Mentally ill or 'too good' for league 2. Either way, its sad to see someone with his talent struggling.

Well judging by his mauling at the hands of Morecambe he's certainly not 'too good'. More likely he didn't want to be found out as a money-grabbing has-been.

Can I play for them? I'm also rubbish but will be a bit cheaper 🙂

Do you growl at walls?
Or make involuntary yelping noises when anyone looks at you?
Do you ever wonder, really, what the point of it all is?

If you can answer 'yes' to two or more....

Well he's had them for £160k in wages and played in one defeat. He's got a sound business mind anyway 😀

I can do all those if you pay me £40k per week. Most of us here would I reckon. Shame for the lad, he was a really good defender some time ago, would've preferred him to the hell-ishly [i]brave[/i] John Terry (cloth).

let me get this straight as it's not so clear in the article.

It's a five year project not five weeks, correct?

And, Trembling believes that it didn't work out for Sol and if that's so it's better for him to go, correct again?

@monkfish

He wanted to win things though 😉 (Assuming you are a spurs fan)

I would be extremely unsurprised if the reason he has backed out is that 'arry wants him, as he seems to love signing his old players, and you are in dire need of a centre back at the moment, so he'd actally get some games.

For any fan that bought a new Notts' shirt and had 'Campbell' printed on the back, I am pleased to offer a voucher for the club shop for a replacement shirt.

Reckon Campbell should cough up out of his wages.

Trembling said: "I spoke to his representative this morning..."

So Campbell didn't even tell them personally ??

What a prima donna.

Feel sorry for the club and fans.

They have been well and truly turned over.

Did you catch his interview when he joined them?

He seemed more like he was trying to convince himself it was a good idea to drop 3 divisions & become part of Sven's revolution.

his career effectively died when he left spurs!! only kidding i feel his ongoing abuse from some spurs fans is disgusting-get over it -it's only a game. In his day he was a great player
