... are all on Trump`s banned list for Visas. Maybe we`ll go through by default?😉

UK residents require a Visa for the USA as do most from other nations.

Yes, I know. It`s called an ESTA but the UK isn`t on the list of 75 countries that Trump has decided are not allowed visas. These 3 countries are.

Just awful, was thinking that this would be the WC where I don`t watch every match, but it might be the one where I lose interest in it (apart from Scotland) it`s the first WC that I won`t be working for 20 years, just don`t want to
As for the countries, there is a massive Haitian population in U.S. but also throughout the Caribbean. The U.S. population are under heavy scrutiny - the Caribe Haitians won`t dare. This is a huge tournament for Morocco, and to deny fans goes against the whole spirit.
This WC and Trump, just gets worse every day

"The suspension will only affect foreign citizens seeking to immigrate to the US via sponsorship by a US citizen, an immediate relative who is lawfully and permanently residing in the US, or prospective US employers.
It does not apply to nationals from the list of countries seeking non-immigrant visas, or temporary tourist or business visas."

OK. My original post was tongue in cheek but there is a full ban on Haiti and some other countries are expected to have only a slim chance. I think Ivory Coast has a full ban too.

Yes, but with ICE taking over cities, and randomly pulling out randomly various ethnicities, and deporting in a large scale, I think if you are from any of these countries, you are under a lot of risk.

I fancied going, but didn`t fancy being shot for jaywalking after a beverage or 2 so giving it a miss.
