Brexit Effect

[sven78]

Apologies if this has been asked but I couldnt find an answer to it. 
 

The Brexit thing in my current save does not allow me to sign players on free transfers...they just dont get a work permit. Lost out on 3 quality players now. All were international players from europe. One still wanted to sign...so I did, couldnt get work permit despite appeals etc, cashed in on him in the Jan so made £15m for 4 months ownership but would rather of had him. 
 

Contract renewals are nervy aswell, had current players rejected WP on contract renewal but thankfully the better ones get them on appeal. 
 

Has my save been loaded with the hardest brexit imaginable?? What are the differences?

I just edit it out before I start a game. I personally don't see the relevance of it in my game. Especially since nothing has been decided yet. I also think the premier league and the FA won't stand for tougher sanctions with regards to signing foreign players. It's too powerful and generates billions in income to accept stringent work permit restrictions.

Just my opinion.

I was lucky, they got rid of the WP and you were only allowed 17 foreign players in the first team. Then all the players who had been in England for more than 5 years just took up British nationality.

You can check the rules on the league's rules page. It sounds like the players aren't playing enough international games for a good enough team to be eligible, and then don't get enough points from the transfer fee, wage, and playing in a top league to win an appeal.

One was Myron Boadu....he was still at AZ in Holland but he was playing International footy for Holland, contract was expiring agreed a deal, failed to get a WP, appealed and was rejected so cancelled. 
 

Every foreign player purchases for money gets rejected on every transfer, but upon appeal they get it, its when its a free they never get a WP even on appeal.
 

I didnt  think to check rules, will have a look. I clearly missed the message when Brexit was announced in my game, Im assuming its a hard one as havent signed 1 non UK player who has got a WP immediately, every single one has to be appealed

Time to make it a homegrown challenge I reckon.
