TEN MEN REDS BEAT STAFFORD
Crawley managed to secure all three points at Stafford Rangers today, winning 1-0 despite having Marc Pullan sent off midway through the second half. Brighton's on loan striker Danny Marney scored the vital goal after 25 minutes with a gentle lob over the Stafford keeper.

The Reds had Robert Smith stretchered off during the first half, and although the full extent of his injury is not known there are doubts over how much of the remainder of the season he will play.

Crawley were reduced to ten men after 64 minutes when Pullan received his second yellow card of the game. With Joff Vansittart reverting to centre back the team rallied and held on for on the victory.
