Hull boss Bruce blasts QPR's DJ Campbell: Be a MAN!

Hull City boss Steve Bruce is furious with QPR striker DJ Campbell.

Bruce was angry with Campbell after he allegedly told the club he was "nipping out for lunch" but then walked out on a potential move to the KC Stadium to hold talks with Blackburn Rovers.

The whole affair left a sour taste in Bruce's mouth and he blasted the striker of a lack of professionalism.

Bruce raged to the Daily Mirror: "The total lack of respect by DJ and his agent left a bad taste. I have no problem with him going but the way they handled it is shocking.

"They said they were going for a bit of lunch, but went along the M62 and left us trying to find out where they were for a couple of hours. If they had rung and said what happened we could have all got on with our lives.

"I have been in the game for a long time and never been as disappointed as I am with their behaviour.

"It's just greed. Be a man, just inform us of your intentions."
