Talking about the abuse he suffered, Campbell told The Sun: "I think some people have got away and are kind of hiding. A lot of people, when they look back, they would probably say to themselves, ‘What was I doing back then? I can’t believe I was acting like that’.
"I get the fans were being whipped up. But it’s the people who had so much - the powerful people who did nothing and just allowed it to linger, allowed it to carry on. And now they don’t want to own up, don’t want to say sorry, don’t want to say that should not have happened.
"People on TV, politicians as well, putting their five pence worth in... Everybody got involved. Everybody was allowed to get away with it. No one wants to remember how they acted and how they treated me with disdain and the way they carried on - and there was no protection.
"People with power just turned their backs, just put their heads in the sand and thought it would just go away or just, you know... time will forget. And no one has apologised. It’s really sad because obviously my family got affected and things like that.
"For me - and Luis Figo when he went between Barcelona and Real Madrid - there’s no way on that level someone could be treated again on a football field or in and around football clubs. It’s impossible."
