This is our 8th best ever finish in the football hierarchy.

I agree.
Absolutely disgusting. Sack the manager, sack all the players, sack TB.....we're doomed, we're all doomed.

This is Brighton. We are entitled. We walk the league, every year, every league -- else heads roll.
We are owed it.
Not like Liverpool fans, or ManU fans, who only pretend to have it owed. We are owed it in fact.
Other outcomes are not consonant with a well-run universe.

Same old shit comparing Withdean, Gillingham and even Goldstone Brighton to now. Move on, we should be doing better

Our matchday income is 12th in England : we finished 26th in England

And probably 1 of most negative and boring to watch.
If you are always prepared to accept second best, then YES we are brilliant.....

Bollocks. Anyone in the PL earns a 100 times our match day income just for being in the proxy competition

We were truly dire for years in the 90's. You've either got a short memory or are aged about 15.

Yep 15. That'll be it.
Don't remember having the resources and players we've got now in the 90's.
Then again I wouldn't as I wasn't around then.
It's actually our joint seventh best season: we're 26th in the league hierarchy, same as in 1977/78. We then had five seasons higher, the promotion year of 1979 and four seasons in the first division from 1979 to 1983. Then we had last season as 24th in the hierarchy
What a shocker

Quite - football is all about momentum, the quality of the football has gone backwards this past season and along with it the entertainment factor. I think we should be keeping up with the likes of Burnley and Derby.

To paraphrase Field of Dreams...
"Build it and they will come. They'll then f*cking winge that it's not good enough and demand more!"

Oh right, so we should be keeping up with Derby and Burnley but we should take for granted that we finish above Reading, Middlesbrough, Birmingham City, Nottingham Forest, Bolton, Sheff Weds, Ipswich and Leeds.
Or how about just accept that getting us to 6th place in his first season in the job with someone else's team and no summer to bring his own players in, qualifies as a half decent season?

I don't buy this at all. He did have some pre-season. The January window was a total bust. Most of those teams you mention have smaller crowds or are run by total dick heads. The football this season has been tedious.
Half decent, maybe? But it's not been much fun
Pre-season? He had about 6 weeks! And really, smaller crowds don't mean shìt. Some of those have parachute payments that dwarf the income from the extra 2,000-5,000 we get at the gate.
Whoever is in charge next season needs to get some pace into our team. I think that's where we're lacking, and if it means selling some of the family silver (Ulloa or whoever) to bring some in, then so be it.

Couldn't agree more. Except for the Ulloa part.
If it were me, I'd be shipping out:
Agustien - Just collecting wages for whatever reason
Orlandi - Hasn't been himself all season
Buckley - Usually one sprint away from tweaking his hamstring
We'd have to strengthen in the midfield but we've got enough cover for Buckley already.
