There will be. But I think that's a case of 2+2=cat
There will be some form of contract between Toovey and the club regardless of visa situation. It's usual practice for a contract to be signed before sponsorship for a visa is sort. As such IF Toovey becomes Leeds coach, Bradford are entitled to some form of compensation |

As a Club we are not running on all cylinders, so as a team we cannot fire on all cylinders.With problems re visa and banking difficulties, it's a wonder we were allowed to start at all in this division.Seems to be taking an age this.

It's a mystery why we asked to start in this division at all.
Oh hang on... |

What on earth is happening. Around 2 weeks ago it was "imminent" according to Duffy, since then nothing.

https://www.gov.uk/tier-2-sportsperson-worker-visa
Shouldn't take longer than 30 days after the initial application. 60 days in exceptional circumstances.
Phoenix was reported as signed on 8 February. 40 days ago.
Toovey was announced on 20 January. 49 days ago.
HOWEVER this guidance assumes the employer is a registered sponsor. As the old club was liquidated I expect it's had to re-apply to become a sponsor.
If that's the case it needs a bank account. Has the club got one yet? If not they won't be able to apply to become a sponsor.

Well until we get a chuffing bank account visas can't be applied for according to the links above.
How hard can it be to get a bank account? I know we may be a risky proposition. Any accountants out there?

It's definitely harder than it was.
There are so many checks to do with money laundering, and having good references. Assuming their were no problems with our owners' previous accounts, either abroad or here, then it shouldn't really be that big a big problem, maybe just a long winded one. |

Well Chalmers and Lowe do have previous administrations with other businesses in New Zealand.
Perhaps their credit rating makes them too big a risk?
The longer we're without a bank account the more of an issue that becomes.
Could mean Toovey is never officially installed as coach and Phoenix remains a mythical animal.

..But they had the not inconsiderable blessing of the RFL.Hand picked no less...maybe pick and mix would have been the quicker option!

Perhaps the RFL didn't see this coming and have been providing banking facilities since as a result?
Still leaves is without a head coach or any overseas players for now whatever the reason.

Heres a scenario 1. No visa after weeks. Toovey gets peed off and goes home. Or scenario 2 (allegedly) pay Toovey into his Australian bank, get him over here to mentor Beattie, who isn't doing a bad job, then refer to Scenario 1.

Better not get found out if trying scenario 2.
Hopefully it's all in hand. The longer it drags on after reports suggesting it was due soon the more doubts I have.

The RFL would have to be his sponsor for him to have a work visa here.
...well we are their pets.

To say Chalmers and Lowe have got us this far with all the obstacles and barriers in their way just underlines how committed they are; just imagine what they could do with the Bulls if we had;
1. A bank account
2. A Head coach from Oz
3. Zero points start (sorry I just had to put that one in)
4. etc etc

As much as I would hate this to happen; Leigh Beattie seems to have been doing a decent job. Or has he literally just been the puppet for Toovey?
Worst case scenario, if Toovey does cut his losses and head home, would people like to see Beattie given the reigns or start searching for a new Head Coach?

Didn’t take too long to put that rumour out, Toovs would be possibly third in line and I expect Cleary will be the front runner and favourite

Mick's just asked Toovey who says he's fully committed to Bradford.
