[QUOTE="Rempel16, post: 216885, member: 80"]So if there isn't an official press release then that contradicts your argument that the Panthers wanted to get it out in case he's 'spotted in Calgary' as Panthers haven't put anything out.
The negotiating and contractual issues I can understand as he was contracted to this season with Nottingham, so it's what agreement can be made for his release.
I don't see why we'd show an interest unless Myers/Richie is moving on. Duggan is developing nicely and i wouldn't want to stunt that development by offering Farmer a contract that will no doubt be with inflated wages to tempt him away from home.
Keep the money and spend it on a stud import would be my preference (as much as i rate Farmer).[/QUOTE]
That's what i was alluding too, we don't know Nottingham's stance yet i guess if there hasn't been an official announcement; i can see it's been confirmed everywhere already, but for EP to simply put "inside information" kinda contradicts their own website rule where there must be a reputable source.
Even if it's that they've spoken to Farmer directly!
I would always welcome Farmer onto the team, however wouldn't be dissapointed if we didn't sign him. Our brit quota is up there with the strongest in the league, Farmer would only better that!
I'm not calling you our on anything CaldicotDevil, please don't think that, i was just wondering if there was an official source other than what i'd read online/twitter, as normally that stuff on EP is a rumour rather than confirmed!!!
