Seagulls boss hails new skipper

The former Gillingham midfielder marked his first game as the Seagulls' permanent skipper with the winner against Torquay on Saturday which set up a dream FA Cup fourth-round trip to Aston Villa."He's been great so far and he knows how important he is for the team," said Poyet."He is now the official captain of the club. I think it's important that when you name a captain you get a response, and he scored the winner. So I'm very pleased for Crofty."
