And there are more!

Most headlines say the same thing:

34 ปีที่รอคอย! ไบรท์ตันเลื่อนชั้นพรีเมียร์ลีกแล้ว = 34 years waiting! Brighton promoted to the Premier League.

Murphy was interviewed in the Glasgow Evening News ....

They call us "Brighton Albion", and think Tony Bloom has owned us for 20 years conveniently forgetting Dick Knight

May calling an election hasn't helped our cause !!

The google translated version is rather funny in parts.

And when the time-up whistle rang and the promotion was decided, it became a situation in which the fans began to hit the pitch.

Antoni Knocker Try Selphy in the best situation! It is memories of my life.

In the last 34 years I fought 1545 games, and finally I got a right to sacrifice my deep appreciation. (Is the writer angling for loyalty points?)

Fairly brief on the Dutch news, and as usual they are mostly concerned with the Dutch connections:

I'd be interested to see what the Israeli press made of it given Kayal and Hemed's centrality within our squad, but can't seem to find anything.

Enlightening read....

Peruvian TV have even covered it, showing celebration scenes of the players crowd surfing on the trains . They love that kind of thing over there.

This feature appeared on TV3 yesterday's 6.00pm news

A similar piece appeared also on TVNZ including an interview with Rosenior

A much better in-depth piece in my local paper. Even manages a mention for Hans Kraaij and FDM: http://www.ed.nl/buitenlands-voetba...erst-in-34-jaar-naar-hoogste-niveau~a256b13f/

Google Translate offered me this: "Brighton was offered a £ 20m bid for the transfer fee, with lieutenant champions Louise Dunk, Dale Stevens and Anthony Nykaert, all hoping for a promotion to the Premier League after rejecting all of them."

Funny enough there was nothing on teletext yesterday (yes i know it is old and cr*p) but they did manage a Harry Rednapp story. No mention of Plymouth either....

Our promotion got a small article in today's Gazzetta dello Sport in italy:

View attachment 84415

They seem to think we're dreaming of playing derbies against Bournemouth and Southampton... otherwise a good read.

Bearing in mind that there are fans of Serie A teams who have to travel 1,000 miles to see an away game, a trip to Bournemouth is relatively local.

Brief piece in New York Times - need to scroll down to 'Soccer'

I like that we "flooded the field" !

I have a feeling that if it was a Louise Dunk that had been stripped to her underwear during the pitch invasion the headlines may have been somewhat less charitable!
