Now Greg bird has been found guilty, I wonder if the UK border agency will stop him entering the country, If they don't it will open a can of worms in regards to all the other visa refusals.

He plays in France though. He's already had a Visa application refused when he was after going to Bradford.

The point I am making is that now he has been convicted, the borders agency have the right to refuse entry into the UK, were as they only had the right to refuse a visa before, but, because he had a french visa he was able to play over here, but i think his conviction may have changed that.

has he played an away game?

Yes

Can see Uncle Kath and Tool offering him a contract

Gorden Bennett, can`t there be one thread on here without F.C. being mentioned.

On the topic,it seems a bit unfair that Catalans can sign players that the rest of super league cannot.Surely this is an unfair advantage?

almost as unfair as playing unregistered players or even breaching the salary cap.

Catalans have the "benefit" of a screen every home game, I think they're exempt from a "level playing field" just like they were when they were exempt from relegation for 3 years.

True,but then we could bring in players convicted of assault from all sides into the equation.
