DJ Campbell

[budha]

Sky Sports sources understand Wigan and Blackburn have joined the race to sign QPR striker DJ Campbell.

The marksman, who will be 31 years old in November, has already been the subject of an enquiry from Watford.

QPR are prepared to let the former non-league striker go as he is now deemed surplus to requirements.

Anyway yeah, Cryer has already said he was told it was 'absolute rubbish'

[Clitherover]

Simon Jones, aka The Insider (no I've never heard of him either) from the Daily Heil, has rated it as a 3/5 chance of happening, no idea at all what he's basing that on.

We should go for Heidar Helguson from QPR. He's great at leading the line and would fit in straight away. He's getting on now but we only need temporary cover until Best is fit.

Considering I've just seen you suggest Bellamy on another thread, I'd suggest your expectations are completely off.

DJ Campbell would be a very good signing, he would guarantee goals. He just wouldn't fill the gap left by Best because he's a very different kind of striker.

His 13 goals for Blackpool in the PL prove otherwise, along with scoring 11 in 18 games for them in the Championship. You really are a clown

[Salgado Is A Hero]

Didn't Campbell score 13 goals for Blackpool in the Prem a couple of seasons ago? What's he like in the C'ship does anyone know? We do need to lower our expectations a bit though....not everyone obviously.

Suppose I could just do it myself although statistics never tell the whole story, but a striker's goal record is an important one I suppose.....2008/09 he scored 9 in 20 for Blackpool on loan......then 3 in 8 on loan for Derby the next season before 11 in 18 on loan for Blackpool later that same season......all of those were in the C'ship.

Very respectable....I have to say I was impressed when I saw him for Blackpool in the Prem although I can't remember him for QPR last season.

This would definitely be a good move. He has proved over the last few seasons that he can score at this level, and didn't do badly in the Prem.
