"And if it is ever proven true that John Terry was chosen over Rio because of race then I would tell the FA that they can take back my 73 caps and scrub my name out of the record books. I would no
longer want to be known as someone who played for England – that would be the end for me."
-- Former England defender Sol Campbell on the controversy surrounding
defender Rio Ferdinand being left out of England's Euro 2012 squad. John Terry goes to trial in July for allegedly racially abusing Rio's brother,
Anton, during an English Premier League game last October. England coach Roy Hodgson has insisted Rio Ferdinand was left out of the squad for purely soccer reasons.
