    Anyone going to become a Crawley fan for the day ?

    Sorry, what's unfair about us playing Man Utd having beaten Newport County away, Guiseley away, Swindon away, Derby County at home and Torquay away? Doesn't that give us a right to be in the 5th round draw? Or do you think that because Steve Evans was convicted of fraud at Boston 5 years ago...

    Anyone going to become a Crawley fan for the day ?

    I'll be there :-) Having supported Crawley since 1984, most of that time being in the Southern League, this is a fairytale come true. Hopefully we'll take 10,000 fans up there, no doubt get stuffed 5 or 6-0, have a great weekend, and the club will be £1m better off for it. Not looking like...

    FA Cup 5th Round Draw

    Have to say that most Crawley fans are quite pleased with the draw!! :-) Should be worth £750k at least, maybe £1m if it's selected for TV. Need to find out how much we get if we win........ Congrats to Brighton for their win yesterday, a great day for Sussex. Sorry that the draw wasn't better...

    Crawley Love In - Why?

    We had 4 players that started the game last night that were signed for fees, Neilson (£50k), Torres (£50k), Tubbs (£70k), McFadzean (£100k). That's £270k. Not really more than Derby's team is it? :-) And we've earned about £550,000 from our FA Cup run so far, so you could argue that the money...

    Crawley Love In - Why?

    Crawley fan here, this is utter rubbish. The club and the fans were all 100% behind the idea of groundsharing with Brighton, there were only upsides for Crawley: (a) Contribution from Brighton to improve the ground (b) Opportunity to strengthen ties with a football league team, which could...

    Well done Crawley Town. (Merged)

    There were 2,995 fans there, about 270 from Crawley. A good match report here: Swindon Town 2 Crawley Town 3; aet: match report - Telegraph Looks as though Crawley v Brighton will have to wait for the 4th round proper this year :-) Good luck tomorrow.

    Crawley Player Ratings

    Rayner 9 Rusk 6 Wright 9 Quinn 7 Rents 8 Pinault 9 Wilson 7 McRae 6 Forrest 6 Killeen 7 Cook 8 (I'm guessing you want the Brighton player ratings but the thread title isn't clear so these are the Crawley ones). If you want a quality midfielder look no further than Thomas Pinault, I'm sure a...

    Crawley v Brighton and Hove Albion *OFFICIAL* Match Thread.

    As a regular at the Broadfield Stadium I can assure you that there were more than the 950 or so announced, closer to 1,500 I would have said, good turnout from the Albion fans though, certainly had 50% of the crowd. I think the Crawley turn out was low as it's the 3rd home game in 6 days and at...

    Which Sussex team would you most like to see join the Albion in the league?

    Good to see that idiots get everywhere! Hopefully the respect for Crawley has come because we're demonstrating ambition both on and off the pitch in terms of (a) Progression into the Conference (b) the support base we're building amongst the local community (4,000+ members of the Junior Reds...

    Albion Reserves 0 Crawley 2

    Wasn't at the game tonight though - for the record, the Crawley team consisted of 4 players who are likely to be in our first choice 16 (though they would be the 4 on the bench) - Hemsley, Judge, Marney and Tait. Manuella and Traynor are probably choices 17 and 18 right now, with Mark Fox (who...
