Elliot Bennett SIGNS

[macky]

Wolves fans on 606 are sad to see him go they seem to rate him highly. Also the people saying could have done better, another reject, why anther winger? f*** off and support someone else. Idiots.

do you think that they really support us at all
dont tyhink they understand football at all

 

[blue and white army]

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Cox's natural position centre midfield

 

[gruntage]

i like the fact he played all 48 league games last season for Bury i.e no injury prone... (i know saying this will now make him snap a leg)

 

[jharris]

Don't understand why everyone keeps thinking this is the end of Cox ?.
Cox plays mainly on the left wing or sometimes behind the front man, Bennett and Wright are right wingers, surely they will battle it out between them. Don't forget Wright can play on the left if Cox is playing in the hole !!!.

48 league games in one season is pretty impressive, I'll grant you that.

Albion boss Russell Slade has completed the signing of Wolverhampton Wanderers exciting young winger Elliott Bennett.

The 20-year-old right-sided midfielder joins Albion for an undisclosed fee, signing a three-year deal, and goes into the squad for Saturday's game against Stockport County.

He said, "Elliott is someone we have been after for a while, and he is certainly one for the future; he is a lively wide player, with good pace and is an exciting young prospect.

"Mick McCarthy and Wolves were reluctant to let him go - but Elliott spent last season at Bury, and got the taste for playing each week, and he was keen to come to Brighton, where he'll get more opportunities to do that.

"With that in mind, the chairman and I have perserved throughout the close season, to the point where Wolves were probably getting fed up with us, but I am delighted that perserverence has now paid off."

Bennett spent a season and a half on loan with Bury, where he made over 65 appearances for the Shakers. After impressing during a three-month spell at the end of 2007/08, the winger spent last season on loan at Gigg Lane.

He made two senior appearances for Wolves, both in the League Cup at the start of 2007/08; he's also spent time on loan with Crewe Alexandra in League One.

Telford-born Bennett will wear squad number 26 at Albion, and will link up with his new team-mates today for training at Withdean, ahead of Saturday's match.

Well it worked like a dream at Brentford.
He almost touched the ball once.

 

[Napper]

This could be ok. Need wingers despite what previous posters say.

Now for the loan left back please Slade

 

[sir albion]

I normally moan about signings but i think this lad has very good potential
Its when we sign league 1 rejects who are on a downward spiral that pisses me off

Hope cox goes as he is far to inconsistant

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Er, why?

Surely any team that reaches the play-offs play a minmum of 48 games with the 2 finalists playing 49??
