Campbell and Mutch

Tue Dec 02, 2014 11:18 pm

They themselves would tell you - they had their happiest times with us - a real club. Again they are proving it difficult to jump up to the top table . They both have great talents. What they need most of all in a world of individualistic idiosyncrasies is to be loved and supported. If they were with us now - we would go straight back up - of that I am very confident. In the case of Campbell - his pace would be almost unplayable - especially from the flick ons from Jones. Do you agree? :ayatollah:

100%.... Was gutted when they moved on. Campbell would own defences in this league. When he first joined us his goals gave us the impetus we needed and he barely lasted 60 minutes a game due to a lack of fitness. A fully fit Campbell would score goals for fun in the Championship. :bluescarf: :thumbup:

letting campbell go for so little made no sense, except for the fact the player himself probably wanted to go.

I did think his goals wouldnt be missed due to0 ALF, but he hasnt hit full throttle yet

We had no choice as there was a relegation clause with a set fee in the contract Moody negotiated. Shame as I agree with the other posters, at Championship level Campbell was top draw.

Palace fan here

Campbell is really shit!

He control of the ball is so poor, it just bounces off him.

I thought he was a hard working player?

If we had Caulker, Campbell, Mutch, Medal in this league we'd piss the league - it would of been funny

Still gutted that we lost Campbell - would have been excellent this season.

To the Palace fan, he's a very hard worker - well he was for Cardiff, though you aren't the only Palace fan I have heard say that he isn't.

I think that was a joke. He is a good championship striker, nothing special in the top flight.

To be fair even Glenn Hoddle made a comment to that extent after one of our TV games last season. Mainly raving about his running off the ball.

Mind you Hoddle is a bit strange :D :D :D :bluescarf:

His touch was shit for us too. However, he scored crucial goals that helped us over the line for promotion. He's similar to Chopra, scores goals for fun in the championship but never got them very often in the premier league.

Worked his bollocks off every game for us, surprised if he hasn't for you?

Would take Campbell back before Mutch

So every English team should play in White by your reasoning. And we are like a family as a Club ? WEZ you are a sell out and an embarrassment to our Club that used to be Cardiff City. The reason we are still red is because the likes of you. When we get back to blue you will disappear as quickly as you came. Disgrace :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf:

Your not the only one on this but hearing the odd rumour of him wanting to leave and wanting more wages.. sounded a little too big for his boots although seemed a good character to have around the club.

Campbell id like back although to be honest I always felt he performed better as a lone striker, when he had a partner his game seemed to drop, almost like he enjoyed the responsability of being the only focual point.

Same with Mutch, struggled badly I thought in a 4-4-2 at the start of the season when we bought him but then came to life in a 4-5-1 and was excellent in the prem.

As its 4-4-2 for us I dont think they would be the players we seen before
