As already said his twitter is great, allways takes time to reply to fans ! Great guy, light the club up in dark times, and he seem to care ! Loved super kev

...Campbell was ok in the scheme of things, certainly played a part in keeping us in the top flight for which we should always be thankful.

I'm not feeling the love for Super Kev here Eggs ?

He was boss. Shame about his knee injury which slowed him down a bit, but a measure of how good a player he was that he evolved into more of a target man.

Lol.

One is a snake who stole a living, the other saved a club that he had no intial affinity with, from relegation all by himself.

Strange.

Dark times back then, but super Kev was a ray of light for us. Just wonder how good his record for us would of been, if he had been served by higher-quality players around him.

Am amazed that in an era when the likes of Emile Heskey and Darius Vassell won dozens of caps for England, Kev was constantly ignored for the national side. Ridiculous.

...he was smashing for us and deserves great credit for helping keep us in the top flight. Fond memories but I wouldn't put him with Everton's finest.

The most important player we ever signed.We would have been relegated if it wasn't for Super Kev arriving on loan.

What I loved about him was that from the word go he conveyed a sort of "you guys do know you are Everton don't you and that means something big " confidence even though everything else was pointing to another last day struggle, or worse. We were terrible!
Came out of nowhere, owed us nothing, grabbed us by throat and got people to believe we could escape, intelligent footballer too and obviously got Everton too. If Wenger had re-signed him he would have got his money's worth out of Jeffers!!!
Loved Super Kev!!

..I do, Matey.

I absolutely get all the feelings for Kevin Campbell and fully share my appreciation for what he did for our club. I suppose for me he's a reminder of some very dark days even if it wasn't for him would've got even darker. Good on you KC.

Don't underestimate how far he moved us forwards with regards to ridding us of the " Everton are white tag ".

Plus he didn't do it by getting on his soap box, he did it by simply being himself on and off the pitch.

* he wasn't perfect though, as he signed that uber bellend Mark Morrison to his short lived record label after he retired lol

And what a great target man too. Best forward at holding the ball up and laying off I ever saw in Everton blue.
