I guess we would lose the point we had gained from the draw if Russia are disqualified as all their results would be null and void.
No, because you then couldnt have a team they didnt play not score that point or gain three without a match.
All teams get 0 or all teams get 3.

A better deterrent would have been for FIFA to threaten to remove Russia's hosting of the next World Cup. They wouldn't of course but the threat would make Russia get their house in order.

That's what I said!
The game would be null and void, no points would be awarded for any games involving Russia, and only matches between the remaining three teams would count. How that would work when choosing the four best third placed teams because in our group only two games would count. I guess it would be points gained divided by games played?

There seems to be a confusion between to principles as far as I am aware.
UEFA cannot expel Russia for violence outside the stadium. They can only do it if there is evidence inside the stadium.
