Season summary
The 2019–20 season saw Crawley Town compete in League Two for the fifth consecutive season.[4] Despite the club reaching the fourth round of the EFL Cup,[5] their best performance in the competition,[6] manager Gabriele Cioffi left the club by mutual consent on 2 December 2019, with the club having won just once in their previous 11 matches with the club 17th in League Two.[7] Cioffi was replaced by former manager John Yems three days later on a deal until the end of the season.[8] Following an upturn in the club's form, with Crawley losing just 2 of their following 11 matches, Yems' contract was extended until the end of the 2022–23 season in late January 2020.[9] However, in March 2020, the League Two season was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with Crawley still having a further 9 games to play.[10] The season was later cancelled, with Crawley finishing 13th after clubs agreed to base the final table on points per game.[4][11]
