2024-08-31
It's time for another Watch Party as Crawley Town gears up to face Barnsley FC at the Broadfield Stadium. With Crawley sitting in 8th place and Barnsley just behind in 9th, this match promises to be a close and competitive encounter. Barnsley FC, nicknamed "the Colliers," founded in 1887 by Reverend Tiverton Preedy. Originally donning blue, the club switched to red and white colors in 1904. Over the years, Barnsley has experienced many highs and lows, including winning the FA Cup in 1912 and playing in the Premier League during the 1997–98 season. Although they have since faced several relegations, the Colliers have a rich legacy in the second tier of English football, where they have spent more seasons than any other team. As the match kicks off, we'll be watching closely to see how Crawley handles Barnsley’s experienced squad. A victory could solidify Crawley’s position in the top half of the table and provide a crucial boost as the season progresses. The energy from the home crowd at Broadfield Stadium, combined with the passion of Crawley’s supporters joining the Watch Party, will be vital in pushing the team towards success. So, grab your snacks, settle in, and let’s cheer Crawley Town on to what we hope will be a memorable win against Barnsley FC! Thank you for attending and COYR!
CRAWLEY TOWN vs. SWINDON TOWN, Carabao Cup, Discord Watch Party, 240813
2024-08-13
It's time for another Crawley Town watch party, and this time we're up against a familiar face in Will Wright as we take on Swindon Town in the Carabao Cup. Our opponents, Swindon Town, are well-known to us from our battles in League Two, but this match promises a different kind of challenge. Swindon Town, or the "Robins" as they’re affectionately known, have a long and storied history in English football. Founded back in 1879, the club has had its ups and downs, from winning the League Cup in 1969 against Arsenal to enduring spells in both the top and lower tiers of the football league system. Despite their recent history in the lower leagues, Swindon Town has proven time and again that they can rise to the occasion. They’ve had their moments of glory, including a brief spell in the Premier League during the 1993-94 season under the management of Glenn Hoddle. Although they were relegated that season, it was a significant achievement for the club. As for the Carabao Cup, it's a competition that has seen its fair share of memorable moments and dramatic upsets. While it might not carry the same prestige as the FA Cup or the Premier League title, it still offers clubs like ours a chance to make headlines and compete for silverware. The competition is known for its unpredictability, with lower-league teams often taking the opportclubs, especially when those clubs field weakened sides. Thank you for attending and COYR!
CRAWLEY TOWN vs. BLACKPOOL, Discord Watch Party, 240810
2024-08-10
Get ready, Crawley Town fans! It's time for another watch party as we embark on our journey in League One following that unforgettable play-off victory against Crewe Alexandra. Our first opponent is Blackpool FC, a team with a long history in English football. Blackpool Football Club, based in the seaside town of Blackpool, Lancashire, has been around since 1887. The club has played at Bloomfield Road since 1901 and has seen its fair share of ups and downs over the years. Known for their tangerine shirts since 1923, Blackpool has experienced everything from top-flight success to challenging times in the lower leagues. One of the club's most famous moments came in 1953 when they won the FA Cup in what’s often called the "Matthews Final," coming back from 3-1 down to win 4-3 against Bolton Wanderers. The 1950s also saw them consistently finishing near the top of the First Division, with Stanley Matthews winning the inaugural Ballon d'Or in 1956. However, Blackpool's history hasn't been without its struggles. The club faced several relegations and financial issues, particularly during the controversial Oyston family ownership. Despite these challenges, Blackpool made a remarkable return to the Premier League in 2010 and have continued to fight their way back up the leagues. As Crawley Town faces Blackpool in our first League One match, it is our time to shine. Thank you for attending and COYR!
