Re: Arise Sir Sol.
How is he a wrongun?
He was a person who came from a hard pressed back ground and got to the top of his game. He has a single minded approach which has worked for him, let's face it you don't win what he's won, you don't play for england that manay times unless you've got something about you.
He has taken all his badges, yes he has been vocal about his opportunities to get in to the game which he believes is down to skin colour. He may have a point.
He is driven, he wants it, and he wants to succeed to prove his worth as a manager, that skin colour doesn't matter. The skills you acquire is what defines you and nothing else.
I would welcome him and I would back him.

Re: Arise Sir Sol.
Why would anyone want a manager with less than 1 season's experience, the gloomsters wanted an experienced man in charge.
Then there are shouts For Campbell.
If he'd done 4 or 5 seasons in the efl *)& won a promotuin i might say yeah , but Ross to Sol
Is a sideways move. Not progressive at all.

Re: Arise Sir Sol.
Why do people insist on analysing his win percentage when he was at Macclesfield? The club was an absolute basket case. 27% or whatever it was absolutely miraculous.
I could not give a flying flamingo what spurs fans think. Why should we give a toss.

Re: Arise Sir Sol.
Having seen him play at Arsenal a lot, he had big boots to fill when Adams, Bould and Keown moved on and more than filled them. Wasn’t the captain, but was key to the solidity of the defence. Arsenal haven’t had a decent defence since he left. Well except for when he returned for a few months.Thor wrote: ↑Mon Sep 23, 2019 6:49 pm How is he a wrongun?

However, don’t be shocked if he clears off at half time for personal reasons. Or after a few days. Wouldn’t see him anywhere for more than a couple of seasons before his next career move.

I dont think Ling will make the same mistake as he did with Steve Davis. Experience counts for a lot.RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 23, 2019 4:22 pmNo thanks. I’d be really disappointed if we ended up with Sol Campbell. We need somebody with far more experience like JE was.

Re: Arise Sir Sol.
If there is any reason why the Board don't want Campbell, I hope has nothing to do with him leaving Tottenham to join Arsenal. I doubt very much they would anyway, it will be what is best for the O's.
