Today, Brighton and Hove Albion are a model of how a football club should be run.
They punch above their weight. They unearth excellent players. And they play watchable football.
But it hasn’t always been the case. Seb Stafford-Bloor charts their rise from nearly collapsing as a football club. Craig Silcock illustrates.

Morning everyone: we got our Wills mixed up here - Will Buckley scored the double against Doncaster, not Will Hoskins. Our mistake - have a great day.

Something that’s so cool about Brighton’s rise is each manager going slightly further than the last. Hughton won promotion and kept them up with good looking football, Potter ascended to mid-table and defined the culture of attacking football and a team of young stars, De Zerbi is challenging for Europe and is entrenching that. All three have played their part magnificently,

@kuen-wahcheung1863 Год назад

Brighton were League One champions in 2010/11, the final season at Withdean, not Champions in 2011-12 which the graphic suggests. Also it was Will Buckley who scored the goals against Doncaster in the opening league game, not Hoskins.

I was born in Brighton, and while I've inherited supporting West Ham from my mother, it means a lot to see them in the PL and performing so well. I remember long chats with a friend who genuinely thought they were going to see them play their last game in the 90's

@stockportlad8560 Год назад

I'm a Stockport County fan and I went to a game at the Withdean Stadium in 2009, we'd just entered administration but were more or less safe from the drop regardless of the result barring some miraculous results meaning Crewe and Northampton would have had to score something like 7 goals each which obviously didn't happen and we lost 1-0 and whilst I was annoyed at the result, I was so pleased for Brighton staying up, I had a drink, sang some songs and generally had a proper laugh with some Brighton fans after the game, whilst I'm certainly not a Brighton 'fan', they're a club I definitely keep an eye out for. Whilst I doubt we're going anywhere near Brighton's level, it's encouraging to see how they have done and with our ground improvements starting this summer and massive investment into the club it makes me optimistic that we could become an established C'ship club one day!

@snaggiz Год назад

It’s hard to keep up the kind of growth Brighton has had, especially with the budgets that they have. But they do really conduct some quality business as well as developing players really well. The next few steps will be the hardest I think as they want to look upwards, but as a club, they have immense potential.

@Ryan-hn1it 9 месяцев назад

This short MASSIVELY undervalued Bloom’s impact. He’s changed the way in which clubs buy players. He was at the forefront of x betting patterns (the likelihood of an event in any given game) which became the xG’s that a so prevalent now. He could predict, with high certainty, what team would win. A lot of huge betting firms buy his algo’s, just because they’re so accurate. And he used that same method in buying players - working out who was undervalued. He took the concept of Moneyball and perfected it. The man is a genius, and a deadly negotiator (see Chelsea’s outlay on failed acquisitions). He might not have the financial might of the biggest clubs, but he knows far more than the heads of those clubs.

@joebond4688 Год назад

Would just like to clarify that the two goals against Doncaster in the first game at the AMEX were scored by Will Buckley, although Hoskins scored two bangers for us in his stint at the club. Great video!

@nicovanderwalt205 Год назад

Thanks for making a short and sweet summary of Brighton. I've been reading on and listening to podcasts etc to learn more about the clubs history. I'm a South African fan, started following Brighton 3 years ago, I could never prior to that find an English club I liked. I grew up loving Bayern (and my dislike for sides like Chelsea, United etc was established) but the BuLi largely became irrelevant and all my friends were always supporting EPL sides. Brighton ignited that passion in watching footy again, the joy of winning, the pain of losing, watching attractive football. Never wanting to miss a single game, always excited for the next. Never experienced this feeling with Bayern. I do love this club and I'd love to one day visit the Amex. UP THE ALBION!!!

I still don't believe that Brighton have a better scouting department than the big sides. Brighton are just more willing to give raw talents the time and patience to excel. The top 6 sides are so obsessed with immediate success they can't wait for raw talents to come good.

@hungchoonghow5857 Год назад

Exactly. Most people see it differently. It's like they got great scouts or something. It's more like they have more patience and more willing to take risks.

@TheRandomQubeofficial Год назад

They actually use data analytics to scout talent. Brighton's owner, Tony bloom formerly owned a data analytics company and they used that to identify talents across the world. Tifo has already made a video on this I guess.

@tilikumtim5562 Год назад

@@TheRandomQubeofficial Can't imagine Brighton are the only club to use data analytics when scouting players. Most clubs probably do that these days.

@dontmindme6995 Год назад

I mean they can afford to let clubs like Brighton do the work of scouting and signing raw young players, develop them into high PL quality and then sign them for 60m pounds. Sign those players themselves would mean they'd have to risk their competitiveness which is something they're apparently not willing to do. But seriously they're not even ready to give their own youngsters the game time, how do you expect them to do that with young talents from abroad who will have to settle and get used to english football first. Developing players has turned into a lower club habit, the big guns just take and don't give

@monkeysaur4305 Год назад

@@tilikumtim5562 This is true, but Brighton have an edge, because 1) the company producing the data is better at it/more thorough with it than those used by other clubs, and 2) they are the only club who get to use that data, because it effectively belongs to Tony Bloom.
