Mariga: Disgraceful discrimination against lower income cont

[ArabFan12]

I do not understand why is it necessary to impose restriction on players getting permits according to country rankings, which normally reflects on players from lower income countries. How is it that they expect football to improve in developing countries when they impose ridiculous restriction based on nationality. It is discrimination border line institutional racism.

It is not even about encouraging British talent, because the end result would be us to look for an Argentinian player instead.

When will this change I wonder.

I think they don't want to make an exception or be seen to discriminate. After all, most other Africans here don't have one.

Calling him a cont is a bit OTT.

Agreed, if anything these restrictions should be imposed on nations such as France/Italy/Brazil who are more developed as footballing nations.

Whats strange is there is a player who had a recent call up for Kenya national squad (Michael Opondo) who plays in Manchester not but for any professional team but is studying at the University?

Kenyan's and other Africans fill our universities over here with grants yet someone who is employable already has a skilled profession and would contribute to our economy with his £100,000+ a week wages isn't allowed to ply his trade?

Stupid and yes discriminative

I think he was writing country. He spelt it wrong as well and ran out out character space for the headline.

I don't think he was writing what you thought he wrote.

Haha I was hoping that that didn't need any explanation.

It seems like insanity to me, the UK has an insane budget defecit and yet we are turning away a person who would be paying large quantities of tax and NI. This one guy's tax and NI is probably equal to more than 1000+ normal people.

Well filling the universities' isn't much of an issue as most of them have to pay international fees that goes up to 10k a year depending on the course.

I do hope that there is a change soon as bringing in talents from all over the world will raise the game standard.
