Tripe thread.
Folan Backs Out/
Absolute nonsense. The guy has been available for Hull all month but doesn't think "the time is right" to play for Ireland.!! Let him stay over there for good. If he was called up for Engalnd you could be sure his attitude would be different.
"Hull striker Caleb Folan has withdrawn from the Republic of Ireland squad for next month’s World Cup qualifier against Georgia.
The 26-year-old has only recently returned to action following knee surgery and has informed manager Geovanni Trapattoni he does not feel ready to play at Croke Park on February 11."

Tripe thread.
Well it appears quite clear from the report that he wants to play but is unable to because he is not fit enough to do so.I would not read too much into it.Time to call up Clint i think.
ciaran that was funny well done
seriouslly though dont think there is too much to read into that. he is just being honest.
I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
so what, he's rubbish anyway
"A silent mouth is sweet to hear"
Stupid thread!
A player who has just had a knee operation pulls out of the squad because he isn't match fit and would feel he'd offer nothing to the squad in his current state.
Nothing Wrong with honesty in my opinion.
LESS OF THE BULL NOW!
He cant get into the Hull team when fully fit, and Hull have decided to loan a Man Utd striker, Manucho, rather than give Folan a chance. Says a lot really. But i wouldn't read too much into what he said there
SO WHAT??? the guy is just back from a knee op and aint fully fit...he is being honest and fair.
Fair play to the lad...if he feels he aint fit enough to play then well done to the guy cos it means some1 else who is fitter will be in the squad and a fitter striker is more likely to do a job for us than an unfit one.
Anyway, prior to his injury it wasnt like he was a regular in the hull team so he is not gonna purposely turn down INTL football for no reason. INTL puts him in the shop window or shows phil brown what he can do when given a chance.
this thread is absolute nonsense

Worst thread ever?
The guy was willing to play in a B international against Forest, and a "meaningless friendly" against Poland. Why the hell would he opt out of a World Cup Qualifier if he was fit?
call up James McCarthy!!!
So he feels fit enough to show up to play for his club but not for his country. How can that be reconciled?
I'd expect the opposite.
He did come off the bench today in the 81st minute. Maybe he's not fit enough to play a full 90 minutes, but still, he did play!
