Match

The wait goes on for Crawley Town

21 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

The terraces

Anger at Crawley Town spills outside the ground

It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

Match

Crawley Town cannot find the net

9 games without scoring. Strikers stop looking up, midfielders take the extra touch, and every shot that clears the bar is followed by a groan that has been building since the last goal.

Squad

Will Heater says Crawley Town went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad

Words at Crawley Town training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Fin Back is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad

Akin Odimayo in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Crawley Town this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

Match

Point won or two lost for Crawley Town?

Ninety minutes, no goals, and the argument started before the car park emptied: a point gained, or two thrown away against Salford City? Both sides of it will still be going on Thursday.

Player ratings

Dion Pereira runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 11. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

In brief
