Fucking hell
He's just a shit Groot.
@elchecfspur Just in case you thought I was being racist there Groot is a character in Guardians of the Galaxy who can only say three words - "I am Groot" - and yet still manages to be understood by his friends. Campbell on the other hand can only say "But I am Sol Campbell" and is understood by no-one.

Really like Wrighty, comes across as a gent most of the time.
He was talking about Wenger the other day on there and you could tell that watching this unravel is tough for him, but at least he's honest about it.

Classic...
I'd forgotten about this gem.
I'd probably have burst out laughing in Campbell's face if I was in Dan Ashworth's place.

Plus after three or four games that he says he'd need to work out what's wrong with the club he'd probably ask Grimsby or whoever to sign Messi, Neymar, De Gea and Kane.
