It’s only two years since the veteran boss led the Red Lichties to the League 2 crown and they are now celebrating a return to the second tier for the first time in 16 years.
Arbroath finished the season seven points clear of closest challengers Forfar Athletic, with Raith Rovers a further three points back in third spot.
Under Campbell the Red Lichties were top of League 1 from the start, scored 63 goals and lost just six out of 36 games – the majority of those defeats coming after they had built up a big lead.
