Brown still waits on Campbell

Hull City manager Phil Brown is beginning to think Manchester United striker Fraizer Campbell will not be rejoining the Tigers this season.
The 20-year-old played a key part in City's promotion from the Championship during his season-long loan switch to the KC Stadium last term, finding the net 15 times in 37 appearances for Brown's side.
Brown had been hoping to tempt Campbell back to the east coast, but admitted to the Hull Daily Mail: "The conversations have been ongoing ever since Fraizer left us last season.
"Sir Alex (Ferguson) has got his business to do, as we well know, and until he conducts that business, I'm presuming Fraizer Campbell is going to stay a Manchester United player.
"But he is well aware of our intentions. Where we're concerned, we've done our business and we've had the conversations with Sir Alex.
"At the end of the day, he's a Manchester United player and it's not for me to comment."
