Let the grown ups worry about work permits

Stop being so patronising.

It's hardly rocket science WPs and there is a link that I posted that does the work.
He may well get a permit based on his appearances over the last 12 months pending on what tier that league is in that he played.

It's happened before so certainly something to be thoughtful about.
You would certainly hope that once bitten etc.

When you go back to the Ott situation, how it happened when there are WP calculators online then it does raise some questions.
My only idea is that they believed if he couldn't get a WP then he would automatically be fine as 1 of the 4 non WP slots but there are still requirements to obtain one of those 4 slots.

Vital said Brazalian Winger on loan

Gustavo Nunes from Brentford

 

[WentToSchoolWith]

Was going to comment that his history isn't exactly inspiring, but he was playing for Gremio at 18, must be decent

I’m not sure who it could be but I’m hoping it’ll be somebody comparable to Rak-Sakyi in some way as difficult as that would be to find. I get the impression that we’re only going to sign players this January if it’ll really be worth it.
