I thought it was quite amusing because the lad was very passionate talking about Crawley in the interview but wearing a jacket with another teams badge.

Well, I’m going to buck the trend and say it’s sad they’re down. Always a tall order given their comparative meagre resources. Rovers should be a solid L1 side, even Championship. They’ll be very disappointed to be back in L2 again. Poor Calders.

Have to say that I really enjoyed watching Crawley when their L1 matches were on sky sports+. It was like watching a game of bagatelle, very entertaining, but in fairness they did play some terrific football at times.

Crawley will be much better off in League 2 where their infrastructure and finances will allow them to win a few more games than they lose. If you really hated Crawley and their fans, you'd have wanted them to survive this season by their fingernails and face another season of constant batterings - it drains the life out of a fanbase these endless relegation battles where you know you really can't compete properly. They had the lowest wage bill in League 1 by a vast margin.
Crawley remain at the crossroads, historically they aren't any bigger club than the likes of Worthing or Hastings but they've dragged themselves up to compete at a ridiculously high level for them, even League 2 football remains a fairytale from where they were two decades ago when they were owned by a pair of proper crooks. But to go higher they need a new stadium and that requires a fair bit of cash, which they probably don't have. That said, they are stirring up a bit of support in north Sussex, their crowds have doubled in the past two seasons and not many fanbases can say they've set their record attendance total across a season while getting relegated. They could bounce back to League 1 next season but it would be wiser for them to grow their club infrastructure first before setting themselves up to hit another financial brick wall
