I have been to crawley manytimes but always go in the away end,could we have them moved out of sussex
I have always taken the view to wish all
clubs well in Sussex as it will help the Albion
on a number of accounts.
Playing meaningful & better opposition for pre season friendlies.
To loan out fringe players to local clubs who are playing at a higher level.
For the Sussex clubs to act as a feeder club to the Albion
For Sussex to become known as a football hotbed & not just a place for players to retire too!
To create more of a footie buzz in the county.
And yes because the likes of Crawley, Eastbourne, Lewes & all are in Sussex. After all we all support the same cricket club!

Don't they still have the requirement of a 6000 capacity to get into the football league?
They took 700 to Wimbledon, and 70 to Rushden. That's all I know, as my Spurs mate follows Crawley too.
This is also true. He makes Harry Redknapp look straight and he also lacks any grace whatsoever.Crawley are managed by a disgrace of a man in Steve Evans
and apparently some of their fans hate Albion. You've got to admire their brass though. Their plan is to turn into a league club with gates of 15-20,000 by 2020. Big laughs.
Why does anyone care about Crawley? Its a horrid place, just because they are in Sussex!
Its like a Man Utd fan going to support Man City or Norwich supporting Ipswich... Get your priorities right people!!!!

No more than Brighton.Hate Crawley, believe they have a few palace supporting them aswell?

Crawley is full of Chelsea these days.
Which is pretty much what I just said.Crawley is also full of chav twats.
I've been to see them 3 times in all the 35 years I've been back in Sussex, but could not feel any form of attraction towards them, even though they're only 10 miles from me. I'm attending a course on Saturday at the Pavilion, but if I wasn't I would rather make the trip up to Tranmere than watch Crawley.
The only time I got excited was when they beat Northampton 4-2 in the FA Cup, but then I took a mate from Kettering along, who was delighted to see them turn Northampton over. I supported them against Weymouth on the Falmer action day, but that was because they had a number of ex-Albion players playing for them, including Danny Marney, who I hoped could work his way back into the Albion side.
Which is pretty much what I just said.
Actually as I've said before, Crawley gets unfairly bad press on here from some of the sneering Brighton types. At least it has industry, it's pulling down it's shittest 1960s buildings and replacing them with nice buildings, it has one of the handful of Olympic sized swimming pools in this country, it has no traffic problems etc. Far nicer than some of the armpits on the Sussex coast, IMO.
Still there, it's called Sports Direct.Haha, also they have a fantastic shop that sells trainers at cheaper than normal prices not sure if they do now, but that was the only thing I found useful when I visted el Crawlio.
No more than Brighton.
