A former wolrd cup winner playing in the Blue square. You think they will pull this off?

What happens if Crawley get promoted?

League 2 rules on wage capping, We had a embargo put on us due to low crowds,less then we had budgeted for.

This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever read! Pires was playing in La Liga just last season!

He could easily be playing Championship football. Teddy Sheringham was scoring in the Premiership at the age of 40 and David Weir (also 40) plays every match for Rangers including Champions League and he played for Scotland against Spain last week.

He would walk into the Liverpool team, and that's not a joke. The world has gone mad

It is Crawley who have gone mad mate. IF there is any truth in it, I really really hope they BLOW this "Project Promotion" and suffer Play Off Heartbreak.

Let them have him. When it all goes 'tits up' they'll have nobody to blame but themselves.

I'd laugh along with the rest of fans if they don't gain promotion.

So would I CC (whilst feeling sorry for Crawley fans who are genuinely decent people). Especially seeing as it is Evans at the helm there. Once a cheat .........

This will all end in tears you can't buy your way into the FL.
