Do we think there will be any issues when we leave the EU? Would Catalans be allowed in the league ?

As it is the European Super League and as far as I'm aware we will still be a part of Europe, then I don't see any reason why there would be any issues.

True, just figured there could be Visa problems etc. If someone has any past convictions it could cause problems?

The French visa laws are more lax than here anyway, which is why players who can't get UK visas end up playing for them!

He must be able to get a UK visa now as he's playing at KR for the rest of the season.

I never said he couldn't, I just meant he went to France after the drunken incident.

Nowt to do with brexit but it looks as though visa issues may cause problems with games in Canada. There’s been a few articles recently claiming the SL sides in the bottom 4 May be missing a few players when they head to Toronto.

That wasn't a criminal act though thinking about it, just very very disgusting!

Brexit will be the best thing to affect Britain since VE Day and won't make any different to RL in Europe.
NZ Warriors play in an Australian comp, being a separate nation makes no difference.

Yeah, course it will d040.gif
As for difficulties in having French sides competing in SL and The Championship, there really shouldn't be any issues.
They seem to manage just fine with The Europa League and Champions League in football.

'Thus I am tormented by my curiosity and humbled by my ignorance.' from History of an Old Bramin, The New York Mirror (A Weekly Journal Devoted to Literature and the Fine Arts), February 16th 1833.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_33809.png

There's the potential that clubs, excepting Catalans, could count EU/Kolpak passport holders as quota players rather than having to mess around with the non-fed rule.

It's difficult to say until we have a clearer idea of what Brexit will look like - what 'freedoms' will be gained and how they'll be used by the government of the day. It's still 8 months away, so there's LOADS of time to come up with a plan, and for a chunk of Brexiters to express their fury that their vision of a brave new Britain was pretty much the exact opposite of that imagined by another chunk.

The new season kicks off before then, with no clear idea yet of the new league structure. We should maybe get David Davis in to negotiate a resolution - he's at a loose end nowadays.

Irony is represented below. [quote="JEAN CAPDOUZE":162hm7sy]He is not telling the truth. He is talking paranoid rubbish.[/quote:162hm7sy]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_59837.jpg



Every SL and championship team should be getting these visas in order now rather than last minute.

That way there can be no problems come match weekend.

JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover. There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76030.jpg
