Macclesfield Town were dead and buried before Sol Campbell took over the reins last November. It would be hard to provide an argument to counter that statement.It’s safe to say the former England and Arsenal defender is one of football’s most misunderstood characters.That’s probably one of the reasons why he had to wait so long to get his first break in management – something he has grasped with both hands.Campbell’s passion for the game is immense, and after many unsuccessful attempts to land a job in the Football League, his luck turned when he landed the Macclesfield gig in late 2018.getty3

It's hard to put these moments into words…See you next season @EFL UP THE SILKMEN! #ThisMeantEverything— Macclesfield Town (@thesilkmen) May 4, 2019“Who knows what the future holds but all I do know is I want to leave this club in the best possible position I can when I do eventually move on.Despite all the hurdles Campbell has faced in his short managerial spell to date, he has no regrets and says he’d still join Macclesfield if he went back in time and had to make the choice again.And he has no plan to quit anytime soon, either.“It’s so hard to get a job in football, so why would I just throw it away like that,” he declared.“I’ve worked damn hard to get into this position and I don’t want to just give it away. That isn’t me – I’m not that type of person.“I’m not giving up on Macclesfield. I’ll make it work, whatever way I have to.getty3
