Elliott Bennett is still an Albion player.

The transfer window has closed and the Seagulls have thwarted persistent attempts by Norwich to sign their influential winger.

Boss Gus Poyet admitted: "It's an absolute relief, great news for me as the manager."

See tomorrow's Argus for the full story, plus former manager Russell Slade's thoughts on Bennett and why captain Gordon Greer feels for team-mate Tommy Elphick.

The article's timed at 11pm. You have a direct line to the goings on then?

Buzzzing! Great to see the main talent of the squad has stayed; stay relatively injury free and we should be up through the automatics! just get murray on a contract then we will be sorted!

So can we safely assume that is that?

Because deals concluded before the deadline have been known to be announced the next day. So if this is a proper Argus story, and they have spoken to Poyet in the last eleven minutes, then I will be happy.

You're a f***ing dick head.

kick ass! Wonder how many last minute bids we turned down. If the rumour that we turned down a premiership team is true, I wonder who that team was?

Never doubt Mr Bloom.

Thought everyone hated Andy Naylor and the Argus and he got all his exclusives from NSC blah blah? We'll, it's all gone quiet over here hasn't it?!! Hope all those that slate our local and their football correspondent are now choking on the humble pie they ought to eating for the rest of the season. Show some respect in future you idiots.
