[Football] Crawley Town FC ............. Concerned?

[Steve Foster]

Poor Crawley, currently 21st in League 2 & 2-0 down. Not scoring goals, not winning matches & they don’t even have a fans forum. One of the lowest supporting clubs in the league as well.

So what’s going wrong for them? Anybody seen them this season?

Would be disappointed if Sussex second team went down to the oblivion league

Spent more on players the season they entered the pro league than every team in league 2 put together. Cash tap turned off and they are dropping back where they belong

They do have a forum. Worried? No, I think they'll stay up. They have an excellent set up for a lower division club. But they came very quickly into the league from non league, so whatever happens they have done unbelievably well. I feel confident about them.

Tin-pot team. Lousy support. Dump of a town. Sooner they're out of the league the better.

Used to go and watch them occasionally before they got into the football league. Not now.

Cox must be pretty damn useless now if he cannot even make the bench for them.

So they're not your second team then?

Just another non league club batting above their level.

As I posted earlier who will go first Cox to MM at Barnet or Kewell to the job centre or back to Oz.

If you're from Crawley then I can understand the disappointment (on every level), but if not, why would you care?

Did they?

I thought they were in the Conference Premier for quite a few seasons before getting promoted.

Their fans forum closed at the end of last season.

As a ‘well wisher’ & if you are Sussex born, lived & bred I like to follow & keep up to date as to what the other clubs are doing/fairing.

Exactly right.

I think Conference South or lower Conference is the probably the right level for them as a club.

No, from memory they were two seasons in the Conference, also came into the Conference South when a new league was formed and something like the top 12 got promoted. I could of course be wrong.

They spent 7 seasons in the conference before their promotion to the football league.

Crawley never played in the Conference South as it was formed when they won the Southern League and were promoted to the Conference (as was the normal promotion path for the winners of the Southern League at the time), a lot of sides finishing below Crawley went on to make up the new Confernce North and South Leagues the following season.

I knew I'd get corrected if I didn't google it! Thanks for the info my man, I didn't think they spent that long in the Conference, time flies and all that...

It does indeed fly, i didn’t realise the North and South leagues were introduced for the 04/05 season, I thought they’d been around 7 or 8 seasons max rather than this being their 14th season.
