Eddie Hitler Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 A player of undoubted quality going cheap. No chance of hanging onto him after that. As it's only for a couple of months he won't be that worried who he plays for as long as they're not rubbish and he's guaranteed a start. Well we can do that.... Sol Campbell wants a short-term loan move to a Championship club to earn a Premier League return in January. Centre-back Campbell, 35, is desperate to get back in the top-flight in January but knows his lack of fitness and match practice is an issue. He is now trying to get Football League dispensation after leaving Notts County to play for another club before the transfer window opens in the New Year. Campbell believes he may get a reprieve - which would also cover playing for more than two teams in a season - after leaving League Two County after just one game amid claims of broken promises. He has already held preliminary discussions with Championship promotion hopefuls West Bromwich Albion. And the star hopes that by getting his match sharpness back in the Championship, he can rekindle his ambitions of playing in the top-flight again this term. Hull remain keen on signing Campbell in the next window on a free transfer. The ace believes he can still cut it in the top-flight after leaving Portsmouth in the summer on a Bosman but wants games to sharpen up. http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Sol-C...icle186225.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have said Carey bar his Coventry dalliance. If we sign him on loan and it gets us (say) another 10 points then that is money well spent.

Guest Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Why is any team in the CCC going to sign him only for him to walk away in 2-3 months time? I don't think Sol understands the word commitment. I hope the FL/FA tell him to get stuffed and he can wait till January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Hitler Posted October 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 West Brom will not be signing former Arsenal defender Sol Campbell as they cannot afford his wages. (Daily Express) Nuff said. I was assuming he wouldn't be asking for a great deal as he would be getting a lot of the move (return to match fitness, in the shop window for a move to the prem). If he is still looking for £40k a week, and it must be of this order if WBA can't afford it, then I agree - he can do one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riaz Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 The fact pompey let him go and he looked like a little boy lost in his only appearance for notts, I would say he's a liability and past it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenric Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Totally against it, were it even a posibility. We have a slow, immobile lump at the back with boom boom (bless!) Having had overweight, highly paid, uncommitted players on big wages in the past why get our fingers burnt again? He was a great player. WAS.
