The former Tottenham, Arsenal and Portsmouth defender quit the Coca-Cola League Two club just five weeks after signing a five-year contract reportedly worth in the region of £40,000 a week.He made only one appearance for the Magpies - a 2-1 league defeat at Morecambe last weekend.

Speaking about Campbell's decision to leave, director of football Eriksson told Sky Sports News: "I am very disappointed, very much so because we signed him and we thought we should have him for longer."

Eriksson was instrumental in bringing Campbell to Meadow Lane having managed the player during his time as England boss.

Asked if he felt personally let down by the 35-year-old, the Swede added: "Yes a little bit, but I think everybody has the same feeling - the players, the coaching staff, the directors and the fans because he is a big name and an important player."

The Football League is investigating the takeover at Meadow Lane by Munto Finance, whose money has made signings such as Campbell's possible.

Mystery surrounds who is actually behind the Switzerland-based consortium with executive chairman Peter Trembling, the former commercial director at Everton, fronting the Middle East investors.

The Football League has not yet rubber-stamped the takeover and is demanding to know the identity of the club's owners.

Eriksson revealed even he does not know who is behind the revolution at the World's oldest Football League club.

"I haven't met the people, I have only met the representatives for the owners but I am sure that everything is all right. I don't know where the money comes from, I think that's for the chairman to know, and I am not really interested in it. The important thing is that the money comes," said Eriksson.
