May I ask a question please, excuse my lack of knowledge on this matter.

How do work permits work? I'm thinking about Marko Grujic (Good luck to him at Cardiff by the way) .

He has barely played for us, how does he still have a work permit. Now he's gone to Cardiff I'm guessing this will stop the work permit from getting cancelled? Is this why we have sent him out on loan?

{Ed002's Note - Grujic does not qualify for a WP but one was issued to him under the "exemptions" clause that allows a club to make a special case for a player of "exceltional talent" who will be used on a regular basis - and this is what the panel told. It was of course not true but there we are.}

Thank you very much Editor #2. Very interesting to know we lied to obtain a WP, might this make it harder for us in the future to obtain a WP for another player?

{Ed002's Note - Yes, otherwise Allan could have had one last summer.}

We never learn to just do business properly :c Good luck to Grujic though!

alistairLPFC, I know, it's quite concerning, it does nothing for our reputation apart from a negative impact.

Allan! Totally forgot about him.

Does anyone have any idea how he's getting on?

Such a shame that the underuse and misguided purchase of what we were lead to believe is an extremely talented player (and the little we have seen seems to support this) has resulted in the unavailability of another very talented player. Had high hopes for both players. Such a waste, not just for the club but also the players. We need to stop doing this.
