    We have just lost to top of the league that have spent millions of pounds. We are 19 points clear of the relegation zone. We have the best manager we have had at oakwell for years. We learn the lessons and move onto Huddersfield next week. Yes it probably is season over but if you told me our season would be finished at the end of February with us safe i would have taken that straight away!!

    you poor deluded soul, you have it all so wrong

    running the club within our means, finding obscure players and developing them to much better standards. top ten in the league..... no mate you are so wrong, this is just not good enough.... go and stand on the naughty step.

    We lost £1 million last season apparently.

    We have loads of money though we should have blown it all in the January window when players prices are massively over priced. Even though our chances of making the play offs were slim and we were more or less safe.

    Agree completely. Some people on here are deluded beyond belief. Brighton are a very strong side & top on merit. We matched them for most of the game but it's fine margins at this level. Officials missed a blatant pen for us at 0 0 and if that is given we could've seen a different result altogether. Hammil's miss at 1 0 was also crucial. No need to be too harsh on anyone. We're punching way higher than anyone dared to dream.
    We go again next week against Huddersfield.....

    Re: you poor deluded soul, you have it all so wrong

    If we got money for Lee Jay got to the final of the jpt and the prize money that comes with it. The play off final and then promotion if we still lost 1 million we should just call it a day because that is quite scary

    it will be interesting to see the accounts. that was league 1. I'm more interested in the May 2017 accounts in the Championship but unfortunately they won't be available until Feb 2018

    After the firesale last month the play offs were over then. Now it's a case of roll on the season being over for a few months as we have little to play for and barely anyone in our squad will still be here next season.

    Agree. On both counts. If we aren't at least breaking even this season, excluding transfers, the game truly is ****ed

    Why not angus, robo, yiadom who are our best 3 laikers all have contracts that run until the end of next season. We had a slim chance of the play offs even with the players we sold. Bree was just potential he wasn't even our best full back. We have money to spend in the summer when the prices of players aren't as inflated. Cheer up

    Christ, you're a right laugh you. I don't want this season to end. It's been glorious. We are normally looking over our shoulders at the bottom 3.
    We have a cracker next Saturday to look forward to. And plenty more games too. Try to enjoy it, you might like it.

    Re: you poor deluded soul, you have it all so wrong

    If we should call it a day then what should the teams losing £50 million do??! £1 million is nothing compared to some teams' debts

    I doubt they will sign new contracts so if we've learned from last month all three will be sold as we will get more for them with 12 months left not six and won't be as disrupted halfway through the season. Six loanees going back. Watkins and Scowen will get more money elsewhere. Others I don't see a future at us. Could be having to bring in 12-15 new players in the summer.

    And isn't it great being able to play without having to worry about relegation and just being able to enjoy ourselves and push as high as we can? And if players leave, so be it. We'll find new ones, as we have done the last two transfer windows

    Thank god.........thought I'd gone to a different match! Before and at half time. we were saying how good Brighton are and would be made up with a point. I thought second half they went from good to very good. Knockeart was superb, he has to be one of the stand out players in this league.
    I thought we played well overall and do not mind (that much) losing today. We applied ourselves to the best of our ability but were beaten by a class side. I also thought some our football in parts were the best id seen this season, keep it up reds, we wont meet a team as good as them every week.
    Next.....................

    I thought they were very very poor and we were n worse than them until they score and we took our only attacking threat off

    Well it's an expensive business running a football club, especially in League One with less incoming. This season's figures should be far more positive
