Probably wide of the mark, but thought it was worth posting.

Also his latest Instagram post, although it could be playing up to the article

It’s the Sun so the chances of an even passing resemblance to the facts are vanishingly small. we shall see.

Wait for Chris Phillip to respond to that news. Or best still, ask him.

He may well leave. I like Sol Campbell but right now it wouldn't be the end of the world.

Laughing about this at work. Sorry but couldn't care less about Sol Campbell and his inflated ego.

There’s no smoke without fire.

Talksport just stated on their 9am sports bulletin that they understand that there is no truth in the rumours that Sol is set to quit.

Maybe Jim White will get Ron back on later this morning to clarify?!

There has been nothing about this on Radio 4.

Shame.

Shame.

If he did leave I doubt if he would find employment as s manager again.

Why wouldn't he?

He's been dealt a **** hand financially at both clubs

Doesn't actually need the job though does he?

wonder if now that Ron has the new stadium deal as a carrot, if he's now looking for a management team who can bring in investment, as per the situation with Henrik Larsson.

You can imagine Ron wanting to use this time to completely clear the decks and start a significant rebuild at the club, and he can only do that with some money in place. Campbell wasn't Ron's first choice, and it seems the relationship between them has broken down.

Who at this moment in time would be looking to invest in a football club, is another question.

What's his wealth got to do with it? If he wants to work then let him

 

[kentblues]

This is made up. If it’s in the Sun, Mail or Express treat it like you would medical advice from Donald Trump..

 

[tottenham541]

Wouldnt worry me if he left, with the new stadium coming up hopefully we need a manager that actually cares for the club, ideally a ex player that can maybe put a bit into the club or even get a stake in the club, maybe two ex players that no what they want, its about time we had Barrett and tilson or Barrett and Harris

Not from the financial situation as far as we know so why did he bother in the first place. It did take him eight years or so to get his first managerial post.

Honestly not bothered in the slightest if he did go. Yes he’s been “dealt a tough hand” and yes we were basically up the creek without a paddle before he came in, but he’s hardly pulled up any trees. Arise Sir Adam.
