Scott Malone hands in a written request
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Crawley Town can pretend not to have heard.

Tempers go at Crawley Town
Lewis Richards was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.
The terraces24 Aug 2026
The crowd has taken to Malcolm Ebiowei
At 23 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Words at Crawley Town training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jay Williams 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.

Malcolm Ebiowei stands above it all
Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.54 on the card, and the Crawley Town support went home talking about one name.

Jacob Chapman left out for tactical reasons at Crawley Town
The shape wanted a different profile against this opponent, which is a real football answer and no comfort at all to the man it is about. He did nothing wrong and he did not play.
Match22 Aug 2026
Crawley Town draw a blank against Oldham Athletic
The crowd waited for a goal that never came. Oldham Athletic defended in numbers and left with what they came for, and the two sides could be playing still without troubling a scorer.

Nobody could get near Dion Pereira
Successful dribbles: 8. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
Market24 Aug 2026
Talks stall between Crawley Town and Andrew Brown
“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.
