People from all over Sussex have been celebrating the triumphs of Brighton and Hove Albion this month in getting promotion as Division Two champions.

Now there is news that fans have been gathering much further afield in the unexpected surroundings of Serbia.

It appears that on the streets of Belgrade, they're talking of little else but the Seagulls and hotshot Bobby Zamora.

Sussex seems to have a strange attraction for east Europeans. Former Albion director Sir Norman Wisdom became a comedy icon in Albania.

Now many people in Serbia are deserting Red Star Belgrade to support blue stripe Brighton.
