The idea that one of the premier leagues relegated clubs will want him is for the birds. He's a 6 goal a season striker at championship level 😂 Wrexham or the like would feel much more plausible. Wrexhams strike pool, based on rumours, could be Mullin, Palmer, Fletcher, Rodriguez, Vardy….

It’ll be interesting to see. I’ve a feeling his next club will be of a stature better than our recent history. Top half championship definitely I think.

I would have liked him to have stayed but I'm not disapointed he's leaving.
It's not really worked out mainly due to him getting injured way too often - he's only played over 30 games in a season twice for us, and half the time he's not looked fit enough to last 90 minutes. If his fitness had matched his talent he'd have been a Prem player already.
I think if you put it with the comments from Schumacher that this is going to be the hardest pre-season some of these players have ever had I can see why this might have been a club decision, something tells me it's probably Campbell wanting a change and probably a better contract somewhere else. Hopefully, he goes to Spain/Italy rather than a rival.
I wish him all the best. He's the last of the relegation squad right?

Good luck Ty.
I've always liked him. Pace with rapid acceleration and quick feet, power and a decent finisher.
Michael O'Neill saw a player in him, and got the best out of him either cutting in from the right or playing off Fletcher with Powell supplying the passes. Vrancic too. Remember the early ball at QPR that set him off for a classy finish. His injury has had a big effect on his performances and confidence.
I think he's one of those who needs the system to suit him. If somebody plays to his strengths, I think they'll get the rewards.
He was obviously looking better in the last few games. A bit of match fitness and confidence makes a huge difference.

Not quick at all just rapid over first five yards I would say.

Wherever he ends up , his return simply hasn't been anywhere near good enough and doesn't warrant another contract. Ruthless if he did indeed want to stay and wasn’t asking for stupid amounts, but top and bottom of it is he’s done very little this season and and to be honest, going back some considerable time. Best of luck to Ty. He‘ll be just fine - can easily see one of the relegated lot take him. All three of Sheffield U, Burnley and Luton would take him I think. But good to see the club be ruthless.

He spends far more time injured than playing. Unless of course the offer is a pay as you play deal. Then possibly OK but only as a back up. I'd be really disappointed if we didn't bring in a decent first choice left back, a position we have neglected for far too long.

Reality is we need 2 left backs in the squad. Even if Stevens was to stay injury free it would be madness to expect 46 games from him plus cups. Guaranteed we’ll be bringing in another LB over the summer but I think we should keep him for one more year

There’s no such thing as a pay as you play deal in this league and no way Stevens would want that if he could get a regular start further down the pyramid.

Any club that takes the trouble to investigate his previous record in terms of both goals scored and injuries sustained will almost certainly be put off unless he comes with a very cheap price tag. The suggestion that a newly relegated club would look to him as some sort of saviour or that a promotion chaser would consider him to be the one to make a difference is laughable.

Little bit surprised it seems to be our call not to offer him anything meaningful. But probably not the worst call for either party. Potentially would have taken a sizeable salary offer (although maybe less than what he's been on for the last 4 yrs) to compete with the Bosman offers he knows he could get, and maybe it's time we try and go all-in on a new main man who'll be starting the bulk of games. Maybe the chances of Stansfield have gone up with Birmingham's demise Post match, Schumacher said “when he plays properly…” I think this call is the managers and he simply doesn’t trust him and what he’ll offer consistently. He’ll be one of the biggest earners and I think they probably feel he’s worth sacrificing. I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see the triumvirate of Campbell, Laurent and Baker smashed to pieces this summer. Big characters, popular lads but perhaps not serious enough in the way they go about their daily business for Schumacher?? The manager used the word ‘properly’ a lot in his post-match interview. I think it his vision to see things done ‘properly’.

If that was the case you can see why he wants pros who give everything over talented players who coast. Could be complete bollocks though.

I think the poster said 'turn into a goal machine', that is future, not past. He's 24 he's got time to develop and his record of 31 goals in 84 starts for us is not as bad as some make out. That itself is evidence that he is capable of 15 goals a season, if he can get fully fit, which is the big question with him. He only started 14 games this season and thats the main issue with him. He ain't going to contribute many goals if he's only playing less than a third of the season.

Campbell has the potential to be a goal machine at this level, but I don’t think he has the right mentality to realise it. So I think 7 or 8 for him is realistic and it was the right call to release him. It’s a shame really but good luck to him.

He ain't going to contribute many goals if he's only playing less than a third of the season. Yeah agree, and it's based on perceived future potential, not the past. People saw that potential in him years ago, and for a brief time under MON it looked like he may possibly have been fulfilling that potential, but then he got his bad injury. I saw a post somewhere, might have been in this thread, where someone said that some physio had said that an injury like Tye's can take three years to recover from. Recently Tye has shown signs that again he may possibly be about to fulfil that potential, and that would fit that timeline. So yeah, obviously we don't know, but the above, and what you say too, suggest there is something to base it on, (to answer Jesus' question), it's not irrational to say he's liable to become a goal machine.
