KevH 257 Posted July 15, 2018 I think most people would agree that both Jaimon Lidsey and Zaine Kennedy did themselves proud in the Under 21 at Glasgow on Saturday. Does anyone know if either, or both of those riders are eligible for a Work Permit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ch958 2,395 Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) they most certainly are not. However, in the event of an amalgamation of the 2 divisions maybe there should be negotiations re work permits for non EU riders, if only for a year or 2 to make up for a perceived shortfall of riders. Another half dozen young Aussies wouldn't go amiss in such an event Edited July 16, 2018 by ch958 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ch958 2,395 Posted July 16, 2018 you would think so but there is much antipathy towards immigration in the country from wherever and work permits are tight at the moment. This of course applies to doctors, gas engineers, etc etc as well as speedway riders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
