Campbell: 'I can't wait to get going'

Campbell, 44, signed an 18-month contract as manager of the Football League's bottom side, Macclesfield Town, this week, and "cannot wait to get going".

In an interview with 'Silkmen TV', the former Tottenham and Arsenal defender remarked: "It is a great privilege for me to be here, I can't wait to get going. It has been a long time.

"Football is in my blood, I want to be a part of football again and this is my first step into a managerial post.

"For me, I see potential, I see growth, I see people fighting to do the right things.

"I have just got here, [but] all the people around here are very friendly, [there is] great history with the club and for me being a part of football again is what it is all about.

"I am raring to go and ready for the challenge. I know it is going to be a challenge, but that is what I am all about.

"There is going to be organisation. As a player I always had drive and detail in my game, looking at all scenarios.

"Hopefully I will give them a lift, get the team spirit really solid and get everyone fighting for each other on the pitch in the right way.

"For me that is what it is all about, for me every game is almost like a cup final and that is how I want the mentality going on the pitch."
