Opposition
Crawley Town Football Club was founded in 1896 and the club has played home games at Broadfield Stadium since 1997.
Crawley adopted professional status in 1962 and joined the Southern League the following year. For the next 20 years Crawley played in the First Division in its various guises, apart from a brief taste of Premier Division football in 1969-70. In 1983-84, under manager John Maggs, Crawley returned to the Premier Division where they remained until 2004. The club enjoyed various cup successes over the years including winning the Sussex Senior Cup in 1990 and 1991.
The club turned fully professional in 2005 but faced immediate financial difficulties and entered administration the following year. The club survived and appointed Steve Evans as a manager in May 2007. Evans led them into the Football League as champions of the Conference in 2010-11 and then secured promotion in their first season in League Two. Crawley spent three seasons in League One before relegation in 2015.
In more recent times, Crawley finished 13th in League Two at the end of 2021-21 season and in April 2022, WAGMI United acquired Crawley Town Football Club and Preston Johnson and Eben Smith became the club's co-chairmen, with current manager Scott Lindsey appointed in January 2023.
Crawley currently sit below Barrow in 22nd, on Good Friday Crawley drew 0-0 with Bradford City, with Bradford finishing the game with 10 men.
