"Struggling Crawley have signed former Aldershot striker Hassan Sulaiman and are keen to bring in more players." BBC....

So how do they do it?

Crawley came out of Administration back in November.  Their owners just sell a few extra wraps and poppers and hey presto, a new defender/winger/striker.

Watch out for a new character down there who may make an appearance soon, via. Soho, London

I assume that by wraps and poppers you are referring to a Fried Chicken Emporium :-\

Yes if they are the same as night clubs/drug money laundering empires?

Its a bit harsh, how can you say these things when you know absolutely nothing about them? I mean really, do you think its fair to associate these people with that most disgusting of trades: the fried chicken business.

If it is true, they should be hung for it. The ammount of drunken student nights out that have ended with my health being taken advantage of by fried chicken emporia owners!

I hope for their sakes its only drugs and clubs, otherwise i dont know how they sleep!

I'm sorry for impugning the reputation of those fine upstanding folk of Crawley Town by irresponsibly, and with no evidence whatsover associating them with the evil trade which is Fried Chicken Emporia. Please Peake me immediately :'( :'(

Actually a goodwin was clipped round your ear there for good humour, even with the mention of my hazy, lazy student past!

Talking to one of your fans after our game the other Tuesday, he said one of your directors was on the Conference board and it was most likely Crawley would not be playing in the Conference next season, whether they're in the bottom four or not.

Does anyone know anymore about this? (He says, clinging to hope! ;))

It is flattering that you visit our forum so much.

The trouble with all this controversy is i is people like you who are the losers. The fan supports the team & the players on the pitch, but cannot affect what happens to the club behind the scene. Alty fans have been very very patient as the club have eroded away their debts, but have been more than handsomely rewarded since.

For the sake of football at this level, no team should be allowed to get away with poor financial management (if we can call it that) as teams like Weymouth, for instance, have found. telford, for instance, are first in line for the next edition of "Where are they now," and Boston, with their own variety of "bad financial management," got away with murder and shouldn't have, but no club should be able to get into a position where this can happen.

It is a shame, as I say, that the fan is an innocent victim.
