I agree. Winning 2 games on the spin is not what class as a revival especially as they were both home games against Brighton and Villa. They are still well and truly in the mire. But going from bottom to 16th isn't? If it was town we'd be doing hoola hoops. Not cartwheels? 22,000 Town fans gyrating their hips would be quite the sight. It could trend as the new 'Poznan' celebration.

Eddie is keen to keep him in the shop window. The scouts from Bury have been enticed down to the South Coast with promises of 18hrs of sunshine and a free nights pitch at the camp site... Only scouts from Bury are of the dib dib dib variety these days I'm afraid. You asked me for a date when he would no longer be a Prem player...I said August....and that was without Corona....reckon I still have a shout. All the ex Prem players for Town seem to be at troubled clubs or are they troubled clubs because they have ex-Town players? Loewe, Billing, Sabiri, Mooy, Zanka...on and on. Perennial losers.

Watch it, I got told off for suggesting the ex Town players are at clubs better than Town last week!!

I agree with Oti that they're all troubled clubs cos they have ex Town players there. Clearly that's why their respective clubs are struggling. It's so obvious.

If that camel gets picked for England in a major championship then we're fucked.

This is like Saudi Arabia resurrecting a thread about human rights Funny how the trolls resurrect all my posts years later to deride though. The Olympic one for starters....which I said was a trade and made money. No mention of me saying back away teams and outsiders in the Champs, Prem and top leagues in empty stadiums. You would we sitting in clover with that nugget had you bet. Billing....one of the main reasons Muff will be relegated.

If Bournemouth go down, Billing won’t be there at the start of next season.
He’s easily good enough to play for a team like Everton.

Maybe a promoted side would take a punt on him but they'd soon see him for what he is. He's 24 now and has made 108 appearances at first team level and scored 6 goals. That's woeful. If he was as good as some on here think he is he would have made a full appearance for Denmark by now. Almost as overrated as Pritchard.

He’d be bought on being one of the divisions leading tackle maker/opposition half interceptor/aerial duel winner.

He might end up staying at Bournemouth in whatever division they’re in, but it won’t be because of his stats, because his stats are close to phenomenal. For midfielders in the premier league he is top five in all but one of the six defensive categories (for tackles he’s 9th). Anyone who still thinks he doesn’t belong at that level knows nothing about football or has an underlying bias they should probably have a look at.

He never wins headers though? 6 foot 3 and I don't think I've ever seen the lazy bastard win one.

Add those stats to his age, the fact that he’s left-footed and counts as homegrown, and I guarantee he’ll be on every head scout’s list outside of the top six.

He was in full stroll mode last night.. Watch the highlights.. 2nd goal he’s marking long staff.. But drifts in to no mans land and longstaff scores from rebound.. Subbed at half time.. Would love it if he got relegated .. Again.. Absolutely love it.. 😍

Because he’s third in the league for headed clearances and aerial battles won....

He was very poor in the air when he was here, I couldn't really care less about what he's doing at Bournemouth. Well last year (when, as I’m sure your aware, he was playing for us) he was 2nd in the league for aerial challenges won. So, again, check your biases, don’t listen to received wisdom/your daft mates, or watch more closely....
