Under the UK's points-based immigration system, the main visa-routes for non-UK residents working here require a sponsorship by a licensed employer. A sponsor licence grants a business permission to sponsor overseas workers and employ them in the UK. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flappy 1,605 Posted July 4, 2023 (edited) Rumour I've heard is Carl Johnson has resigned as promoter. Feels like a move from MT and CJ to take over. May be miles off the mark Edited July 4, 2023 by Flappy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

May be miles off the mark Well something needs to change sooner rather than later because the club needs a voice now. Clearly that is not Chapman who is just treading water now and will not be involved next year or beyond if we survive. It's a shame that Rathbone is persona non grata with the sport's cartel administrators because he'd be ideal to try to save the club in the short and long term. MT & CJ would need more experience with them like Mick Bratley who knows how to play the game and is as local as you can get. If MT would need to learn one thing bloody quickly then it's not rock the BSPL boat, no matter how stupid a decision may appear. So yes your dart may have just smacked in to the wall (s*** flights) but who knows? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
