Arise Sir Sol Campbell (P14)

[TonyColemansbagofapples]

Surgeons and nurses contribute far more, for far longer and for lots less than any sportsman, film star or celebrity.

Is that tweet supported by any genuine source or just typical Twitter BS?

Seems it's a quote from back in september, but it seems genuine.....

[its a Barm]

Did he really say that

 

[tweety]

Would lick his own arse if he could reach. A narcissist.

 

[deano ou812]

Unbelievable. A knighthood for what?

He’s up his own arse ..

 

[tommybooth]

Loves his own cock.

Thanks but I think it's a stretch to say that he is demanding a knighthood. "I don't know why I'm overlooked on these kind of occasions. I'm not the only sporting great that has been overlooked but for me I'm seeing all these other people get these gongs and these accolades and it's special - for me it would be an honour to have a Sir, OBE or MBE for the sport I've committed to over two decades."

Sounds like he would be happy with an MBE. Whether he deserves one is another matter. Alex Williams got one for his work in the community and it was well deserved.

If you wanted the definition of needy **** there would be a picture of this needy ****........sucking on his own appendage

Since when was Campbell ‘a sporting great?’ A decent CB, end of.

 

[chesterbells]

Loves his own cock.

Don’t we all?

 

[mac]

Doesn't deserve shit from my crack.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

I think we all know really. He’s always had a chip on his shoulder. Great player mind.

I'll always remember the look on his face when Rug Head dived at the Swamp and Mike Riley pointed to the spot. One of the most bent displays of refereeing in the PL era.

He did invent soup.

 

[dadnlad]

Come on David Coote's. More deserving than any of them for talking sense

 

[TinFoilHat]

Unbelievable. A knighthood for what?

Services to victimhood?

He could give the scousers a run for their money.

 

[RadcliffeRick]

If the "waste of a coat" gets one then there is hope for all of us!!

 

[ChicagoBlue]

Unbelievable. A knighthood for what?

Walking while black?!

I’m struggling to think of anything else!?!

Gary Mabbutt's got an MBE for 'services to football' and he got it in 1994 while he was still playing. So if that's the bar, I'd say Sol is hard done by.

It looks like you can't get above an OBE for 'services to football' without either winning the World Cup, being a legendary manager, or being a chairman. Any players with a CBE are almost always charity-related plus services to football.

Looking at some of the people with an MBE or OBE who got it just for football, and I'd say Sol Campbell wouldn't be out of place among them. Robbie Earle? Jonny Evans? Barry Ferguson? Steven Gerrard? Harry Kane? Gary McAllister? Stuart Pearce? David Seaman? But then so would a million other players, so I'm not sure how they decide it.

Robbie Earle and Johnny Fucking Evans have a gong?
