But how much has he in the head for cold nights and indifferent tracks Edited December 15, 2019 by Bald Bloke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was due to start as a second string on 7.16 for Poole last season until the visa issue stopped him. Agree they are real reasons, which to me says he probably is well past his best. He seemed to go missing in meetings when the conditions or track didn’t suit him plus of course he was hardly committed to Kings Lynn. 12 minutes ago, Bald Bloke said: No. Wondered for ages..

Ford dropped his main man like a stone. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing to do with police. Let's simply say there was an unfortunate error with his visa application paperwork 2 years ago at a time when his off track issues were at their peak and the visa authorities would not allow him to reapply for a minimum of 2 years. He tried to get a different (restricted) visa last year which would have allowed him to work here but that was also turned down. All should be ok now but any application now will be treated along with any other. The fact he is an ex World Champ carries no weight at all. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No Nicholls,,, he's on the naughty list Obviously Holder depends on visa application I would have thought, but that's what the jungle drums are saying in my local boozer. Klindt King Heeps Allen Holder covatti Ayres Obviously something different if no Holder. Edited December 16, 2019 by Baldyman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
