It doesn't seem to affect the free flow of football players. Not sure where they draw the line on that one

Re: Move OFF

Never understood that myself VOR. Seems different rules apply for football.
No shortage here of players wanting to play football.
Playing football as a professional is employment, yet how many top sides consist mainly of overseas players.

Re: Move OFF

I think a minimum of four or five home grown players in a team "rule" would help to develop a good production line of British players.

And in the case of Wrexham four or five Welsh players

They already have that for squad requirements, for example we had to have at least 8 home grown players in our squad of 22 and at least 7 in our matchday squad for every game.

In the Premier League, they have to have 8 home grown players in a squad of 25.

The thing is though, a home grown player is a player of any nationality that has been registered for a club in England or Wales for at least 3 years prior to their 21st birthday, so clubs in the Premier League bring in young kids into their academies at 15 and by the time they're at the age to make the first team, they count as home grown, even if they're French, Spanish, Brazilian or whatever.

That needs sorting. Maybe up the number also.

Re: Move OFF

Footballers/football staff/everybody in general from EU countries have to apply for a work visa where they didn't have to before.

That's where the line is drawn.

Works the same the other way too, as Mangan has found out to his detriment.

Certainly with players if a foreign player has a GBE he will automatically qualify for a work visa no matter what nationality he is, GBE is a points based system which was signed off by the home office back in 20/21, it relates solely to players though

Re: Move OFF

That's not strictly true.

You're right about the nationality not being a factor (as EU and non-EU nationals now fall under the same rules when applying), but they don't automatically qualify for a visa just by getting a GBE, as there are a number of other requirements they have to meet before a visa is granted.

Re: Move OFF

Football related ?

Re: Move OFF

No.

The GBE is the football-related points-based assessment (although it exists for many other sports too), however obtaining that is only part of the subsequent points-based application they need to make to the Home Office for a visa.

I'd guess speaking the language would be part of it.

Re: Move OFF

Correct; that's one of the other requirements.

Re: Move OFF

The level required is A1, which is the most basic level.

I wouldn't mind a friendly over in Madrid. I wouldn't send the first team though, perhaps just a second string Stockport County XI so that we can keep the game competitive for them.

9B Stockport Edgeley, 9F Heaton Mersey
