What's the deal with players from outside the EU these days? It used to be the case that they had to play international football to get a work permit to play in England. It was quite a hot topic for a while, but I haven't heard any mention of it for years. Has that just gone away?
Yeah - all you need to do now is catch a leaky boat from Benghazi to Lampedusa, wait for a buoyant boat to Palermo, make it by hook or crook to Calais, affix yourself to the underside of a moving vehicle, and then gravitate northwards. Turn up at Oakwell. Show immense talent and an ability to get us single-handedly out of this league. Be free to heavily doctor my son's passport (Skeggy holidays hereon for said offspring, but let's face it, it's more than hot enough in Lincolnshire these days). Live his yours (and my) dream. Simples.
if he has an Aussie passport would that mean he will not need the clearance , being as Australia is in the commonwealth ?
https://theworldgame.sbs.com.au/meet-the-midfielder-aiming-to-be-a-socceroos-world-cup-bolter Sounds ambitious. Can play for three different countries and hopefully we can help him achieve his dream of playing for Australia. Been at Telstar like our Arjan.
The Scottish FA has already been on the phone begging him to play for them. He said he’s holding out to one day play for a bigger nation. That first Thailand cap can’t be far away.....
