Darlo take John Campbell

Newcastle Benfield’s 27 goal striker John Campbell signs for Darlington FC.

Former Man City scholar John, 22, had successful trials at Swindon Town, Leyton Orient and was also invited to return for training at Scunthorpe Utd, however, it was Darlington manager Mark Cooper who swooped to sign him up.

John signed an 18 month contract with the Quakers and goes straight into their first team squad for the away game at Luton.
