Sol Campbell fumes at New Year Honours list as Rio Ferdinand and John Terry in agreement

Sol Campbell has been applauded by Rio Ferdinand, John Terry and other footballing icons for criticising the New Year's Honours list.

Campbell, 48, was once again overlooked for an honour - despite his trailblazing career. The two-time Premier League winner was the first black player to score for England in a World Cup and has also been involved in many charitable projects in recent years.

Campbell, who played for the likes of Tottenham and England, has said he will "challenge anyone who says I don't deserve" to be honoured. The New Year's Honours list has been criticised after just four Lionesses and manager Sarina Wiegman were included.
