Campbell wants FA to protect his human rights

PORTSMOUTH defender Sol Campbell believes abuse aimed at players and managers is an issue of human rights — and he has called for the Football Association to act.

Campbell was targeted by Tottenham fans at the weekend — still bearing an apparent grudge over his move from White Hart Lane to rivals Arsenal six years ago — while Pompey boss Harry Redknapp was recently abused by Aston Villa fans.

“If this happened on the street, you would be arrested,” the England centre-half told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme.
