Do we know how strong the Crawley side was? I spoke to a Crawley supporter in the first half and he said they had a few players who had started in the first 11 only at the weekend and before that. It was a mix I would say with the first manager in charge . We were a different class tonight though. £1 per goal !!

Well if we’ve scrapped the slow possesion based game for the up and at em game then they better start planning for a higher capacity ground because crowds will be flooding in if this form continues. Yes that would be nice and then we need to start thinking about. But bearing in mind the last 2 home games, Bath and Crawley, were exceptions to the rule in my eyes. Both teams came and wanted to play football. The majority of teams coming to Woodside are happy to have 10 men or more behind the ball. Yes we played really well but would it have been the same if Crawley sat back? The answer will be in the next few games. I hope I am wrong with my view 😉

Do we know how strong the Crawley side was? According to their forum that was a strong side in the circumstances... CTFC Fans Forum - SSCC Thread...they're not best pleased 😬 Very interesting reading that. Especially the disrespect some of the fans gave us. But in the end we were deserved winners! I said if before but we looked the professional team and they looked more non league in the end!

Easy to get carried away with last night's game. Looked vulnerable at the start and could have been three down before our "worldie" levelled the score. Their's hit the cross bar which would have made it 3-3. Then came the sending off which ended the game as a contest. Really surprised with the level of ill discipline and immaturity from Crawley that you wouldn't see from a NLS team.

Looking at the other games there were no great shocks, everything going pretty much to form. The only fixture yet to be played is Bognor v Horsham YMCA so hopefully we won't see the ridiculous fixture congestion from last season repeated... Results so far - Sussex FA Site

I would like to add last night was Juan Luque's best game for us so far, he was direct, aggressive running at their full backs and CB's and with 2 assists and a goal he really contributed!! What we want to see from him and it was always going to take time to get up and running!
Also interesting to see we signed another striker, young Adeyemi and doing some research it appears he joins us from Walton and Hersham! Now of the Southern Premier and with the run of fixtures coming up we are going to need that squad! Showed some promise in the 15 mins he was on the park.

Not really a surprise to see an improvement in his performance when he is played in his preferred position, off the left wing as opposed to the right! Just wait till he is match fit!

The most dignified response to all that sort of stuff (someone today blaming the 4G pitch and saying the town smells of seaweed 🤣) is to just laugh it off.
Most of them are perfectly nice and we're far too secure in ourselves and where we're going to care what their 'village idiots' might think... especially the bitter ones who can't take defeat.
