Makes sense for them, it looks like busy policing but means they have to commit fewer resources than would otherwise be the case. Of course they are probably "overcommitted" elsewhere due to presumed ISlS threat....

[danperkins]

Definitely over committed around the stadiums and fanzones. How they didn't anticipate this though is fairly baffling.

[shanks69]

I think they should have had more police and such in marseille,it was obvious it was going to be the biggest flash point.

I think for this particular match, as two fairly prominent nations in military action in the Middle East, it is probably better that they do focus on that. This match must be a tempting target for lunatics

[dom9]

I prefer that stadium without a roof.

[shanks69]

looked more intimidating without

[shanks69]

Sky news saying 20 arrests and 2 England fans in critical condition

[shanks69]

Now saying 1 critical 2 seriously injured.

[redmike65]

England v Wales is probably going to decide Englands fate.

[Chazza]

Not really.
