Right out of the STAPRIX handbook: blame the one's with experience and turf them out to cover our insecurities and ineptitude.Swisdom said:Pretty sure the paperwork would be handled by a couple of seasoned veterans at the club and by going on about this we could well be putting them out of a job

They've had 3 months to sort this out!37

Why don't they move the game to Belgium??

Think we need a bit of perspective here. If it was a player we were trying to sign we'd all be seething at the home office.1

Got it now. The first question was:
'Speaking after your first training session as Charlton coach, how was it?'
....and the answer isn't 'I wasn't really working as I don't have permission yet'.3 -
Every now and then a club makes a managerial appointment where everyone knows it will end in disaster.
I fear this may be one of those appointments....6 -
End in disaster?2

You can be assured that the Home Office would have indicated to the club that the work permit would be processed by the weekend.
Somewhere along the line that process has fallen down. The club can't force it through. Pretty obvious who is to blame, but once again the feeding frenzy starts.
All the club are guilty of is perhaps not sticking a line in the press release that said Luzon would take charge at Watford subject to his work permit coming through in time.
Lets not beat around the bush if the club had held back because they thought the WP wouldn't be done for tomorrow they would have been crucified and accused of covering things up.
Can't win.

Could the club just say he wasn't paid for taking that session?1

Next weeks news today:
Guy Luzon walks out on CAFC after Roland Duchatelet refuses to pay him for the 3 days he worked at the
training ground as no work permit had arrived.
Roland thanked him for his hard work over the 3 days but said these are the rules.
On Wednesday 21st Jan Katrien said they had received 30 serious applicants from all over the UK
and would pick someone from the network in the next 20 minutes.23 -

The problem, Rothko, is that this is pretty much how the club is being run day to day, it's just not visible to most of the supporters most of the time.Rothko said:

Now that's a good get out, it was voluntary work. Sorted.1

Let's grass him up to the home office.6

If the Home Office call Luzon out, it won't be because they've been reading Charlton Life.4

C'mon, this has been handled awfully right from the start. Own goal after own goal. Nothing to do with the mob.Rothko said:

The issues here can't be seen individually, it's the totality.

@Rothko @Clem_Snide @Swisdom so what is the normal length of time to gain a work permit? You all appear to be well informed.
When you say that an FAPL club would have had this sorted out quickly, are you implying that money smoothes the path of a work permit? That's a pretty serious allegation, if so.
You are presumptuous about your fellow Lifers to assume that their reaction is part of a witch hunt against Katrien. Personally I would be surprised to learn that a work permit would normally be processed in less than a working week. Perhaps Katrien counted on that, but suddenly found she was in a situation where she had rather less than a week.1 -

Curbs must have a new job at the Home Office.8

Just ridiculous.
So the UK Border Force fuck up and it's down to KM, RD, the guy who makes the tea at Sparrows Lane because he knows a Belgian, Brussel sprouts, oh and Hercule Poirot.
Luzon will get a work permit for sure.
What it might indicate is that his appointment wasn't planned well in advance as all the conspiracy theorists would have us believe.

Surely the Roland network has it's own home office and permit system!
Anyone working from one Roland subsidiary to another is fine I'm sure.

No work permit so under the laws of immigration no job.
He's good for a four bed semi in plumstead though!7
