enotian 562 Posted December 7, 2020 According to the facebook post Smetana had to be replaced as the promoters dont have the licence to employ EU riders They've done well to act soon but I do wonder what this means for Vissing? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arnieg 3,604 Posted December 8, 2020 There is a glaring factual error in the press release. There have been no changes to EU law, the changes are to UK law. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The rules haven’t changed just we don’t have the required employment status to sign non UK riders. It costs about £600 to get one and takes a few weeks but looks like we aren’t going to bother and didn’t look into it before declaring we’d signed three riders!

Wrong You've encountered same problem Brummies and other Clubs have in the past. Rob Grant's is now a new company. It was initially Rob buying out an existing Company. Changed when HMRC intervened. A new Company formation can't apply for a Work Permit for a set period (not sure what it is but at least 2 years I think) Surprised Roynon gone to Newcastle as he had been appointed new Track Curator at Perry Barr, could he have ridden for us and been Curator too? Wish the lad well, deserves all the luck going. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I might be wrong - I know Chris has done it for a couple of years now. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Argos 262 Posted December 8, 2020 I have followed Adams Career from is time at Mildenhall, So when I heard he had signed for Newcastle I thought I would look on the forum to see what supporters thoughts were, and of course it was all about is Bad luck over many Seasons, But I really believe he will do an excellent job for Newcastle.However looking at the Newcastle thread I didn’t know about the Problems the previous Promotion Financial problems, So out of interest I went on Company House Website were I had a hell of a shock seeing they owe the tax man in excess of £150K must be very worrying times for the previous owners. I hope Adam as a great Season for the Diamonds and as a injury free season as boy does he deserve it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
