I think the fact is it was unlikely, rather than not possible. The club said it would be difficult to get a replacement in with the notice they were given. Although the work permit excuse is a useful smokescreen if we just couldn't afford one. You'd think they'd have planned for the contingency and set up a list of potential backups
