How livid would you be if you were Hull tho

I think the whole thing says a lot about DJ Campbell though.

I definitely think we signed the right Campbell.

Yes it does say a lot about him.

Greedy little bugger.

I can understand players wanting more money, we all want to earn a good wage but clearly he has a lack of respect for people and employees.

I don't know a lot about him, but I didn't think he was that type of player.

As has already been said, it looks like we signed the right Campbell.

Thank god he didn't end up with a promotion rival...

Good with both feet and as we saw when he was on loan at Ipswich a deadly finisher with his right hand

Steve Bruce blasted striker DJ Campbell for allegedly ‘nipping out for lunch’ and walking out on a move to Hull City.

Tigers boss Bruce was furious with Queens Park Rangers forward Campbell, who had been put up in a plush hotel the night before supposedly joining his Championship side.

Campbell was finalising terms on deadline day when he allegedly decided to take a break – and wasn’t seen again as he shot across to Blackburn to try to strike a deal there.

Rovers came up with an offer worth £4.5million over the next three-and-a-half years behind Hull’s back.

Bruce stormed: “The total lack of respect by DJ and his agent left a bad taste. I have no problem with him going but the way they handled it is shocking.

“They said they were going for a bit of lunch, but went along the M62 and left us trying to find out where they were for a couple of hours. If they had rung and said what happened we could have all got on with our lives.

“I have been in the game for a long time and never been as disappointed as I am with their behaviour.

“It’s just greed. Be a man, just inform us of your intentions.”

Campbell’s move to ­Blackburn was put on hold as the parties disputed financial details.

But he is finally expected to join them on loan next week.

Think Steve Bruce is bulls**ting and being bitter really.
