My opinion remains the same i wouldn't have signed him for the reason clearly stated that isn't "risable ,taking the moral high ground nor faux outrage" it's my own opinion given his actions.
Will it stop me supporting the Club i've followed for 36yrs+ no ,nor will it stop me attending hopefully he proves to be a good addition but i will say as good as he is he ain't exactly Sonny Bill either.

I'm chuffed that he's a Leeds player. I don't condone his actions with his best man and best friend from childhoods Mrs. But whilst it was a despicable betrayal, one mistake shouldn't define anyone. I hope and trust GH and BM know what they've done and that he will fit in well, to the club, the team and our style of play (but not the WAGS)

Very good addition to the squad, plenty of competition in the back row and scope for keeping everybody fresh.

Hail the sleeve - did not expect us to get him but a big 2nd row who will add to our left side attacking options is ideal addition leaving all other stuff aside imo.

"The Golden Generation finally has its Golden Fleece! They have Wembley Cup Final winners medals to add to their collection." 23/08/2014:



He's signed a 1 year deal initially.

As I suggested earlier in this thread, he'd take a 1 year deal on a pay cut as teams would struggle to match his wage at this time of the season and then sign a new, longer and better paid contract when the club can work on the salary cap for 2017.

Also what I've heard over the last week is that the whole reason the Roosters move really fell apart is because Leeds let Ferres know of their interest just in time and with his desire to stay as close to his kids as possible he decided he didn't want to go to Australia. Once Ferres knew of Leeds' interest he had no desire to go to any other club for the simple reason it kept him as close as possible to his kids. This presented Hudds with a problem as Leeds were the last club they wanted him to go to and they hung on hoping to find another club he'd go to and thus why I imagine GH did his "not pursuing him" pressure article on Hudds because he knew by that point Ferres had set his mind on Leeds only and Hudds were stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Sounds like a very smart bit of business by GH. Whilst we sometimes miss out on big names. I give enormous credit to the way GH balances the needs of the team in terms of maintaining a competitive squad and the needs of the company to return reasonable returns and enable infrastructure improvement. eusa_clap.gif

That depends on if a fee was paid. There was talk of a £50k fee. That is expensive if it is a one year deal.

My guess is that Hudds are still paying part of Ferres wages as they would liable to do, probably the difference between his hudds wages and his leeds wages. I wouldnt be surprised to see that difference between wagesto be similar to the transfer fee.

So for instance, Ferres is on 90k, a year
Leeds offer him a contract for 60k 1st year, with a 2 year 90k a year deal to be signed mid year
Leeds pay Hudds 50k transfer fee
Hudds pay Ferres the 30k difference to buy out his contract and pocket 20k

It's more likely someone will simply be loaned out from the Leeds squad.

If i was to marry, i dont know if i ought to, if i would, if i should , i'd marry a Prop's daughter, she'd go down, i'd go down, we'd all go down together, we'd be alright in the middle of the night going down together!!:icons42da_files/5417-2890lipst1ck_d0rk-msnicons.jpg



Its a miracle Ferres was e 3 months ago and shouldnt have been in England team ahead of Ablett, now all of a sudden he pulls on a Leeds shirt and he's a world beater. You couldn't make it up you really couldn't.

I read your broad brush stroke BS over on your site and chose to ignore it. But seeing as you have chosen to treat us to your ramblings on here. I'll point out that many on SS rated him when he played for the Fartown last minute surrender monkeys. I remember much comment about Ferres being a e mate and a worse husband, but don't remember many questioning his quality as a player. So it seems that you could and did make it up! Still why let facts get in the way of a good rant. icon_rolleyes.gif
