Crawley club statement

The former Chelsea, Swansea and Rochdale manager's last game in charge was Saturday's 3-2 defeat by Lewes in the FA Cup fourth qualifying round.

The Red Devils began the season on minus 10 points after entering administration, but are now second from bottom with 12 points from 17 games.

The statement added: "Crawley Town FC has had a difficult year both financially and on the pitch, and the decision to find a new management team has not been taken lightly.

"The directors are determined to strive forward after some disappointing results on the pitch and having the constant pressure of administration.

"They would like to thank the fans for their support through these tough times, and would like to assure them everything is being done to push the club to new heights."
