Opening old cans of worms and all that....but he really didnt **** us about and people need to get over it. It is a complete myth, he NEVER had any intention of signing for us and made that clear all along to those who counted. The only ones who strung it along were Brown and Duffen to try and reinforce their images and to a far lesser extent his dad who simply kept his options open exactly as he should.
I'm sorry, but that just isn't true. I read reports in the Hull Daily Mail containing direct quotes from both Campbell AND his father, both when he went off to the U-21's tournament AND when he went off on holiday, both stating that a return to City was still a possibility and that it would be decided when he returned. Now you can claim the Hull Daily Mail misquoted them if you like but those things were printed in the media.
That's another reason why he probably wouldn't fancy it, along with the fact he's just too good for the championship. If his former manager could persuade him to come for a few months however then yes please, we wouldn't have to worry about scoring goals that's for sure. Yes, he certainly messed us about, BUT without the Campbell/Windass partnership we wouldn't have gone from a mid table championship side to play-off winners.
I quite agree. Whilst it is most likely purely academic and something of a mute point .......... but as someone posted recently that maybe the Allams are taking a different economic tack ...... who knows? It is kinda interesting to think about Heskey up front holding up to play of to BOTH Fryatt and Campbell!
Whoa fella, Ive been posting the odd post on here for over a year now. You must try to keep up!!!!!!!
You see for all these fancy tricks to hide it, it was the 40 at the end of the user name that was what gave it away to me.
It stops Scoots and Dutch finding out who you are from your IP Adress by assigning you a random IP address from a redirection host site. And chill, I was only jossin with you about Not606. However, how am I supposed to know you are in fact the infamous sunn40 from your Not606 username "tigers40"? Actually, I suppose I could say Ian Waterson is a nob, and see who bites!! , er, that was an attempt at humour just in case The Acme Thunderer should ever venture away from CI.
I know you were Strov, mine was just tongue in cheek. As for Acme I think we will leave it there!!!!!!! BTW Im very pleased to be infamous.
Very impressive that is Lammie. I dont think Ive got one on me computer, it cant be as up to date as yours.
