Crawley secures first win under manager Scott Lindsey

Scott Lindsey returned to Crawley Town as manager and celebrated a victory in his first match back. His team won 1-0 against Bristol Rovers. The win came from a goal by Kamari Doyle, a forward on loan from Albion. Lindsey believes his team can compete near the top of League One rather than just avoiding relegation. He previously led Crawley to promotion through the play-offs and returned after a brief stint with MK Dons. He greeted fans before the game and was pleased with their support. Crawley’s win marked their first in nine matches. They are now closer to Bristol Rovers, who are just above the relegation zone. Lindsey expressed contentment with the performance and said the team needed to build confidence. He emphasized that they have eight important games left to play. Rovers struggled without key players Chris Martin and Ruel Sotiriou. Coach Inigo Calderon praised his players' efforts but acknowledged they did not perform well away from home. He remains optimistic, as Rovers are still above the relegation zone by six points, despite their recent struggles.
