Crawley’s cup heroes visit school
Crawley’s FA Cup heroes took some time out from training on Thursday (February 4) to visit pupils from Years 5 and 6 at Our Lady Queen of Heaven Catholic Primary School.
The players came to the school after the children wrote to manager John Yems to congratulate his side on their fabulous giant-killing school that day, was able to put their questions to the players including ‘What does a football manager do?’ and ‘What made you decide to become a professional footballer?’

Thank you, ‘Red Devils’, for giving up your time to put huge smiles on everybody’s faces! win over Leeds United in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup.
