[Albion] Billy Gilmour.

[The Fits]

Let’s not rewrite history on this one. I’m no Fab fan but Gilmour left because a move to Napoli is very tempting. Nothing else to it.

 

[MJsGhost]

You must be one of those toadies I have started reading about.
Shame on you!
Get with the narrative:
Everything about this club is shit, and with your sort of attitude in 96/7 we would of had no club.

It's all about the details

Under this manager, no, because he wouldn’t play him.

Under any half decent manager who knows what he’s doing, absolutely we’re missing him.

I take it Conte isn't a half decent manager then?

He doesn’t play him though. The only team which wants to play Gilmour regularly is Scotland. Make of this what you will

That was my point. He's a half decent manager who doesn't pay him. Probably for a reason.

Ah, I see.

McTominay signing also made it an easier decision.

Sorry no, full disclosure as Billy was a neighbour of mine, on the Tuesday morning, he went on the Friday, I spoke to his father outside my house, he categorically stated Billy
1) Hadn’t asked for a transfer
2) Didn’t want to leave Brighton


Like Ensciso and the others, Fab just didn’t fancy him.

Harty, do you think that Tony’s footballing operation revolves solely around what the head coach thinks? That’s an open and honest question with no edge intended.

You can’t go around speaking truths it doesn’t fit the narrative

 

[Justice]

Napoli moved for Gilmour when FH’s feet were barely in the door. Gilmour wanted out once he heard Napoli wanted him.

Or do we have new evidence

I would imagine it's harder to get in the team leading Serie A than 10th in the PL. He's also moved to another country and might need time to settle

Erm, my point was that Conte IS a decent manager that doesn't play Gilmour, going against the previous poster who said that any half decent manager would be able to get a tune out of Gilmour. If you think that's stupid, then that's your prerogative.

Don’t be so harsh on yourself, you arent too bad

I think I’ve just moved into German OUT

Using your logic, he’s also the guy who bought him.

RDZ, Potter and Conte didn't fancy him for long periods too

In fairness though, you do post on the albion forum about conversations you've had with people at the club. And its not like you're under the radar, you are a well known fan. Just to be clear, I'm not saying what you've said didn't happen. But if my lad was at the Albion, and he wanted to leave and was on the verge of getting transferred, I wouldn't go about telling people, let alone a well known fan who posts info on the forum, that my son had demanded a transfer and didn't want to be at the Albion. I'd probably say the opposite, so that he could leave on good terms.

And look, I don't know how well you knew them, maybe you do completely trust what he said, and thats fair. I'm just saying, I would take what he said with a pinch of salt.

He was only under Potter for 5 mins
