Brighton & Hove Albion formed in 1901 and have spent most of their time in the lower leagues of English Football. After spending 95 years at the Goldstone Ground, the stadium was controversially sold by majority shareholder Bill Archer and his chief executive David Bellotti, with the club seeing little to no money from the sale.
After flirting with administration and almost being relegated from the English Football League entirely, The Seagulls found their feet, or wings, in the noughties, winning successive promotions and moving up from division three to division one in five years, starting their ascendancy through the leagues. They were close to being promoted to the Premier League from 2012-2016, achieving 3 playoff placements in 4 seasons, but failing to gain promotion.
In the 2016-2017 season The Seagulls went on an 18 unbeaten run, and after breaking transfer records over the summer, clinched promotion to the Premier League via the automatic promotion places, finishing 2nd. The Albion currently play football in the Premier League, and after a successful debut season in the league, have had an inconsistent experience in the incredibly competitive top tier of English football.
