Club career

Nicknamed Shaster,[2] Farrell went for trials with Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest following the end of the 2006–07 season.[3] He also went on trial with Conference Premier team York City after he and Gayson Gregory had been recommended by Bryan Hamilton, a consultant for the Antiguan and Barbuda national team.[4] He and Gregory did not earn contracts, but York manager Billy McEwan said the two could still be brought back on trial throughout the 2007–08 season.[5] He joined All Saints United in 2008 and in November 2013 was playing for Sani Pro Fort Road.[6][7]

International career

Farrell is an Antigua and Barbuda international and made his debut in an August 2006 friendly match against Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. He has participated in two FIFA World Cup qualification games.[8] He earned 13 caps from 2006 to 2008.[1][9]
