Dan Jones – a Crawley fan currently at university in Leeds – is a sound lad. With County in the same division as Crawley over the last three seasons, Dan’s written loads of great stuff for The Scarf My Father Wore. His 2024-25 season review landed in my inbox yesterday with this extra paragraph: “Thank you for giving me the space to write about my club over the last couple of years. I'll be rooting for you in the play-offs and fingers crossed that one day we'll get our shit together for long enough for our paths to cross again.” It might be a while before our paths do cross once again, but Dan’s leaving us (for now) with another decent piece on the last ten months, covering everything from unknown Nigerian centre-backs to struggling to get a beer in Barnsley.
