Isn't the SPL under the discretion of the British Home Office? If it is, then he'll need a year's worth of caps to reach the 75% of A team games that's the minimum for a permit. He's played in 12 of 22 games since 2010. It'll be 2012 before he's probably eligible.
A club can form a special request. Benny Feilhaber got one for Derby county. He needs the MNT time to justify a special request.

I think Benny got one because his paternal grandfather was Austrian, thereby making him eligible through EU rules. That's how he was able to move to Germany. There isn't any special request (that I can see on the British Home Office webpage) teams can make other than the special talent visa, which are rarely given.
