I remember when Tony Adams became manager of Wycombe and immediately came out with words to the effect that the players were too thick to understand the sort of tactics he’d been used to at Arsenal. I fear Sol may be cut from tbe same cloth.
Sol Campbell - Finally gets a job
- Thread starter Walters_19_MuFc
- Start date
I never knew sol Campbell had the personality he has. I’ve never really paid much attention to arsenal players. Especially around the time sol was playing.
Just looked up some interviews with him on YouTube. On one of them he’s on the BBC breakfast show, talking about his book. He calls his own book inspirational on live TV with a straight face. Feck me

.Ironic comment. Over 50% of our country are Brexiteers. Over 50% of our country are Tory voters. Probably many of your friends and family members fit into both those camps (unless you choose people to associate with based on political votes). Can you not see how this is an obnoxious, self righteous and frankly arrogant position to hold? Seriously.
Good luck to him, I hope he does well.

He’s the closest thing we have to a real Alan Partridge
Played by Sol Campbell. He also plays his own wife, mother, father and children.
When the show bombs, it’s due to the fact they had to use one white actor as the Campbells neighbour, as Sol was too busy to also play the role.

I am going to look like an absolute tool if the guy is successful.
I'm glad he finally got a managers job, now it becomes put up or shut up!
He has talked the talk but can he walk the walk.
He would be a grade A knob whatever colour he was but good luck to him.

It's inevitable with him, he's such a delusional twat that he does more harm than good. He will accept no responsibility at all when this goes tits up.
Just over 10 years ago Paul Ince actually took the same job in the same circumstances for his first managerial role.
He kept Macc up in the league, got a move to Milton Keynes and got them promoted and then two years later was managing in the premier league (all downhill from then).
That does show if Sol Campbell does very well and keeps them up better clubs in league 2 and league 1 will come calling and then he can really progress in the role.
I'm just happy he's got a chance now so he can stop bleating to the press every two weeks about not getting a chance.

Nothing to worry about so.
That sounds just like the football equivalent of Trump.
quoting this for future reference.Neither is my comment ‘ironic’, nor are those percentages correct.
But I’m glad I triggered a lurking snowflake right-winger into posting something this week. Now be gone.

Yep. I'm just so happy he's finally got a job. May be Macclesfield trying to recreate the Paul Ince experience but who cares? All that talk, now let's see some action Sol. I honestly hope he's successful. It'll be quite a shame if he's shown up to be hollow. Hopefully even he knows being a poor manager has no colour. He can ask his fellow ex Arsenal centre back...

Sols message for Mac Town fans seems to be me me me
I think his comment on not seeing black or white is way stronger and more important.
Wow you’re a nasty one. Your comment is ironic because you’re exhibiting the negative character traits associated with Sol Campbell - arrogance and ignorance.
In your worldview, Brexiters and Tory voters are bad people. In actual fact, you’re a bad person and your self righteousness is stunningly unjustified. You have blanketed millions of people in the UK for political leanings far more nuanced than you are capable of grasping. What a pitiful way to view people. There’s both awful and great people on the left and the right. Get out of your tribalistic echo chamber you absolute numbskull.
No I won’t be gone. I have just of a right to be here as you.
You might be gone. You should be arguing against the post and not abusing the poster.
*popcorn gif*
"great place for me to start"
"You've got one of the best players in the world coming to your club"
"I don't want relegation on my CV"
Jesus
Actually... can you not turn a comment meant as a dig on Sol Campbell in a thread poking fun at Sol Campbell into a political discourse?
That’d be great.
I think he should answer every question every interviewer asks him with 'I'm Sol Campbell'.
Maybe refer to Minimalist’s original post which I objected to and see who took the topic to divisive political realms. This is happening in lots of non political threads and I’m absolutely sick of it. Constant anti Brexit, anti Tory sentiment in threads that have no right to go down those routes.
But hey, as I don’t fall on the ‘correct’ side of the political discourse here, all this is ignored and I’m the one who gets the warnings.
Yup. Similar players and careers before management, both clearly not the full shilling, both probably lacking the interpersonal skills to bond and get their messages across effectively.
I did...
I wonder how much he'll enjoy the edl flag a certain bunch of Macc fans sport around the country.
Pass the popcorn mate
that's dreadful if true. He's come out with so much shit and is so unlikable, but I still want him to do well. Go 'ed Sol lad.Interviewer - Excuse me sir, how are you spelling Sol?
Sol - “S as in Sarah look it’s Sol Campbell. O as in Oh my, it’s Sol Campbell. L as in look at me, I’m Sol Campbell”
I find him funny and oddly likeable. Yes he's a right winger and a nutter, but most of his antics aren't a world apart from various others' which people lap up, he just gets more distain chucked at him.
Gizza job Sol. I can do that.
We should appreciate Sol Campbell will never see anything like him again. Because of social media we will never see a Footballer this lacking in self awareness.
He was the assistant manager to our national team for a bit. Considering how highly he regards himself, I was surprised that he took on such a lowly job.

I really want him do okay, if only because, given enough time, he’ll end up doing something like this at some stage

Right Winger? He’s a Centre Back you daft brush. And he won’t even play for them so I don’t know what his playing position has to do with anything.
PLEASE!
