Immigration fraud in the UK !
 
47 Missing Golfers
The Royal and Ancient Golf Club has launched an investigation into why 47 out of 48 Nigerians, who were granted visas to play in the qualifying rounds of the Open Golf Championship at Muirfield, failed to turn up for their matches. There had already been surprise at the numbers of applications from a country where golf courses are few and far between. The failure to show up confirms suspicions that they were using the event as an excuse to get past immigration controls.

Seeing as there is a common love of football I thought it might be fun to have an expat online fantasy football game for the coming season. I have registered a league at


http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/crs/home.html

the league is called - expat
the password is - expat

The gauntlet is thrown to all Blues, Fulham and any other supporters.
