Never understood why other UK clubs and Sweden don’t suffer the same issues. In the last two seasons Lynn have had 2 riders from Grudziaz (Jakobsen and Tarasenko) been told to walk away. Why haven’t Ipswich, Leicester and Belle Vue suffered the same problem with Doyle, Fricke and Lidsey…? And another one in Laguta fully controlled from Wroclaw. What about Bewley, Woffinden and Janowski? Not trying to make excuses for Lynn, just seems that whenever we bring in riders we are controlled by what Poland says, but doesn’t seem to affect other clubs… 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballers are normally signed subject to international clearance and visa being issued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FromBendThree Posted June 1 Report Share Posted June 1 Shambles from Brummies. Press release was premature. They must be desperate to have done that without noting he still needed a visa. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems Birmingham might have applied for the wrong visa, invitational or the same one which allowed Freddie to ride in Charles Wright's Testimonial and Peter Craven Memorial at the start of this season. I am no expert on visas however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IainB Posted June 1 Report Share Posted June 1 If it's anything like last season riders were coming over on visa allocated to other clubs, I'm not sure how it works but I'm sure Laguta came over on a visa that Plymouth had to complete!!

Brummies23 Posted June 1 Report Share Posted June 1 Even when fast fred is here, we still need another heat leader, if the main man has the money go get Robert Lambert before Ipswich does or Martin Vaculik he was brilliant in the GP tonight.

Why would they need a Visa They're coming here to play one match. If every footballer needed a Visa to play a match in another country. There wouldn't be any International matches. Also if a football team sign a player who needs a Visa. The big teams have plenty of resources to make sure it's not a long winded operation. Also most transfers in football have gone through a lengthy process before they're announced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players are employed by the two competing teams which are not based in UK. Work Visa are only required if a person is to be employed/paid by a UK based entity. Similarly, if a UK based team were to play in Germany or Spain, visas would not be require for players of that UK team. However, in a sport like Tennis. all visiting foreign players competing at Wimbledon are required to have a valid work visa as their earning/prize money would be paid by the All England Lawn Tennis Club (a UK entity) and of course may finish up only playing in one match should they lose in the first round. The above tennis example is similar to the reason why foreign speedway riders require a Visa is they are to be employed/paid by a UK based team.
