  Thomas McMillan Campbell (born 20 February 1935 in Glasgow; died 2018) was a Scottish footballer, who played as striker for Kilmarnock, Albion Rovers (two spells), Dundee United, Tranmere Rovers, Dumbarton and Stenhousemuir.
  
  ## Career
  
  Beginning his career with Kilmarnock, Campbell moved to Albion Rovers where scored over thirty league goals in less than sixty league matches. His goalscoring form won him a move to Dundee United where he kept up his prolific record, netting fourteen goals in just nineteen league games. This included scoring a hat-trick against Hamilton Academical in his first match for club. Crucially he also was the scorer of the only goal in a 1–0 win over Berwick Rangers on 30 April which ensured Dundee United were promoted to Division One. However, by November 1960 he had dropped out of the first team line-up. In turn, he moved to English side Tranmere Rovers but was back in Scotland within the year, having failed to score in four matches. An even shorter spell at Dumbarton followed before a further short time at Stenhousemuir preceded a final playing period Albion Rovers. Upon retiring in 1964, Campbell managed more than a goal in every two league matches over his short career.
