Pride comes for the …? Exactly, promotion to the Eredivisie. About 150 people in the Santpoort pub De Wildeman actually had every confidence in advance that Telstar would win from Willem II. The Zeewegbar in IJmuiden also went crazy. The club discharged the high expectations and ‘a dream became truth’. NH was in the middle of the party.
Not only in De Wildeman, but also in the Zeeweg bar, Telstar supporters went loose. An outrageous crowd welcomed their heroes after the victory: also outside the pub.
For some supporters, the tension even became a bit too much. One of them indicated that they live ‘under the lamps of Telstar’. He had to leave the sea bar, just before the victory. “Tension, I went crazy and had to go outside.”
You can see the celebration in and around the Zeewegbar below.
