Carl Fearns has confirmed on social media that his time at Top 14 club Lyon has come to an end. The English No.8 spent five at the club, which has seen the side climb to the top side of the table following their last promotion to the French top flight in 2016.

Fearns posted on social media: “What a strange way to end what’s been an amazing 5 seasons at this incredible club. I wish we got the opportunity to try and go all the way. I’ll always be proud of what we’ve managed to achieve during my time here.

“I came to Lyon at a time when I wasn’t particularly enjoying my rugby and was made to feel welcome and a big part of it from the beginning. Huge thank you to the fans for your constant support. To the “Lads” continue the course, I’m sure the title’s en route. Alas, all good things come to an end.”

Minutes after posting the message, Fearns posted a bizarre video that shows the forward being jumped by stewards following a win away against Racing earlier in the year. You can see the big No.8 being mobbed by five over-eager stewards, who for some reason failed to recognize him as a player.

The crowd can be heard shouting ‘He’s a player’ in French from the sidelines. Fearns eventually brushed off the stewards and made his way up the pitch.

“When you beat racing away and raid the pitch with Liam Gill (thanks for the help mate). Always knew I should of had a crack at league. Get to your front lads.”

Now 30, the 6’3, 19 stone 4Ibs No.8 has been linked with a move to Northampton Saints. He has never been capped by England.

Leinster cleanse palette with record URC scoreline against Zebre

My name is Solenn Bonnet, and I am a single mother navigating the challenges of raising my two-year-old child while trying to make ends meet. I came across a trading platform that promised astonishing daily profits of 18%. The allure of such a high return on investment was too tempting to resist, and I found myself drawn into cryptocurrency trading. Excited by the prospect of financial freedom, I invested a significant amount of my savings, totaling over 5.7 BTC. However, what started as a hopeful venture quickly turned into a nightmare. The platform was a scam, and I lost everything I had invested. The emotional toll of this loss was immense; I felt devastated and helpless, struggling to provide for my child and keep up with my bills. In my desperate attempt to recover my funds, I sought help from various recovery experts. Unfortunately, I encountered numerous fraudulent individuals who claimed they could help me retrieve my lost money. Each time I reached out, I was met with disappointment and further scams, which only deepened my despair. Last year was one of the most challenging periods of my life, filled with anxiety and uncertainty about my financial future. Feeling overwhelmed and at a loss, I confided in a close friend from church about my situation. She listened compassionately and shared her own experiences with financial difficulties. Understanding my plight, she introduced me to Tech Cyber Force Recovery, a group of skilled hackers known for their expertise in recovering lost funds. Skeptical yet hopeful, I decided to reach out to them as a last resort. Their services came at a higher cost, but my friend generously offered to help me with a partial payment. I was amazed by how quickly they responded and began the recovery process. Their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire ordeal. To my relief, they successfully recovered more than I had lost to those heartless scammers. This was truly transformative, and I felt a sense of relief and gratitude that I hadn’t felt in a long time. I strongly encourage anyone who has faced similar challenges or fallen victim to scams to reach out to Tech Cyber Force Recovery. If you’ve invested in a fraudulent platform like I did, they are highly capable of helping you reclaim your hard-earned money. Don’t lose hope; there is a way to recover what you’ve lost.
