[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 739995, member: 20605"] All this business about the right to work as it relates to national eligibility for sports teams is just BS. It doesn't arise, because the Labour Laws simply do not apply, period. And before someone, brings up the old chestnut of the Bosman & Kolpak rulings, they do not apply to International Sports teams. Playing for your country is not a job or a right...its a privilege! [B]WR[/B] determines the eligibility of players for National Teams not the European Court or any other court for that matter. Same goes for FIFA regarding football, the ICC for cricket etc, FIBA for basketball etc etc. [/QUOTE]
