Crawley have banned 3 fans for questioning the boards motives on their forum!
That's the thin edge of the wedge there, reports of money laundering been going on there for sometime |

Didn't Crawley have mysterious owners during their rise to the Football League? Or was that a lazy assumption created by non-Crawley supporting football fans?

When talking on the Adver Forums a few years back I regularly mentioned that the Crawley Factory would soon come crumbling down. I know their gates are slightly higher now, but back in league two they were around 1500-800. It was never enough in my eyes for them to stay afloat in L2 let alone L1. Unless someone was constantly ploughing in funds, yet none of this seemed forthcoming. It's interesting now that it comes to the fore.
As always, it's their fans that will suffer when a newly formed Crawley FC has to rise from the ashes in the Vanarama Premier South (or whatever). Always been dodgy, but who am I to judge....

Based on today's adver headlines I don't think we will be seeing them invited back to the CG under Powers reign. They seem to be almost goading him

This was a strange quote.. f any demonstration was needed to his carefree attitude, the chairman’s WhatsApp profile is pretty startling. Power’s avatar is a picture of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un, with the strapline ‘your imperial leader has spoken’ |

There is apparently nothing as bitter as a spurned Bassam.

ooh. as someone who is fully against the advers (et al) exclusion even I think that was just an unhelpful, petty and needles dig.
though we shouldn't be fucking around over the rules/smaller clubs, obviously, so there is a point there.
------
nice to see power take a humourous note of the internet/fan reaction with his kim Jong/Instagram thing.

This Bassam fella just keeps coming across as an illiterate moron. (Article here) He's a fucking writer. THERE was at least once conclusion to an ongoing striker saga this week - the long-running investigation into Town’s signing of Jermaine Hylton With Hylton, however, Power has made a rod for his own back. The process of signing a player from a semi-professional football is pretty straightforward, even moreso if he does not have a contract. It's not the first time either, there was an article recently that had at least half a dozen mistakes. |

Agreed, it doesn't help the Adver's case to be taken seriously when they employ such a poor journalist. |

Beyond poor journalism (ability to find and construct a story) - he can't actually write, and there's no subbing of online content either.

He's a fucking writer.
Think that's open to debate on current evidence |
