WOULD YOU TAKE HIM BACK IF AVAILABLE??

Sun Jun 14, 2015 2:18 pm

FRAZIER CAMPBELL!!
Just said on talk sport that Charlie Austin will snub Newcastle and sign for Palace.
Palace already have Gayle,Chamakh,Puncheon,murray etc so it looks likely that Campbell will find it hard to get a game.
Will score plenty of goals at this level if given the right service-would you take him back? He was a willing runner and had a good attitude. :bluebird:

100% yes.

Exactly what we need up front, someone with pace who knows how to score goals. Would be a handful in the Championship. However, could not see him come back to Cardiff.

Will Tan have him after that Bolton goal?

hell no! just look at the clear chances he had and failed to score! glad we got rid of him when we did, never really a proven goal scorer, he's not capable of scoring 20-30 league goals that we need!

Don't agree with you here. Campbell's strike rate when we won the league was excellent if I remember rightly.

If Campbell stays fit in the championship he would get 20+ goals IMO

Yes but would wages be a problem?

100% .

Would he want to come back?

100% best striker we've had since bothroyd left, lethal in this league.

I can't see another prem club wanting him,so I think it's championship football for him next season.He wont get a kick for palace so you never know.He will have to take a pay cut though.He has alway's said he was very happy playing for us,and he had a good rapport with the fans. :bluebird:

100%. He is leathel in this division and works his socks off. I doubt he would cost a ridiculous amount, however his wages have to be around the 30k mark surely?

Re: WOULD YOU TAKE HIM BACK IF AVAILABLE??

Sun Jun 14, 2015 3:42 pm

Yes, of course I would. if he signed I would back us for play offs. However, doubt he would come. His Tan celebration and his final message for the fans was legendary!

110% yes! Awesome championship striker.

Re: WOULD YOU TAKE HIM BACK IF AVAILABLE??

Sun Jun 14, 2015 4:11 pm

100% I'd take him in a heartbeat
Would bag 20 easy in the championship

Re: WOULD YOU TAKE HIM BACK IF AVAILABLE??

Sun Jun 14, 2015 4:20 pm

no.....move on

Re: WOULD YOU TAKE HIM BACK IF AVAILABLE??

Sun Jun 14, 2015 4:40 pm

YES. Campbell is unstoppable in the Championship and he loves this club. :ayatollah:

You must be watching a different player. Look at his scoring record for us in the Championship. When we in the Premiership he played most of the time as a lone striker!

He would be better than anyone we have at the moment and he would score 15-25 goals a season.

I would of liked Gayle instead tbh.

That's a tough one, with Campbell you know he will settle in quickly and be liked because he has already been here, Gayle would be a gamble.

Re: WOULD YOU TAKE HIM BACK IF AVAILABLE??

Sun Jun 14, 2015 5:13 pm

Yes
easy question but he will probably end up at Hull or Qpr if he becomes available

Re: WOULD YOU TAKE HIM BACK IF AVAILABLE??

Sun Jun 14, 2015 5:14 pm

Im going to say yes.

He scored some important goals in a side that was never set up to score many.Not a major gamble if we brought him back.

Wouldn't hurt Russel Slade to put a few feelers out about the likelihood of him being available and if so put in a bid for him. I think he would be a welcome addition to the squad.

Yes :thumbup:

Like a shot!

Re: WOULD YOU TAKE HIM BACK IF AVAILABLE??

Sun Jun 14, 2015 6:46 pm

Definitely - his work rate was second to none when he was with us. Always stood out for me. Some class about him as well.

Re: WOULD YOU TAKE HIM BACK IF AVAILABLE??

Sun Jun 14, 2015 8:35 pm

Would defiantly have him back, as others have said great work rate, and would score plenty of goals in the championship.

Gayle would get 20+ goals a season easily in the championship while Campell would get 12 to 15 goals a season in my opinion. :thumbup:

in 2 minds...

i hate comebacks

loved him here in the promotion winning season, was superb... then i remember him in the prem with us, was a complete shower of shit... everyone goes on about his work rate, that dont win games, yeah he worked and ran and ran and ran and ran some more but couldnt finish for shit, was so frustrating to watch

but as said back in this divison yeah a different type of gravy
