The 2013–14 season was Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club's third consecutive season in the Championship. It was their first season under the management of Óscar García following the suspension and sacking of Gus Poyet in the summer. Brighton reached the playoffs for a second consecutive season after finishing 6th, however after losing 6–2 on aggregate to Derby County in the semi-finals Garcia resigned as manager.
