Why is it wrong?

He was give asylum while the civil war in Sierra Leone was on. Its over now.

If he now wants to apply for a working visa, surely he should follow the rules like everyone else.

In fairness, he has done what many do not. He has made a contribution to his local area and the club are helping him to appeal this decision.

He gets all our best wishes.

But just because he is a footballer, the rules dont apply?
