Billy Gilmour #2 Billy’s been hiding in Portugal, let’s hope he’s not on to a hiding in Germany!

It’s hard to say, but she’s definitely meaning the Italy move by that post, isn’t she?

I’d be shocked if he asked her to move out there full time. They’ve not been together that long, seems a big ask if he has. She’ll obviously visit but I can’t see her moving out there full time. Time will tell… Wouldn’t be surprised if this is causing tension between them, most relationships would be under a strain from this situation. It’s a big commitment.

I see Napoli are putting another bid in of £12 mil plus bonuses. I think Brighton will accept that. Wonder if bid is already in and accepted hence that post tonight? Billy already agreed to move so looks like it’s happening.

It is definitely hard to say but I agree she's meaning the Italy move by posting that Insta story but I have to say it does come off to me as if she's not happy with him moving to Italy but that's she got to accept it. I definitely sense that there is tension between the 2 of them over this move I mean I could be completely wrong but that is how it is coming across to me.

I agree I'd be very shocked indeed if he has asked her to move out to Italy full time but if he has it shows he is very serious about her yet he still won't acknowledge or mention her. Exactly they haven't been together that long so it seems a big risk if he has as they could easily split up and then she would have to move back to London again. I agree she'd visit him but I can't see her moving out to Italy full time as she would miss her friends and the London lifestyle plus Naples isn't the same as Brighton and London. I definitely think it has caused tension between them as I don't think she wants him to move whereas at this moment in time he wants to do what is best for his career this will cause a lot of strain and as such I don't think it will end well as I think she will get fed up of Italy quite quickly plus if she does move to Italy with him she won't get to see her friends as often. It is a big commitment because he is fully set on the move whereas I think she is having massive doubts.

Yep, Brighton will definitely accept that but I wouldn't be surprised if they have already put the bid in and accepted it hence that quote from P tonight because I doubt she would have posted this if nothing happened. Yep, it looks like the move is definitely happening and I wouldn't be surprised if he is a Napoli player next week.

They haven’t even been living together here so how will they manage living together for first time in a foreign country?! Away from all her friends and family? Language barrier as well. More reasons I just can’t see her going there to live full time.

You’re right, Naples is very different from London and Brighton. His family will go out there for a few months to help him settle I reckon so he won’t be on his own.

Yep I reckon there’s been a big development today hence that post from her.

Exactly they aren't even living together now so I honestly can't see how they will manage living together in Italy as he will want his own space and time to himself every once in a while and she will want to go back to London every now and again to see her friends and family. Even if she does move to Italy with him I think it will cause a lot of tension between the 2 of them as I think she will get fed up very quickly and get massively homesick even though she is used to living abroad, in the end I think they will both realise that it isn't working out between them and they will go their separate ways. I honestly see her going to the odd game but I can't see her going to live their full time either as I think it will cause a lot of stress and tension between them.

As soon as he's moved to Italy I reckon his family will stay with him for a couple of months to help him settle in.

there has been a big development today and I reckon Napoli have bid for him again and Brighton have accepted it.

She’ll be hating this situation. Won’t have been in her plans at all.

Wonder if Napoli’s stadium has a state of the art players lounge and VIP seating area like the Amex for our Pheebs? His family won’t care, they’ll be in the stands regardless as they usually are.

I honestly think she's hating the situation right now hence that post from her as it comes across to me that she isn't happy about his move but that she has to accept it and that nothing she can do will change his mind. Yep, this won't have been in her plans at all and I honestly think it has caused a lot of stress and tension between them as he is all for the move whereas she doesn't want him to move and would prefer it if he stayed at Brighton.

I would imagine that Napoli's stadium has a state of the art players lounge and VIP seating area although I don't think it will be like the Amex but in saying that I have looked and I can't seem to find anything on it at the moment. Exactly his family won't be bothered though as they will be in the stands with the fans and I can imagine the atmosphere being quite electric at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona Stadium. I mean on this picture of the stadium I can't see where the players lounge or VIP seating area would be.

Yep she’ll be hating this move. Billy very keen which she’ll resent. That’s what happens when you get with a footballer, you need to be prepared for moving about. Would have been a perfect set up for her if he stayed at Brighton or went to a London club, she’ll be raging he’s had to move abroad.

Yeah I looked as well at their corporate set up but couldn’t see anything either. Did find out their stadium is named after Maradona though! Don’t know much about Napoli I’ll need to read up on them since it’s looking more likely Billy will be joining them. My dad liked Juventus back in the day, they’re the only Italian team I follow.

She will definitely be hating this move and the fact that Billy's very keen on it will have annoyed her even more I reckon. Exactly this is indeed what happens if you get with a footballer as you need to be prepared for them moving clubs as it is very likely going to happen at some point but she definitely wasn't prepared for him to move clubs so quickly into their relationship. Yep, it would have been the perfect set up for her if he had stayed at Brighton or gone to a London club as she could easily have gone to the games and then went back home again on the same day whereas with him moving abroad it will be more difficult for her to attend the games as she will have to constantly travel back and forth which I think she will quickly get fed up of doing. I agree she will be raging that he's had to move abroad as it will make it difficult for them to see each other on a constant basis.

Yep, I can't find a single thing about their corporate set up which makes me think that they don't have one. I have to admit although I know a lot about certain football clubs but I don't know much about Napoli at all except that they were officially founded in 1926 and that they won Serie A in the 2022-23 season.

Sad news about Shakey. I’ll be surprised if Billy doesn’t post about it, he was close to him when he was at Norwich.

Maybe he has other matters to attend to today

Yeah, I was honestly so shocked to hear the news as 60 is no age and if Billy was close to him when he was at Norwich I imagine he will post a tribute about him.

Exactly he probably has other matters to attend to today and that is why he hasn't posted a tribute to him yet.

It looks like Billy wasn't at training again today so it appears that Brighton have stopped him from training with the squad completely and I can't imagine him refusing to train. I honestly think Brighton are handling this situation very badly.

Yeah I noticed he wasn’t at training today. I don’t think he’d refuse to train either, not like him at all. Unless he has meetings with his agent or club about the Napoli situation? Or he’s just not training with the first team maybe?

Apparently Napoli still waiting to offload another player, so will Billy just not train again with the first team until he leaves? Seems a bit petty. If that’s the case he’ll be desperate to get the deal done asap.

P tagged herself in Winchester earlier. Maybe he’s with her? Weird location though as it’s miles away from where they both live unless they’re away somewhere for the weekend? Thought that area was flooded, hope they’ve took their wellies!

Exactly I don't think it would be in Billy's nature to refuse to train so I think it is more likely that he has had meetings with both his agent and the club about the Napoli situation it does seem strange that he's not training with the first team though as technically at this moment in time he is still a Brighton player.

It is honestly looking like Billy will not train again with the first team until he leaves and it just seems weird that he isn't training at all because as far as we know he hasn't got an injury so why on earth are Brighton being so petty and not letting him train it doesn't make any sense. If they have stopped him from training with the first team then I reckon he will be desperate to get the deal done asap as he will want to be involved in training again.

I honestly don't think he is in Winchester with her and it is definitely a weird location for her to be in because it is miles away from both London and Brighton but if he's been told that he isn't going to be involved in training etc then perhaps they have gone away for the weekend. Winchester is definitely flooded right now as both a high street and numerous roads have been closed and this is the scene from yesterday yet in P's post from today there is no flooding in sight even though the restaurant in which she is at is right in the middle of town. So, either the floods have clearly very quickly which is extremely unlikely or she went to Winchester on another day but has only just posted it now.

Yeah don’t know why they wouldn’t let him train, he’s still a Brighton player and the Napoli move isn’t set in stone!

Weird place to be spending time at right now going by that pic, isn’t it? I’d imagine his family will be down at his by now, or over the weekend at least. Don’t think Billy’s got time to be away for a dirty weekend with P at the mo what with everything going on

I honestly don't know why they wouldn't let him train either because at this moment in time he's still a Brighton player and the Napoli move isn't set in stone yet as they haven't put in their second bid in honesty it gets stranger by the minute.

It is definitely a weird place to be spending time at now especially when the Cathedral is underwater and I agree I personally think his family will be down at his either now or at the weekend as they will want to talk about the events from the last few days and what is going to happen next. Like you I don't think he's got time to be away with P right now especially with everything that is going on as he will want to see what is happening first. I mean as you can see the Cathedral is quite clearly flooded so as this is I expect the rest of Winchester to still be flooded.


By the way in the post from yesterday it also comes across to me as if she has perhaps tried to talk him out of the move to Italy but he has told her that he wants to go and then I wouldn’t be surprised if again she has tried to talk him out of it but he’s said that he's fully set on the move. I think she has then realised that although she isn’t overall happy with him moving to Italy she’s got to accept it and that nothing she can do will change his mind. I really don’t think she is overall pleased with the move as I'm fully convinced that she wanted him to stay in Brighton and I wouldn't be overall surprised if it has caused a lot of stress and tension between the 2 of them. I could be wrong but that is what I think.

Omg that flooding is really bad! What on earth is she doing there?

She’ll be far from pleased about the move. She’d much rather him stay at Brighton. I don’t know if she’s tried talking him out of it. I think it’s pointless her trying as it’s for the good of his career so she’ll need to accept it. It’s not like they’re married with a family or anything, not been seeing one another for that long so she won’t have a say in anything. The only people he’ll be listening to rn are his family and agent.

I don't get why she is in Winchester now especially when the flooding it that bad I mean it just seems a very odd to choice and I'm wondering if she was really in Winchester today.

I agree she won't be pleased about the move at all and she would definitely prefer it if he stayed in Brighton as it is easier for her to travel back and forth whereas Napoli will be completely different. I'm still on the fence as to how the post comes across but I do think she's not overall happy about him moving but it is what it is and it's for the good of his career as this move will help him to progress even further. I'll admit I was wrong I now reckon she hasn't tried talking him out of it but I definitely think the talk of moving has definitely caused tension between the 2 of them and as they have not been seeing one another long I don't believe that she has had a say in this as the only people Billy will be talking and listening to at this moment in time are his family and agent. If they had been together longer (say a year) then the situation will have been totally different as he would have spoken to her about the potential move and asked for her advice. I reckon she'll be hating this situation though as her plans will have been completely turned on its head.

I didn't realise that Brighton had sold Pascal Gross yesterday but I understand why he left especially when Dortmund is his boyhood club. I don't know about you but it feels like Brighton are making a lot of questionable decisions at the moment and I also didn't realise that in the Premier League summer window so far they have spent £85 million.

Yeah Pascal left to go back home. Great player, they’ll miss him. I see Buonanotte who is another attacking midfielder is getting loaned out to feyenoord as well potentially.

I agree they will definitely miss Pascal as he created so many chances for them and scored some very important goals. I don't get why they are sending out Buonanotte on loan as he did really well for Brighton last season I mean swear this manager has already made a number of decisions on the players that he doesn't want to keep despite the fact that he hasn't watched them play before.

It’s finally happened!! After how many months? P will be pleased! Finally being known as a WAG
