For a long, long time and a good many years it was the £7500 paid to Fleetwood Town for Cainy. Now, I think, it was an "undisclosed" for Carl Baker ? I could be wrong though.
I can only see this Crawley thing going belly up for them. Again. It was only a couple of years ago they had those brothers at the helm (the Majeeds was it or something like??) who threw loads of money in and promises of this, that and the other and that went sour for the club.
The below from Wikipedia ........
It was revealed by The Argus several days later that the Chairman Chas Majeed was an undischarged bankrupt and therefore banned from holding a high position within the club.[10]. Majeed later resigned from his post but remained on in some capacity.
The Reds fans started a "Red Card" campaign in order to remove Chas Majeed and his owner brother Azwar Majeed from the club. It was revealed that the club owed around £1.1million with nearly £400,000 owed to HM Revenue and Customs, and the Majeeds claimed they were owed £700,000 by the club.
By July of that year it was revealed that the debts were closer to £1.4 million, including money owed to current and former staff, and an offer of 25 pence in the pound was rejected by the creditors.Obviously, I hope it doesn't go t*ts up. We actually had a link up with Crawley fans back in the mid 90's that John Taylor, Kipps and others were instrumental in setting up.
