'Not an easy decision' - Crawley Town part ways with manager Scott Lindsey

Crawley Town Football Club have confirmed manager Scott Lindsey and assistant manager Neil Smith have left the club.

The Reds are currently 21st in the League Two table, just one point off the relegation zone.

They have only won six games this season – the lowest in the league – and have failed to win any of their last ten games, scoring just four goals in those games.

Club Owner Raphael Khalili said: “This was not an easy decision for the club. Scott has given this club some everlasting memories, which we will all be eternally grateful for. Unfortunately, results have not been at a high enough standard.

"Scott leaves the club with my highest regards, and I truly wish him and his family the very best for the future.

“The work to appoint a new Manager is already underway, and we will make a statement on the matter in due course.”

Lindsey will always be remembered by Reds fans for what he achieved in the 2023/24 season, taking Crawley to Wembley for the first time and getting promoted to ALeague One through the play-offs.
