Its just one cockup after another, the Visa saga is very suspicious. To the outside world it seems the club are clueless wait....... it seems like it to me.

So the initial delay was down to the club not having a bank account which we apparently now have. The next thing to hold it up was the fact that he was ineligible since he was a 7s player. One wonders why an ineligible application would be subject to delay? Unless Cha-Lo appealed.
One then wonders what's holding up Toovey's visa? He should certainly be eligible. So no delay then? Again more questions than answers...
Well, as I've said before I wouldn't be too sure about that. If he'd wanted a visa as a player I'd agree 100%, but his record as a coach is a lot more skimpy. So, of course, was Rohan Smith's, but we've had the brexit vote since then and I'd guess the visa application system has been tightened up to go with the general ukipisation of the Tory party.

If this happens I will show my ar$e on the townhall steps.
Hit the nail on the head there BB. Now sign Chissy. Don't go making promises or threats that you will not carry out. Roger did that and it never happened in the Co-op to much disappointment of many women and a few blokes.

Yes, there is something rather unearthly about our season so far, in fact our last two or three seasons.
Something tells me that our story is about to be either immortalised as a novel, put out (in time for Halloween?) as a new card game by Waddingtons, appear as the latest thriller ride at Alton Towers or be a new channel 5 game show. Not sure which appeals the most..
