I had wondered how United's American goalkeeper Tim Howard (currently on loan to Everton) managed to retain his UK work visa seeing as he was no longer first choice for his club or country and as I understand the terms of such visas, it's necessary to play in 75% of club (and international?) games. According to a poster at United Rant's forum, he carries the passport of his mother's country: Hungary which as a fellow EU member, permits him work in the UK. Didn't know that.

Must be because he's never been the US first choice.
Though I'm sure he and Hahnemann will be fighting it out now that Keller's retiring internationally.

I know it's popular to think that Hahnemann is in the mix to start, but the position belongs to Howard. I can't see the US in 2010 going with a 37 year old who got his first taste of the top flight when he was 33. Howard's very good. He'll prove it at Everton.

That's interesting considering all the upset about passports and UEFA that's been such a news item lately.
Posted by: John | July 18, 2006 at 10:48 AM
Agreed, they will be fighting full time. Hahnemann wins? Eh, that might be a good question.
Cheers, Marko

He's never been liked in the states. And, the word on the street is that he easier makes enemies than friends.
Salud,
