    Just what I thought. Failed their promotion bid, losing best players, nothing coming in yet will finish top 7.

    Just signed a extremely talented young lad for Liverpool on loan. James Balagizi.

    Crawley going for it.

    They will be up there.

    But you think we will be in the top 7! We have been miles off.

    One “ talented” young lad doesn’t make a viable team.

    He might be talented, but he is only 18 with no games at league level. League 2 is tough and he might not be ready for this level yet.
    Not exactly a marquee signing or going for it, he is on loan ,Liverpool will be picking up most of his wages , which wont be that much.

    Young lads. Hit and miss at this level. Those that do well are the exception. You should know this of course, with your vast footballing knowledge.

    Just signed a new contract today with Liverpool. Was on their bench twice last season. He’s rated.

    Means nothing. Bench? Can't create assists from the bench. Can't score goals from the bench. What you mean is - he wasn't good enough to get into the team. Even in those second XI Cup teams that they chose. He's done nothing. He'll do nothing at Crawley. They'll lose a few games and sack the manager. Nailed on.

    You have absolutely no basis for that assumption right now. Look at their ins and outs!!! And players that havent accepted new deals. You are getting absolutely slaughtered tonight fella.

    He was released by Swindon, so Crawley have not taken him. He was a free agent

    Wonder why they released him if their captain. 37 games last term. A strange one. Anyway Swindon got a huge rebuild to do. Saw they lost 2 to Charlton as well.

    Below is a Swindon fan opinion on him, they got a new director of football a few months ago followed by their manager leaving so I’m guessing not offering the club captain is the new guys way of making a mark and putting his stamp on things. If I’m honest if we end 6th this season and lost on penalties to the playoff winners I wouldn’t want my 26 year old captain leaving along with my manager and other players, something stinks there atm it wouldn’t surprise me if Garner left after an interview with this director of football ala Parkinson with Rahic. The window is still early I guess but they were only 1 or 2 decent players next season from automatics if they’d kept what they have and built on it as we should have done when we lost at Wembley!

    Conroy was king of the statistics for Swindon last year in terms of defensive work and often passing, with our very own Crichlow coming second a lot of the time.

    I decided that must be because Conroy was positioned in the centre of a back three, therefore getting most of the action. That, or he's just better than Crichlow.

    Apparently released due to serious injuries in multiple seasons?

    Think he's a quality defender and a very good signing for Creepy.
