It’s very easy to get a work permit from the SFA, hence why a team in Scotland would be attractive to the owner of an EPL team. Any player who fails to get the requisite number of GBE points for an automatic visa gets appealed through an SFA exemptions panel which is essentially a wave through process - I’ve not heard of any player failing to be a WP in the Scotland since the new rules came into play.

It’s rare but it can happen. Livingston signing got rejected for a WP in the summer.
