    Sky news reporting Ronaldo debut against Newastle at weekend yet Remy Vita still awaiting permit to play. Doesn't this also apply to Christian Renaldo who signed for Man United?

    You're surprised that the home office prioritises the rich and famous?

    Possibly it’s because has had a visa previously? In a more easier going era. I really don’t know. Nor do the Brexit numpties. o_O

    Cristiano Ronaldo - 180 caps / 111 goals

    Remy Vita - 0 caps / 0 goals but once went to Ingoldmells for an afternoon on Yorkshire Traction

    It’s hardly a global conspiracy.

    But that has no bearing on the time it takes to process the visa. Both players will have a governing body endorsement which guarantees a visa, but one takes longer than the other. Mmm...

    It’ll have a huge bearing on it.
    Ronaldo comes with a guaranteed qualification, Vita comes with a recommendation.

    Please don't tell me you're waiting for someone to say "Ryvita"
    Cos if you are you'll be waiting a long time.

    Paul Conway has said there's a disproportion between the time it takes for a PL club to get a visa, and our club. It's something he said he's got the lawyers involved over.

    Of course Cristiano Ronaldo, a multi-millionaire himself, being purchased by a football club worth billions is going to find it easier to get a visa. Especially when you consider the number of international appearances he has made, and the fact that he's lived in the UK for 6 years previously can only help. I'm sure he still has a house over here too.

    Man Ure maybe accidentally sent his visa application in a box of signed shirts

    Don’t think I’ve seen another club complain about the length of time it takes to get visa except for us though…..

    Conspiracy against little old us. We only signed the guy 2 mins before the deadline. Maybe utd applied for Ronaldo's visa when they entered negotiations, which if the press reports are correct, was at least a week before he signed.
