[John. Walkington.]

What has happened to him?
Has he injured himself while signing for Colorado Rapids?

 

[HFFP]

yeah he tripped in the pen while signing and now 3 months out.

HipKat posted on vital, that on a Rapids site it said that Folan had been 'given the all clear to leave' by Hull City. From their site:

We'll know what transfer fee (probably none) we paid when Hull City announces it. We'll know his salary after the season begins when the Player's Union posts the salary list.

the club wouldnt have to pay any more money if we all donated enough to get him his plane tickets? Although we would need a disclaimer about his medical expenses.

 

[Harap]

i'll be genuinely intrigued to see how he gets on out there. the rapids are the current champions so he should get decent enough service you'd have thought.

 

[WithsHC]

by the sounds of it they liked he, thought it was just a case of him getting out of his contract which I wouldn't have thought is too much of a problem

In America the health care is private so its a good job he's earned a lot recovering from all his injuries at City.

 

[MattTheTiger]

Isn't he waiting/applying for a work permit?

In American sport, the lowest place team gets the first pick of players, and the best team makes do with the last few picks. It's designed so that different teams will win the league each year.

It makes perfect sense then, that the Rapids are champions and are having to put up with Caleb

Are you saying that a goal every five games isn't good enough for a striker? It sounds alright to me.

Its still far better than Barmby's 4 in 27 in the league in a season when he has largely played as a forward.

But he is actually a midfielder, so , is paid to feed the ball to strikers, and, pick up the odd goal, when the opportunity rears it's head1
