Okay let me see they were put up in a hotel that was housing asylum seekers, then the hotel's residents were given permission to play football on the rugby club's field, then finally they were signed up to play in the rugby team.
What a tale of success for two criminals, one couldn't make it up.
/// Also missing since the Games ended is Rwanda's athletics coach. ///
Perhaps St Peter's RFC should now try to trace him so as to sign him up as their coach?

maggiebee I think you seem to understand that they worked here whilst subject of a visitors visa. Good. That contravenes the terms of coming here on a visitors visa if they worked.One can assume that they, therefore are not working for nothing but also are not paying N.I. or tax on their income. It was suggested earlier that this was probably planned in...

"weren't" not "wasn't". Sorry, being pedantic today. From what I can read, these two were asylum seekers which is very different from illegal immigrants. Don't think they are/were criminals as you state, but going through the normal process. They have now been granted asylum so don't know what the fuss is about.

I stand corrected, now may I correct you, they were illegals until they were discovered, so they then applied for asylum, so technically they are criminals who have now introduced a 'get out of jail free card'.
And the fuss (as you put it) is about the easy way they have been granted asylum, when they should have been sent back to Uganda as soon as they broke cover.

They came in August and are allowed to stay for 6 months as visitors. That is now up. They have now applied for asylum.
So they are not criminals. They seem to have found employment if or when their Asylum is approved.
Plenty of African footballers play in the English Premiership, so two Rugby players playing for a Welsh team is not much different.
No need for anyone to be deported - everyone's happy. Well not everyone eh, AOG.

As a visitor, they were not allowed to do paid work. Now they have been granted Asylum they can. I expect they will be being paid something for their Rugby, and be supplimenting it with the valetting job.
As they were not professional players, the route of getting a work permit was not available to them. They have done nothing criminal.

These gentlemen have their oooooman rights.They have a right to a family life so send them home to Uganda where their family awaits them.I thought a rugby match lasted 80 minutes not 12months!!!They were taking the p. God . Some people love to have the wool pulled over their eyes on this site and get suckered in don't they? Just stay on this site and live in denial as to what is right and wrong and DON'T please apply to join the H.O. in asylum and visa control

You can call them criminals as many times as you want, but you are wrong.
