Jewell: Folan's a gem

Last updated : 22 March 2007 By Liam Cooper
Folan, a former Chesterfield striker, has been a revelation in his short stint with Wigan and scored vital goals against Watford and the winning goal against Manchester City two weeks ago.

Jewell told the Sun: "Half a million won't buy you most players' toenails these days, but Folan's been a revelation for us since stepping up from League One.

"He has more than paid back the transfer fee. If he helps us stay up his signing will look like an even better piece of business."
