Sol reveals quit reasons
Notts County, 12:22, September 27, 2009 ,
Sol Campbell says he turned his back on Notts County after playing just one game because of broken promises over other big signings.
The former England defender walked out of Meadow Lane only 29 days into a five-year-contract, worth a reported £40,000 a week, and until now his reasons have been unclear.
Campbell told the News of the World: "I knew I would be the club's first big signing but was told I would be the first of many.
"Names like Roberto Carlos and Benjani were mentioned. But nothing materialised.
"And you know when people have money because things happen quickly.
"The only thing I'm guilty of is taking people at their word.
"I bought into a dream and I wanted to make that dream a reality. But it took me less than a month to realise that it was all heading to a different conclusion.
"Let's leave it at that. I don't want to say too much. I'm going to remain dignified. I'm not interested in this becoming a slanging match."
His claims have been refuted by County chief executive Peter Trembling who is pressing on with his plans to make the League Two side a force in English football.
Trembling said: "I'm a bit surprised by Sol's comments. Things have gone at an astronomical pace over the last few months.
"Signing nine players in three months is unheard of at our level and we've started work on a new training ground. We've been linked with about 88 players.
"But I've never talked about Benjani to anybody at all. Roberto Carlos - Sven, I understand, did talk about but it never went beyond a conversation.
"Sven talks every day about four or five players we might be looking at - but most are more aligned to League Two.
"We've said all along there may be three or four (stars) we may take as long-term prospects - if a star is defined by 70-80 international caps - and Sol was signed up to that term."
The club's next signing will be Ade Akinbiyi, who's due for a medical tomorrow, after being released by Houston Dynamo last month.
Trembling is also backing Ian McParland to stay on as manager despite speculation linking Director of Football Sven Goran Eriksson with a promotion.
