I think not because TB is adamant that we do not need to sell him.
I think he'll stay.

yet another thread by a Norwich troll and we think they must be right despite Gus saying he is staying put?
perhaps the coach back from Watford did a detour via Norwich and dropped him off

He wants to but its maybe too late in the month. Had he handed his transfer request in mid month it may have happened. So, no!

Wishful thinking or selective hearing/reading? As far as I am aware neither Gus nor TB have said he is staying, if they have please point me to it. I have seen we don't need to sell and we don't want to sell but not that we WON'T sell. It is the ambivelence that worries me

Dont let it worry you! if he goes we will get a fair wodge for him and we have other good players to come up to the mark.....Noone, Bridcut, Lua Lua
? If he stays he is a good professional and will perform to his best. I hope he stays but what will be will be and we will move on.

I know how you all feel, because we had it with Dean Ashton, but you can relax, imo, he'll stay with you.

After TB's comments that he is not going and the fact that he has just signed a long contract I would be extemely upset if he went.
How the hell can we keep any player!

Barrel of Fun
Abort, retry, fail
Probably, on the proviso that Gus has someone lined up to take his place. I can't see us risking our league push, when our chairman has come out and said that we don't necessarily need to sell him.

He obviously fancies the move but I really think that Bloom and Gus have a lot in their favour:
- We aren't desperate for cash.
- Long term contract.
- Gus has already said Elliott is the model pro so no worries about his reaction if he isn't allowed to move.
- On top of that I think we have a decent chance of convincing him to stick around until at least the summer and then surely the lure of falmer will be stronger and he may even stay past then.
All in all I think Bloom and Poyet should put their foot down due to how late it is in the window. I'm sure Gus has a plan if Bennett goes (maybe this lad on trial and Nooney to replace?) but surely we don't have time to spend the fee we will receive.
