On Bulls Website now. Will re-apply after court case all being well.

Welcome (almost) to our world!

Good to see our government finally standing up to be counted.

British jobs for British workers.

Shouldn't be a huge surprise, it was always a strong possibility IMO.

Unfortunately though the EU trade laws mean we can't stop people from within the EU coming into the country whereas we (rightly so in most cases) can stop people coming in from outside of the EU if there is reason to do so.

With the court case hanging over him it was never going to be easy for him to get a visa unfortunately.

Never mind all those plumbers and other skilled workers, it's foreign RL players with court cases hanging over them that we want in the UK eh?

If I would you I'd write to Richard Littlejohn and complain.

Good to see the racists out, I'd have thought it was a bit early but it helps the working day get off to a flyer.

Not the best news going into the first game of the season. At least Ben Jeffries will be happy

Hardly a big deal, we have plenty of people who are locked up in prison who haven't been convicted of anything, it's called remand.

Can't say i'm surprised tbh, and I would hope our 'support' is limited to empathy and the odd phone call, rather than involving any financial commitment. If he wins his court case and is still keen to come then all well and good.

Plumbers? Dregs of the building trade. Only turn up if you're having a new central heating system installed and charge a fortune.

Put them on the list with extremist clerics, dutch nazis and short tempered but otherwise innocent until proven Aussie RL players
