Campbell’s exploits at Arbroath superb but word has yet to reach Denmark!
Dick Campbell might have a twin brother Ian who he credits with much of his success, but he’s still a genuine one-off.
Two weeks ago last night he was still up speaking at a Dundee FC Hall of Fame dinner as the clock hands nudged towards midnight. His Arbroath side had an important league fixture against Angus rivals Forfar Athletic the following day but why let winning another league title get in the way of a good story? And he had plenty of them.
One of these tales Campbell told against himself and I’d already had a sneak preview since I was sitting near Morten Wieghorst, among the inductees that evening and who was clearly horrified for fear of having disrespected the great man, who’s closing in on 1,300 matches
