Having supported The Seagulls for about 45 years I would like to congratulate them on gaining promotion to Division 1 with very limited resources.

Now is the time for Brighton and Hove City Council to get behind the club, and push John Prescott into making the decision on the new stadium at Falmer.

It is now a must, with 30,000 travelling to the Millenium Stadium for the play-off final showing how much support there is for the team.

I wish them all the luck in Division 1 next season and hope they can establish themselves there.
