Campbell - If He Can't Make An Impression At Hartlepool ...

He couldn't even get into the team at Fleetwood Town or Carlisle United ... so we can safely say the Premier League is a million miles away.

Will he leave Newcastle? As sure as God made little apples.

Former Toon striker came through the ranks at the club then moved onto Chelsea, before dropping down the leagues to Victoria Park.

He seems delighted with the loan signing, while Carlisle fans (who are experiencing the threat of non-league football themselves) are not worried that Campbell is supposedly a threat to them.

Joe Allon (talking to the Hartlepool Mail): "Adam Campbell is a great signing for Hartlepool United – I just hope he gets the chance to show what he can do at Victoria Park.

"That wasn’t the case at Fleetwood Town or Carlisle United when he was used sparingly to put it charitably.

"You do wonder why some clubs take a loan from a Premier League club sometimes and then not play the kids and wonder why they don’t get another one the next time they ask!

"If he gets goals for the Poolies then he will quickly become a hero."
