Plunge into the potted history of a little-known football rivalry between Crawley Town and Wimbledon, in all their guises, as Steve Leake, a life-long Red Devils fan, peels back the decades to reveal the similarities and differences of both clubs that have stirred up a melting pot of emotions both on and off the pitch. Ivan Noel, Crawley town fan, provider of book titles, and all-round good egg
When it comes to Crawley Town and Rivalries, AFC Wimbledon is the team that always springs to mind. A rivalry that started in our 2010/11 Conference winning season, when we pipped them to the title by some distance. Since then, we've had many a good ding-dong and the fact we have won on both our League visits so far to the Cherry Red Records Stadium, goes a long way to show how serious we take this fixture. Then, of course, there is the club that gave them the reason to be born, Mk Dons nee Wimbledon FC. This book, published at the start of his 70th year supporting Crawley Town, compares the history of the three clubs and also looks at the 2023/2024 and 2024/2025 seasons and compares them to other standout seasons in the history of Crawley Town. Steve Herbert, Crawley Town fan (with an affinity for West Ham Utd) and supplier of very useful travel information.
