The company invited its employees at its Brighton and Burgess Hill offices to wear the Albion kit or blue and white clothing today (April 13), and staff decorated their offices with blue and white balloons, streamers and photos of favourite players.

Employees were given Albion branded cupcakes and the chance to win match day tickets at the Amex for the Seagull’s final home game of the 2016/2017 Championship season against Bristol.

The Seagulls are at top of the Championship table, and a win against Wolves tomorrow (Friday), and Wigan on Easter Monday could propel the team to the Premier League next season.
