to ask for Brexit to cover the Premiere league?

[mumofone1234]

Sick of all these foriners taking our jobs! England would be a much better team without them! Oh, wait....

Immigration and foreign workers are good

Brexit isn't really relevant, we have players from many countries that don't have free movement, the clubs just get them a visa

sorry , itsallgoingtobefine' but i can't read that link. could you summarise?

Well, exactly, because no Brexiter could reply to my post. I hazard a guess that a lot of football fan Brexiters are having a 'doh ' moment!

I think you may have been eating Matthew's brownies

In the last arsenal European game, one of the Paris side wasn't allowed in because he'd got in trouble for fighting with police, so it does already happen (he wasn't French, think he was African, so non-eu)

But in general, most non-eu nationals don't seem to have a problem getting visas so I doubt brexit is ngoni get to cause a major issue.

Going to, not ngoni get!

No idea what you're talking about, infinitesheldon, you obviously can't come up with a counter-attack so you have to post an obscure argument. Come back when you can argue with the adults.

Is that you Ms Olney?

Maybe they won't be allowed to play if they can find a UK worker to do the job to the same standard?

What about managers?

OP I didn't vote to leave but quite frankly your posts aren't doing the "we should have remained" camp any favours.

As well as making very little sense, football is not a good example.

I get in a very loose way what you mean (too many non English players means there isn't enough of a talent pool for a truly competitive England team) but football is so far removed from my everyday life - in terms of the money it generates - that I am unable to get worked up about it.

Weird thread. Brexit will obviously cover the premier league, as has been reported in detail by many sports journalists and is the reason why the Premier League exec chairman backed the Remain campaign.

I don't believe the FA took a position on Brexit, but I imagine they would be happy to have the number of foreign players reduced, on the basis that English players would get more opportunities. There were discussions on trying to introduce a cap on foreign players pre-Brexit (which couldn't have happened then, due to freedom of movement).

In many ways foreign players have helped the English game, and certainly help the premier league (which is a distinct organization from the FA) but, from the England team's point of view, there probably is a balance to be struck.

I don't quite get the point that the OP is trying to make

Poor op. She's had to bump her own thread about 10 times to get any attention.

Should add, the extent to which Brexit will effect the premier league depends on the final brexit deal. If we end up with freedom of movement remaining, as is still a possibility, I imagine the effect will be minimal (but I dont expect that to be the outcome)

Brexit will cost the clubs money in visa applications but won't stop them buying foreign players

Someone's already started on the festive glue sticks then?

I think it will have very little effect at top level.

Ok, eu players will need visas, but it's unlikely that they will refuse an immigrant who has a guaranteed uk job earning tens of thousands of pounds a week. They very rarely refuse it for non eu nationals, so why should they start now?

I'm a remainer, but I think when leave voters were complaining about immigration, Meza Ozil was not who they had in mind,

I am a Remainer but aren't you quite the gf OP

😂😂😂😂

ClashCityRocker - possibly, but if brexit means an end to freedom of movement, then the FA will be able to impose a cap on the number of foreign players (which I suspect is something that they would like to do).

Yes, poor me, the England football team would make it on their own with no foreign players, including no non-white players. They're doing such a good job.

The NHS would make it with no non-English workers too.

British/white/English...I'm confused now...let's ask Nick Farage, as he's the best representative according to Trump. (and he's the leader of the world now, so let's let him decide)

Op, I'm struggling to understand your point, what has skin colour got to do with anything

Brexit will affect the lower leagues & the gap between the top clubs & those lower down may widen.

The top clubs will be able to afford elite international players who can enter the country to work on that basis in the same way as the very top ballet dancers & actors can.

The lower leagues won't be able to do that & the international players they would have got from Europe to improve their teams will not get a visa.

tonight op?

Oh crikey, she doesn't even know NF's name.
