Sunderland Striker: I’m Still A United Fan

Former Manchester United striker, Frazier Campbell, has expressed his gratitude to our club ahead of playing against us on Sunday afternoon.

Campbell has scored 7 goals in all competitions this season after making the £6m switch from United in the summer.

“I’m very thankful for the time I had at United,” said Campbell. “They are a great club and I learned a lot there. United made me the player I am today. But at the same time it’s about my career now so I want to keep progressing and get to that next level as a footballer. They are a great team, it should be a great occasion and I’m happy to play against them. It should be a good game.”

Campbell has admitted that whilst he would be professional if presented with an opportunity to score, he doesn’t relish the opportunity of possibly standing in the way of us winning the league.

“I will probably walk back to the halfway line and try to pretend it never happened,’’ he continued. “There’s no chance of me taking my shirt off or anything like that. I may be a United fan but first and foremost I’m a Sunderland player so there’s no way I would miss on purpose or anything like that. But if I score, it will be a weird sensation. It could stop them winning the title. Now that’s what I call pressure!’’

    Did anyone else notice that the Hull fans were booing Fraizer’s every touch last weekend? What a pathetic bunch. This guy’s goals and assists got them into the Premier League and that’s the gratitude they show him! Good riddance to bad rubbish.

    Get ready to be in Patrice’s back pocket my friend

  5. musvn says:

    @Fred: yeah, I noticed that. Surprised that no one has mentioned that since. Pathetic!

    Good lad that Campbell. Can’t blame him, but I think our back line will have him well locked down.

    D-Day today… Here’s hoping the scouse bastards draw and a win for us.. be it a 93rd triple deflected own goal..

    COME ON REDS!

  8. jespermoses says:

    yup……the day has come!!!! woke up 7.00am today even after a very heavy night! missed out on getting my nuts wet so just hope liverpool do the business later….cant believe its come down to this!

    Apparently FSW said he had to withdraw benayoun and aquilani on thursday because of fatigue. If the players have recovered completely they dont have much options on the bench. They may have to call upon the likes of ngog,pacheo,el zhar which doesnt exactly give me much hope.

    the major factor could be the absence of el nino. Terry and alex would have been shitting in their pants at the prospect of facing him. It lifts the whole team and the crowd when he plays. One of my friend told me carragher and stevie me are losing their status as ‘fans favourites’. its torres now. Stevie me himself admitted the players lost confidence due to the absence of torres

    This is the day guys. Come on you scousers!

    Most former United players, especially those who came through at such a young age will never forget what a great place they have come from. Their appreciation fuelled by the clear gap in class between Old Trafford and where they are now.

    I don’t think Campbell will start today, he’d be lucky to get a run out against us ‘for the good times’.

    As for Anfield, I am hoping that Chelsea have a very bad game, anything better than that and I can’t see Liverpool stopping them.

  13. HARGREAVES' CURLY HAIR says:

    Hey guys long time hey this season has come to an interesting climax will the dippers throw the game,that remains to be seen and i hope the dippers can do the russian mafia today.

  14. HARGREAVES' CURLY HAIR says:

    Frazier is a good lad with potential but truth is,he was’nt going to make it here cos we would’ve wanted some game time and we still had lads like febian brandy on loan at gillingham
    Come on United!

  15. Costas says:

    @HARGREAVES’ CURLY HAIR

    Hi mate. Long time indeed. Nah, I don’t think that the dippers will throw the game. But I doubt that they have what it takes to even get a draw today. Everything has gone Chelsea’s way this week.

  16. bchilds says:

    Well lads here we go, the most important afternoon of the season is upon us. I just can’t see the dippers trying too hard against Chelski, I can’t but we’ll see what happens.

    I think if Chelski don’t win we won’t risk Wazza cus it’ll be all but over but if they look like they’re going to drop points he’ll be in the starting 11!

    For one of the very few times I must say “Come on Liverpool!” – urgh, time for a shower!

    I can’t remember which prem manager said it, but remember reading a quote once saying that there was a clear difference between the attitude and professionalism of players from united and arsenal that they loaned or bought than from players of other prem teams. I think it’s a testament to Sir Alex and the whole united team that given the sheer number of players that go through the united books, that not alot have a bad word to say. The chances are presented to them and it’s upto them to grasp the nettle. But nearly everyone-apart from the odd sour argie-has praise for their time here. Manchester united are not just a club, they’re an institution. Oh and come on you scousers, do the right thing for once in your lives

  18. Mark the Devil says:

    i don’t think the village idiots will throw the game, i just think they aren’t good enough to trouble chavski, but i will be more than happy to eat those words. come on you scousers, right I’m off for a good body scrub now!!

  19. Ulster Red says:

    chelski would beat the scousers every day of the week, so much hope from evryone just to be let down..

  20. SqueakyRed says:

    The one time that I hope Carragher manages to get away with murder yet again today. Can’t believe I’m hoping for a dippers clean sheet.

  21. trevor says:

    lads,

    After a terrible nights sleep my mind is continually questioning whats going to happen today. I have went over so many differnt scenarios i dont even know what day of the week it is!! Well sort of!

    ok.,,

    What have we got going for us today

    I can see Chelsea play a little nervious today
    Liverpool have nothing to play for really, It can benifit us as they will be relaxed and at times it work in their favour

    What we have against us
    Liverpool playing In Europe with overtime on Thursday Night
    Chelseas Form
    Liverpools Form
    Liverpools Defence
    Liverpools Attack…. How many corner flags is Kuyt going to hit?

    When i think of how things are going to pan out, i see two senarios. I can see chelsea score early and then it turning out to be like testimonial football. The other scenario is i see Chelsea make a mistake & liverpool get 1-0 up…… I fancy little benybaboon to do the damage, i think he is a fantastic player… One of the few liverpool playersi would have at united

    Let the nail biting commence!!

  22. Gotta hate tiny tears says:

    Had to go to mass this morning to pay for our wedding and I lite 2 candles one for the dippers one for the champions

  23. trevor says:

    lol….GHTT

  24. Fze123 says:

    The fact that Chelsea have had a week’s rest or so is enough to give them edge. They will be high on confidence and will take advantage of Liverpool’s weak defence and tiredness. I have to say I don’t feel so confident anymore; I can only see Liverpool being thrashed on their own ground. I am all for being proved wrong though. Whichever the result is, I hope it doesn’t affect our performance against Sunderland, where we need to give it our all and play out of our skins to get the 3 points.

  25. Fze123 says:

    SAF said he would only pay £60m to bring Ronaldo back, but he wouldn’t pay that amount for anyone else. I am sure City will bid higher than that, Fergie..

  26. HARGREAVES' CURLY HAIR says:

    Well guys i hope stevie me can do one of his despairing dive acts to bail the dippers and benitez to deploy a defence like mourinho did with inter against barca.guys i know it may sound negative but that’s all they can do since they not in form and are out of sorts without ladyboy
    @Costa
    point taken mate i hope the dippers can do what they are best known for and that’s diving today so they can get something out of today’s game

  27. Slim says:

    dippers line up: no johnson, gerrard and that greek fellow in defence. i’m not even gonna bother. The pundits have got their lubricants out and are ready for a real wank fest.

    On a side note disappointed SAF said he’d pay 60m to get ronaldo back. i don’t know shit about the game compared to the gaffer, but thats one deal i’d cringe at big time

  28. arijc says:

    Gerrard is in the team.

  29. Slim says:

    stevie me is a cunt. who would have thought, Mr looserpool himself handing the title to chelsea
