Everyone is entitled to an opinion but id wager the vast majority of those slamming Campbell were the same ones foaming at the mouth about Butler last year and wanting him gone before Xmas. They are probably the same ones who had the pitch forks ready after the app frod pre season game calling butler every name under the sun.
Patience required, for now.

Harsh on Campbell. It was only half a mistake really.
It was a crowded box, he had to come through bodies. He got something on it just not enough.
When the play is that congested in the 6 yard box it’s hard for a keeper – ideally they want their centre halves attacking the ball rather than have commit to a bit of a lottery coming through bodies.
He did make a couple of good saves late on so you might say he didn’t have a bad game.
He also made a crucial save at Tamworth late on and prior to the error against Woking was having a solid enough game (and it didn’t cost us anything apart from a clean sheet).
If every player is going to be castigated for every single error or half error they make then it will be a long and miserable season. They are all playing 5th tier football for a reason.
Judge him when he’s had a dozen or so games on the bounce. Whether he is of the standard remains to be seen but he seems to be getting unnecessarily hammered on fairly scant evidence over a very short period of time.

Surely a piss poor start doesn’t include the late saves yesterday which a lot of fans are applauding him for? Don’t think you can have it both ways, we win our first three games and late saves by Maison against Tamworth and Sutton have allowed that to happen, always two sides to every story. Yes he’s made mistakes but they haven’t cost us games and yes his saves in two of those three games have enabled us to win, facts are facts, so far the facts support him as doing ok.

What absolute tosh. We’ve won 3 games and you want ro have a go about the keeper

You prepared to give Maison one last go is very noble and generous of you les, more proof for me to say thank goodness AB is manager and you aren’t les. I’m just being an honest ordinary fan here BTW.

I’m sorry but both those goals were down to poor marking by our much vaunted centre backs,are we seriously expected to blame the keeper for a poor defensive header and two unmarked strikers for the 1st and 2nd goal respectively.Give over Les,it was awful defending not poor keeping .

Fitz would have done worse
I presume this is a joke because it’s clearly “unprovable” This consistent doing down of the best keeper (by some way) in the NLN last season is becoming tedious. He’s not a world beater but he’s good, better than we have now, and deserving of a step up to the EFL.

26 clean sheets told some sort of story.

A bit like people not remembering our super striker played in most of the games in our bad patch when they were screaming for Butler’s head
You really do talk utter codswallop. He was out injured for a lot of those games and it also coincided with signing Beck and then playing a returning Whitehall as a bizarre no.10. His two goals off the bench away at Marine arguably ended that bad patch and saved our season.
