Randers high risk

[January48]

Good to see the dozen police horses, 50 tactical support unit offices with batons/shields etc and numerous other police there to ensure order. You could tell looking at the Randers fans that they were pretty hard core particularly the wives and children of the predominantly middle aged men.

 

Someone more cynical than myself might say that this was a massive waste of police resources and just to prove a point following the Forest match and the Napoli, Warsaw games. But it can't be as I thought they keep saying the police are overstretched?

[eblair]

they are a joke, thought exactly the same

 

was like after the warsaw game they treated watford like hardened italian ultras

 

policing in this country is farcical

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Complete overkill, looking to make up for being made to look like mugs twice in a row. 

[Matt_Lcfc]

Yes, a complete waste of resources. Makes me laugh as when push comes to shove they cannot contain it - as demonstrated through the Napoli and Warsaw games.

[Reg Vardy]

surely that is a UEFA decision, not a LCFC decision....?

[Raj]

Goid to see our Leicestershire  constabulary  researched the  opposition prior to the game!!

[HybridFox]

One still made it past them

It’s a Leicestershire police decision. 

[urban.spaceman]

Were the mounted division needed elsewhere?

[SemperEadem]

Against the Danish Reading

[MattFox]

They got caught out against Napoli where they didn’t expect the ultras to travel and have made all the European games since high risk

[Blueman1967]

Seeing how manty police vans outside, l thought the Vikings were coming.

Very true, it was like the Randers fans had booked a Saga holiday to Leicester

[ren]

Agreed. They got embarrassed against Napoli and Legia so tried to flex their muscles against a load of normans yesterday.

[Unabomber]

Absolute idiots, I couldn’t believe it when I saw about 10 riot vans behind the south stand.

Caught with their pants down on numerous occasions recently, particularly with European games. Guess they weren't taking the risk again. Although you would think they'd have liaised with their foreign counterparts.

[Guest Lako42]

A complete farcical operation to be honest. 

 

They completely ****ed up against Napoli and Warsaw through a complete lack of research and organisation. Yesterday they did the same but at the opposite end of the scale. 

 

What a waste of time and money. 

[ClaphamFox]

They'll probably downgrade again when we get Roma in the next round. "We were caught by surprise at the scale..." etc.

If it was a uefa decision you'd have 30 or so 'stewards' (hospitality workers with a day off) responsible for the entire security of the event. As seen numerous times throughout euro 2020
