What manager even at a Championship club would let that happen? Last time I looked there were tons of overseas born players in the championship. I thought it was just dumb and smacked of lack of forethought.Circus from the beginning.That's a bit unfair. You used to be able to get a passport over here next day if needed. Then all of a sudden, the passport office turns to shit and you've got a 10 week wait.To be fair, if you apply on line you get them quick. I applied for a renewal of my wife's earlier this year, I did it on a Monday it came through the door on Thursday. My mate had a similar experience.I applied for my own UK passport renewal on line and was told it could take eleven to twelve weeks, it arrived in six. Perhaps we were just lucky.That absolutely wasn't the case this summer Dave. We had to renew three of the kids' passports, all done online. The quickest took 8 weeks. My son's took 12. Absolute shambles.

Blackpool played 0 overseas friendlies and signed 0 overseas players last season. It wasn't like having a passport was top of the things needed to be Blackpool manager. Maybe he forgot to renew it, maybe he just hadn't bothered as he didn't need one for the job he was in, maybe he did renew it and it was in the delays mentioned above. Either way it's blown way out of proportion imo.
He came, He sat, He left
Just read that out of all the Managers that have taken charge of 10 games or more for QPR, he has the worst win percentage in their history. Currently at 10%. 1-5-4.
