Steve Irving Posted January 6, 2023 Report Share Posted January 6, 2023 Whoever it ends up being, Doyle will have a quality rider as back up, unlike last year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things very rarely stay private and confidential in this day and age and he will know full well what is getting leaked through numerous sources.

TTT Posted January 6, 2023 Report Share Posted January 6, 2023 I read on a Polish site that British clubs are paying more money to riders this year than in previous years hence why we're seeing a few big names being strongly linked with UK returns. The Swedish league isn't as stable as it use to be either which is helping UK clubs attract bigger names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Announcing Batchelor and Worrall would no longer cut it and he knows it. I’d say that also puts pressure on him to deliver success. A league title is long overdue, and if he’s being backed like it seems he is, he has to deliver sooner rather than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know for a fact they are actively trying to get the Emil deal over the line. He’s keen to ride over here this season so we will see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As he has a Polish licence (and citizenship) he is allowed to race there, but he absolutely won't be allowed to race in the UK, or anywhere else as his Polish licence won't cover him anywhere other than Poland.

He's not allowed to race anywhere other than in Poland. Partly correct. Any Russian national that had global citizenship elsewhere pre-2022 are free to work anywhere in Europe. Any non UK citizenships taken up by Russians from 2022-on are suspended from UK employment but work permits can still be applied for. The process could take up to 6 months to approve, providing they have no historical links to working for the communist & / or current Russian government, this includes all family members.

What is "global citizenship"? What I stated was correct. There is no chance for Emil to race anywhere other than in Poland this year.

Emil can be granted a work permit, it can only be approved directly by the Prime Minister & / or Secretary of State for the Home Department & take up to 6 months.
