Manager Steve Fallon and coach John Beck have been admirers of Farrel for some time and previous attempts to sign him have not come to fruition but this time the circumstances for all parties seem right and the will to progress this move is also shared by all involved.

Steve Fallon commented: "We know we need to strengthen our mid-field so I hope we can progress this loan so Ben can join us. A player of Ben's calibre joining us will certainly boost our squad."
