MANAGER’S NOTES:
Good evening and a warm welcome to Tobias Madron, the players, staff and supporters who have made the trip from East London today.
Despite being a newly founded club, Iron FC have been very successful already and they have a well-drilled side as their form shows. Although we have not been at our best for friendlies this season, the players and I see this game as a rivalry and we will go out to win. Although there will not be a full crowd for today’s game, we need all of you behind us if we are to win.
Enjoy the game,
Joseph

RED LEADER:
Good evening and welcome back to the Broadfield Stadium for our game against Iron FC. Our last match here was a good one, I was delighted to get my 12th goal of the season, and despite the disappointing result against Slavik Esperantine, we are looking to put it behind us with a result against our rivals. Nights under the lights always feel that little bit more special.
Please get behind us,
Ragener.

MATCH ACTION: Slavik Esperantine 2-0 Crawley Town
Crawley played and lost to an improving Slavik side where Filip Gacek got a red card. He is suspended for the rest of the season but is available for today’s game.

OPPOSITION MANAGER’S THOUGHTS:
Unlike our last match against Crawley (Iron FC 2-4 Reds), I am hoping for a positive result. I have trained my team to make sure that they put pressure on Crawley’s defence and hopefully score.
(When asked about Joseph Sharp’s comments on a rivalry) If Joseph Sharp is looking for a rivalry then bring it on! I have a well trained team and a very strong club so I hope this match has a bit of fire in it and a win for the mighty Irons!

PREVIOUS MEETINGS:
Crawley have played Iron FC just once, in a 4-2 away win at what used to be known as The Ironing Board. It was the final pre-season friendly for Crawley where Ragener Marron and Shane Deed got 2 each for Crawley and David Bordon got 2 for the irons.

The mighty Mediocre in the small hours pal - it'll probably be close as it usually is between our sides...
