Knott's right for Bowers

Midfielder Billy moves in from Chelmsford


Chelmsford City midfielder Billy Knott has been revealed as a new signing for Pitching In Premier Bowers and Pitsea.

Billy, from Canvey Island originally, is widely travelled, having had a youth career that spanned Concord Rangers, West Ham United and Chelsea. He then moved to the North East of England (almost as cold as Canvey in winter), where he signed for Sunderland, and whilst with the Black Cats had loan time at AFC Wimbledon, Wycombe Wanderers and Woking, before ruining the alliteration by trying Port Vale next.

It didn't work out for him at the Stadium of Light, so he moved a little further south to Bradford City, and after leaving Valley Parade played for Gillingham, Rochdale and Lincoln City.

He returned to his roots with Concord Rangers in 2018, and spent last season at Chelmsford City.
