Quote: RB "Here we go. He's a sell out because he went to Union, etc.
That was his choice.

He put the big spondoolies before Wigan. I'm not passing comment on whether that was right or wrong. It just is what it is.

Did you not read the article at all?

Quote: Last Son of Wigan ""I've had 14 great years with Wigan and have so many people to thank at the club over the years for all the help and support they gave me," '"


Andy Farrell = legend.

One of the best players I have ever seen play for Wigan Warriors and the best captain I have ever seen. Some of the things he did on the pitch were something only Farrell could do.

All the best for the future Andy. (Although we have missed out not bringing him back to the club).

C'mon, I've heard him mention Wigan quite a lot since he left and it's clear he loves the club.

In his last season before he left he was a class above anyone in the league playing at prop. So many good memories of Faz, a true Wigan legend.

He mentioned it in the article for fecks sake!

He left Wigan after 14 years of service and had achieved everything there was to be achieved in rugby league - the best player in the world. Fair play to him.

We broke the salary cap that year becuase we continued to pay Faz until he officially wen to Saracens (May I believe), and he didn't play 1 game for us due to his injury.

Taking the man out of it, the issues I have with the way it was handles is the way the news was broke on the opening night of SL. I am embarrassed that Faz, and Wigan allowed that to happen, and allowed his signing to overshadow that opening weekend. All talk was about how attractive RU was.

Faz is still my lads hero, but the way it was all done left me a bit sad tbh.

Exactly, he talks more about Wigan than Sarries in the article so I think that says it all to me and everyone else!

Hows wigans handling of the media part Farrells fault ??

one bad move in 14 years of sweating blood for this club..makes the man not wigan through and through.

The facts or he got a unbelievable deal for his age and stage of his career.
Wigan snatched RU hands off when offered the deal.
