Saw Billing on Sandbanks beach today, says he wants to return to htafc as he misses Dixon’s ice cream, the Rat & Ratchet, the view from Castle Hill and Rain..... I am thinking about returning to Huddersfield as well. I miss the grease on Cross Church Street, the smell of weed on John William Street and the fat birds fighting outside Wetherspoons.

Not really an accolade you want, bit like winning a Kathy Staff lookalike competition.

Ok, so you picked three good points out of a day in Huddersfield town centre, but there are bad ones as well.

Town had apparently agreed a fee to sell billing to Brighton last summer..
He refused the deal ..
Because he thought Brighton would probably get relegated..
Whoops..
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Whoops.. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 They would have got relegated if he’d joined them. I saw a few of his performances for Bournemouth and he was rarely engaging with the ball, either lacked confidence or couldn’t be bothered. Odd player.

Two years Two clubs Two relegations
An absolute enigma of a player. World class one week, Sunday league the next.
What's next for Philip Billing?

"can't see him bothering with division one". So your new up to the minute prediction is that he is going to retire from football?

Worked in York for several years , always thought it strange when folk slag off areas saying footballers wouldn’t come because of the town centre etc. York is one of the most beautiful cities in englland but believe me within the ring road there is some proper shit areas and scum bags , just like all cities.

So your new up to the minute prediction is that he is going to retire from football? Don't they all? No-one goes down the leagues anymore....the days of Steve Kindon and Terry Curran are gone. The old first division players used to get double the third division. Now its 500 times more!

For being a premier league footballer for the last three years.. Would you say he's played getting on for 100 games in one of the top three divisions in the world. That's not too shabby.. Remind me again what level you played to?

By the way....its 77 games in the Prem....probably 20 off the bench...and just 16 wins. Got lucky pal.

The team of the year is the best of the relegated players. Ordinarily many of the XI would get picked up by promotion sides or Saints/Sheff U et al. Those on long contracts may not now due to Covid but many will. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a good coach take Billing because there aren’t many players with his skill set and potential to dominate prem games as a he did at the start of the season alongside Lerma. Billing was mom more than once.

Did we miss out of 1 million when they were relegated? Can't wait to play them and see him skulking around.
