Brings a tear to the old eyes that, Was so sad the way he left us. Would love him back at the club in any way, Shape or form. Considering who he has played for and the way he talks about us, To read such sentiment about our club is fantastic, He should just get on a plane and knock on the door. What's he got to lose? Still refers to Bolton as "We". Come home Campo!!
It ain't easy, Sleazy even, Deceiving those we, Believe in.

scoring from a million miles out against spurs on the first day of the season and sending me crazy in a bar in Majorca. Priceless
Sending me crazy in the stands at the 'Bok! Still my favourite live football (ie. at the ground) moment...

I'd take Ivan back to Bolton in a heartbeat, he clearly wants to help and his experience and skill would be great for coaching right the way through the club, from the youth teams up to the 1st team squad...
Agree
Love that goal. Watched the game at a Spuds bar. Ha. Feckers. Really was shameful the way he left. Legend.

Even if he's not great tactically or he can't teach young players skills, he should still be a good person to have around, as an advisor or something like that. It doesn't have to be a senior role, just have him around the squad. I'm sure he'd bring a positive effect with him.

If it's a real letter from the man then bless him. But the letter should be written to Gartside & Eddie D.

Would be a great mascot, no need for a suit. Campo the clown(and I mean that kindly) However Bobo should he come back you may find yourself out of work
For Ivan I would step down gracefully.

I would pass my shirt to him & believe myself blessed.

Just me who thinks it would be utterly pointless?! He's a great guy and I'd gave his babies, but what exactly is this 'experience' he'd bring with him?

no, was thinking the same; he's probably my all time favourite player, but wtf would he offer the club today? the blokes just touting for work, hes using his affiliation with bwfc fans to put pressure on the club to find him somthing to do. he'll be wanting a grand or two a week for whatever it is too.

make him Kitman!?

I miss that guy! So many characters during that period and he was my favourite with all his gesticulations. We don't seem to have them at the club anymore.

I don't know what value he'd bring if he were to come here. But his affection for the club seems genuine even though he has gone about it in a rather strange way.

aye - he was a character - and lovable...

but, as far as i am concerned - that doesn't translate into having a role at the club now - even if we did have a role that was primarily about gesticulating! 8)

it's great to have players like that - even if it only promotes some kind of crowd unity in the wearing of campo wigs...

At least get him back to prop up the bar or something?

I miss him, I'm not ashamed to say.

No. I don't get it either. But then I don't get the clamour for Jimmy Phillips to be given the manager's job either.

We have a strange set of fans at Bolton.

On the one hand the scream for Gartside to "look beyond the usual managerial suspects" and "be inventive" and "look abroad for unheard of names", but on the other they just want any old bloke with a connection to Bolton to be given jobs they simply aren't qualified for.

Its all a bit "Newcastle-esque".
