It sounds like the boxing last night in IAW didn't go to plan

Let's hope IAW puts on better security at the next event.
I'm surprised there wasn't a better police presence considering the current threat from ISIS. Boxing in the past has tended to attract service personnel, the proximity of the IAW to the Special Forces Support Group HQ at RAF St Athan l would have expected better.

Why is that out of order.
The article was critical of the security staff compared to other venues.
It's public knowledge. Google RAF St Athan it was also all over the media in 2006 when they moved in.
It's public knowledge that military personnel are potential targets and as such measure are or should be considered for their protection.

Ridiculous comment and that's from a serving member of the Armed Forces. I'm based in Portsmouth you don't see police lining the streets outside of the base. Unless there is a specific military event with very specific advertising of a military presence there will never be extra security nor a need for any. you can't expect extra police just because soldiers are known to attend an event. You do realise SFSG aren't special forces right? They're and infantry support unit for SF and just regular soldiers, albeit usually Paras, they don't require special treatment like the SAS or SBS.
Electro you have to be the most educated person I've ever had the fortune to interact with. Your in depth knowledge on such a broad spectrum of subjects is truly inspiring as to the capabilities of the human brain and your presentation style of these fact based opinions is wonderful to observe. Don't go changing.
There has not been a blackout within the media of public events that may contain military personnel.
The media reported recently on the 75th anniversary of the SAS in Hereford attended by 5,000 ex members and the Royal Family.
Again my reaction was in response of the criticism laid towards the security staff at the IAW compared to other venues and the low number of officers sent to deal with the problem.
It's venues that pose a soft target that potentially have the most risk, you don't need to be 007 or a genius to watch the news, especially when the French authorities admitted there stretched and did not police Nice correctly.

I think you'll find no country can police everything in that way which is why the British authorities prefer intelligence led policing.
This possibly should have been dealt with better by IAW either through vetting fans coming in - already drunk then no entry - and once in ensuring that no-one drinks too much inside. Where they see fans have then get the stewards to turf them out before incidents get out of hand.
