Farrell Health Problem?

Post by Wigan4Ever »

Hope you all don't die laughing at this one but ...

I heard a rumour that Farrell is carrying an additional health problem to the knee thing. Don't know anything further and there are so many rumours flying about I tend not to take much notice. I'm sure the rigorous medicals he'll have had would reveal any such health problem.

But it occurred to me if it were true and Farrell knows he can no longer give 100% to Wigan what a coup to at least get some of the kick-and-clap set's cash for his team!! Hee! Hee!

:( According to the Express to day, Farrell has signe for the Sarecens for three years for £700,000, his transfer fee... wait for it £200,000 to be split between RL & Wigan, so he's definitely not turned Judas for the money then :wink:

A transfer fee of £200K split between RL and Wigan? What does that mean? Why would the RFL (if that is who you mean) have any call on any money Wigan got for Farrel?

£200K is a paltry amount to let a player like Farrel go for no matter who gets the cash.

:angry: Sorry DaveO got it slightly wrong ..as written in the Express :-
"Farrell 29, has shaken hands on a £700,000 contract, jointly funded by the RFU and Saracens, with club and Union also splitting a lower than reported transfer fee of £200,000"

Still like you say not enough. But now we know why they where stalling, cutting the price Eh ?

We've lost the best RL player ever, got nowt for him, so no money, no player, and no chances of winning owt this season !!!!

It's unbelievable how badly this deal has gone for us. Who on earth was negotiating on our behalf, we seem have been royally shafted!

:angry: Well OK that could just be a little bit over the top, but I still think we have been sold a pup, I wonder what was in all of this for Doris ?

We are now 5 of our top players down (Farrell, Davico, Carney, Orr, Hock) and who's been brought in Guissett ????? Give me a break.

The money must be going somewhere, but where :wink: ?

Well we all know what a huge fan you are of guisset, and any other player for that matter. Faz and davico arent our players any more so it's 3 down. Orr should be back in the coming weeks and hock wont be back this season and we know that, but we have enough second rowers
