oh absolutely. in fact I'd say even those with Irish ambitions might be ready to pack them in...
Or they might look at Farrell and Arnold and enhance their reputations by moving

I suspect Farrell may want to come home at some point. When that will be, who knows.

Come to retire, after he served the best years of his career with another team. Like Tommy Bowe and Roger Wilson.

Isn't it good that the Ulster players have Logan to 'fight their cause'. He's an odious individual.

I still believe the only way to get rid of Logan is to show the TV audience that he is failing - empty terraces would be a start.
Sorry but a lot of people on here think they were judged on the what's app stuff only? Does anybody know that for sure? I think they were judged on the whole incident by the FIRFU

An incident which a court confirmed was consensual sexual relations between 3 (possibly 4) people

They were found not guilty of the whole incident. Sex between consenting adults isn’t illegal. Just because some weirdos only have sex to reproduce and they keep a sheet with a strategically placed hole cut in it, between their bodies, doesn’t mean those of us who actually enjoy sex in all its forms and permutations are holding themselves up for judgement. Paddy and Stuart weren’t re-enacting Gilbert Gottfried’s version of The Aristocrats joke. They had a fairly tame consensual threesome and if that offends anyone, then IMO those people can go and feck themselves.

... they were reasonable in their belief that they were having a fairly tame consensual threesome ...

Lets not forget there will not really be any TV audience next year aside from maybe the European games, assuming not many are going to pay for Premier sports or whatever its called, he can just hide behind that

Why do you think the sponsors really caused a fuss?
They wanted out
They used this situation to get out

my own feeling would be that Ulster and IRFU had already decided before the jury gave the verdict that the two lads were going ,and realising they had no basis to sack them spent the time between the verdict and announcement working out the compensation . Then when the terms were agreed informed the sponsors and BoI and vodaphone then tried to grab a bit of the limelight .

Thus Logan could be speaking the truth that sponsors played no part in the decision .

But there is no doubt the misandry inspired hordes of Twitter played a substantial role .

Did any of you see the 42.ie website? I wonder if the complainant was a reader?

Check out "when it comes to rape, I think we're still obsessed with woman"

It's an article about a book from a while ago....
