Lads, I think the posts above have been a bit harsh on Folan's withdrawal from the Carling Cup squad last May. Folan was called up for the squad but had been struggling with an injury for Colorado. I believe he only played a total of 90 minutes throughout the whole month of May (Colorado had six games during the month).

We've seen a lot of players miss games over the years through "slight niggles" so I think the suggestion that Folan snubbed his country is a bit over the top.

He seems to be an odd character and i do wonder about his attitude to his whole career at times but it is harsh to accuse him of "contempt for his country". I was as surprised as anyone that Trap took the time to call him last week though.

I thought Folan did ok for us - streets ahead of Best. If all that stuff is true about him, then let him f**k right off. Strange, though, that Trap would call him if he had shown contempt towards Trap and the squad.

Folan should be well down the list of strikers IMO. In fairness to him he did put in a couple of good shifts for us but it's not as if we are struggling for options up front at the minute.

Definitely agree with this; he was in the team kinda regularly during the WC campaign, especially big against Italy away, but he hasn't done anything at Birmingham since he joined a few months ago and he'll be off to a new club. Keane, Walters, Long, Doyle, Cox, Stokes, Best, Keogh, Mason, etc etc all ahead of him.

I bet he's a better basketball player than football player.
 
Probably useless at 3 pointers though...

Not sure how he's doing but got an assit in this game. George Boateng is the skipper of T-team. Standard looks terrible.

A fella I was in college with who now lives in Malaysia put up a status on facebook last weekend saying he'd had a few beers with Caleb Folan and George Boateng and that they were sound fellas. I commented asking how Caleb was. He replied to say that Caleb was in good form and glad to be injury free. He said he spoke openly about how his playing ability has declined but that he is happy in Malaysia.
