Louis Storey gives interview regarding how much he is looking forward to trying league management out. He certainly got a taste. Now sacked!
Scott Lindsey re-employed as manager of Crawley with a contract until June 2028.
We are still being relegated this season but hopefully a bit of fight...
Lindsey walked when his better players were sold from under him and he couldn't persuade the owners to bring any in. Can't see him coming back.
Elliot's two coaches in charge on Saturday which leads me to believe the sacking wasn't planned.
5 managers in 3 and a bit seasons since Wagmi took...
Rob Elliot gone at Crawley.
Club statement 'We would like thank...'
Came across as a decent bloke and he was never given the tools to succeed but his record is awful.
If he pops up at your club one day be careful about judging him on his time here. He asked for some experience and physicality...
I've tried to reply to this a few times.
Scott played for us at your place earlier in the season. His contract was terminated by Crawley with no explanation. Cue the usual rumours but nothing has ever come out as to the real reason (one rumour was he was banned for 18 months for betting...
Our one and only keeper has been called up for Ghana.
As he is the only international call up we cannot get the game called off. When we play Gas in our relegation six pointer Saturday we will, I hope, have an emergency loan keeper.
Why have we only got one keeper? We crocked 3 others this...
Nice guy, Rob Elliot, said he was angry with his players after they let in 4 goals in the first 30 minutes. Imagine spending your own money and time travelling bloody miles then watching that.
Not quite sure why he is angry. The club went out and recruited players who are clearly not up to...
The ref blew for time just as we were getting back into it.
You have to laugh or else you'd cry. Hearing Elliot say how we played well for most of the match will give me a chuckle later.
I was hoping we'd go down with a bit of fight anout us. Oh well!

Saturday and tonight we played decent league 1 sides. We hang on in there but rarely cause them any problems. It's like watching a plucky non league side against a fully pro team.
I can't complain. We tried hard we gave it a go but Charlton were just too big and strong for us.
The ref allowed...
The disallowed goal at the end of the Crawley v Reading game.
From my, far from neutral, standpoint the ref cooked up big time there. Yes the ref had blown the whistle before Swan struck the shot but it seems very odd that a full time whistle is blown when a cross is coming into the box...
I tried to post earlier but my phone wouldnt let me.
Today showed why we will get rlegated and Reading will not get promoted.
Reading appeared to be going through the motions towards the end of the season. We appeared completely devoid of any ideas.
We are meant to be fighting for our lives...
As I said last week. We will play well and lose or play badly and lose.
Two strikers suspended from the incidents v Cambridge. That means either Swan (who has been playing left wing back) or John-Jules (who has not scored a goal) up front and due to injuries we will probably have a back 3 of...
I might upset some Birmingham fans here but aren't Villa the big second city club? A bit like Manure are Manchester's.
They're all bloody massive to Crawley.

Our striker, Tola Showunmi, has received a 3 match ban for an incident in the Cambridge game that was not seen by the officials.
There's a video reporting to show the incident, which if truly is the incident, is very tame. The Cambridge player is fouling Showunmi (in the box) and Showunmi...
Didn't watch Lincoln v Crawley so no comment on the game but I did watch the post match interview with Elliot.
He has finally admitted what every fan who has watched us this season has said from the start. We have no physicality,we can't stop crosses and when a cross comes in we can't defend...
Gladwin was Crawley's interim head coach when Lindsey left. This copying has gone on too much now.
With us you could tell he didn't want to be there and as soon as a new manager was announced he jumped ship.
Laraman could be a loss though. Very good coach.
Casey
We will either play well and lose or play badly and lose. Either way it's getting depressing now.
Murphy will be suspended after the sending off so Swan or Showuni will fail to score and our usual defensive masterclass will let in a couple.
