I can see him playing again for Chile if they changed their manager. Will this affect his work permit desisicon as the argument against his permit before was to do with Chile not being in the top 70.

Cheers flipmode

Can't see it impacting on his Visa situation. At least I hope not!

Him retiring from international football can only be good for us. It shouldn't impact on the work permit decision otherwise he wouldn't have done it. It can be good because correct me if I'm wrong but don't the South American teams play in like midseason (not the same time as the european teams play). Also we don't get him returned to us jetlagged.

The meeting is going on now, as far as I'm aware, and it's in a hotel in Sheffield.

I have to stress it isn't us (the Home Office) who make the decision, it's the independent panel. If they say 'yes', we'll grant it.

My mate is at the meeting. As soon as he gets back he'll let me know, (and I'll let you know) but by the time he gets back here, the media will probably have already released it.

another thing that shits me... across the EPL and other major leagues they love to rape and pillage leagues across africa, south america and to a lesser extent asia but as soon as a player wants to play for their country the clubs :censored:

cry over the player being returned tired..

Hello...38 league games... League and FA cups plus Champions League and UEFA plus a handful of other :censored:

tournaments.. I wounder where the fatigue comes from... it aint from a handful of international games..

English supporters and press bitch and moan cause their national team is :censored:

.... good individuals but not a good teams :censored:

It is a shame when players get injured but how does it differ whether its club or country...?

Might be something to do with that fact that we have paid a fee for the player and are paying them hefty wages.

Just a thought like.
