Background and pre-season

The 2019–20 season saw Crawley Town compete in League Two for the fifth consecutive season.[1] Despite the club reaching the Fourth round of the EFL Cup,[2] their best performance in the competition,[3] manager Gabriele Cioffi left the club by mutual consent on 2 December 2019, with the club having won just once in their previous 11 matches with the club 17th in League Two.[4] Cioffi was replaced by former manager John Yems three days later on a deal until the end of the season.[5] Following an upturn in the club's form, with Crawley losing just 2 of their following 11 matches, Yems' contract was extended until the end of the 2022–23 season in late January 2020.[6] However, in March 2020, the League Two season was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with Crawley still having a further 9 games to play.[7] The season was later cancelled, with Crawley finishing 13th after clubs agreed to base the final table on points per game.[1][8]

Following the conclusion of the previous season, defender Jamie Sendles-White, midfielders Jimmy Smith and Josh Payne and forward Ibrahim Meite were all released following the expiration of their contracts,[9][10] whilst David Sesay, Josh Doherty, Ashley Nathaniel-George, George Francomb, Dannie Bulman and Lewis Young all signed new contracts.[11][12][13][14] Ollie Palmer and Panutche Camara were both offered new contracts by the club,[10] but rejected these offers, instead signing for League One clubs AFC Wimbledon and Plymouth Argyle respectively.[15][16] Forward Beryly Lubala also left the club after League One side Blackpool signed the player for an undisclosed fee on 1 September 2020,[17] and Gyliano van Velzen left by mutual consent the following day.[18]

Across the summer 2020 transfer window, the club brought in defenders Archie Davies and Tony Craig from Brighton & Hove Albion and Bristol Rovers,[14] midfielders Samuel Matthews, Tyler Frost and Jake Hessenthaler from Bristol Rovers, Reading and Grimsby Town,[19][14][20] forward Sam Ashford from Hemel Hempstead Town[21] and winger Zaid Al-Hussaini,[22] all following the expiry of their contracts at their previous clubs. Goalkeeper Tom McGill also rejoined the club on a season-long loan from Brighton & Hove Albion, having been on loan at the club for the second half of the previous season.[23]

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the beginning of the League Two season, which was originally due to occur in August 2020, was delayed to 12 September 2020,[24] whilst the first round of the EFL Cup was scheduled to take place on 5 September 2020.[25]

Pre-season

On 14 August 2020, Crawley announced their first pre-season friendly against the Crystal Palace under-23 team, which took place on 15 August 2020.[26] Despite being 1–0 down at half-time, second-half goals from Sam Ashford and Brian Galach helped secure a 2–1 victory.[27] The following week, on 22 August 2020, Crawley drew 2–2 in a friendly against the Tottenham Hotspur under-23 team with Crawley's goals coming from Ricky German and Emmanuel Adebowale in the last eight minutes.[28] Crawley's third friendly match took place three days later, with the club drawing 1–1 against the Watford under-23 team at Hop Oast in Horsham.[29]
