The 45-year-old was appointed as the manager of Southend United back in October but results haven’t gone his way since he took over.
Campbell lost his first three League One games in charge and was coming in for some heavy criticism.
He would have been hoping that the FA Cup visit to Dover Athletic was the perfect opportunity to get his first win as manager but Southend fell to an embarrassing defeat to the non-league side on Sunday.
