Kevin Campbell RIP SUPER KEV


Kevin joined Everton from the relative footballing wilderness at Trabzonspor, and few had expectations that he'd bring enough to see us secure safety, never mind that he would ultimately etch his name in the Everton history books.

Like many before and after him, Super Kev was touched by his time at Everton and quickly became one of us - probably even more so than most other former players and even those who had been with us much longer than he was.

As proud as he was to play for his boyhood club Arsenal, it's incredible to think that he may actually have ended his football career with his most cherished times having been at Everton.

A true loss to football and as @Drico rightly says, he now takes a deserved seat alongside other genuine Everton legends forever more.

Rest in peace Kevin.
 

Absolutely awful news 😔 so sad.

Never had the pleasure of meeting him, but seems from the ones who were lucky enough to meet him, no one had a bad word to say about him, universally liked by all accounts, a true gent.

Thoughts with his family and friends

RIP Super Kev x
