The 2005-06 campaign was a season of profound struggle and ultimate disappointment for Brighton & Hove Albion as The Seagulls finished a crushing 24th in the Championship, resulting in relegation to League One. Despite the efforts of Colin Kazim-Richards, who finished as top scorer with 6 goals, the club’s poor form saw them relegated two games before the end of the season, ending a two-year stay in the second tier and returning them to the third.
