Damien Farrell (born 17 March 1984) is an Antiguan and Barbudan footballer who plays for All Saints United as a defender.

Club career

Nicknamed Shaster,[2] Farrell went for trials with Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest following the closure of the 2006–07 season,[3] and also went on trial with Conference National outfit York City after he and Gayson Gregory had been recommended by Bryan Hamilton, a consultant for the Antiguan national team.[4] He and Gregory were however sent back to their homeland, but York manager Billy McEwan said he and Gregory could still be brought back on trial throughout the season.[5] He joined All Saints United in 2008.[6]

International career

Farrell is an Antiguan and Barbudan 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.[7] He earned 13 caps from 2006 to 2008.[1][8]
