    The bookies make Crawley Town red hot favourites for the title in League Two.

    Swindon, The Gas, Oxford and Shrewsbury are also fancied, but only for other places in the top four or five - but nowhere near Crawley.

    So just how good do you think Crawley will be? and will they be able to cope with being everyone's team to beat?

    They have ankinde.....that should kill the odds a bit!!!

    I think they will be top 6, where though I couldnt say atm. L2 in not like the BSP. If they come up with the mentality of thinking they will march through then they are in for shock.

    They will finish top 3 IMO. They pretty much walked the conference last season and have bags of cash to spend to improve for this season

    Will Tubbs still be playing for them? He resisted moves to league clubs before now. Some of these players prefer to keep playing in the Conference. He seemed like a key player for Crawley last year - we should have picked him up when he was with Salisbury!

    Quite a few of Crawley's players never really made the grade in the league. The Argentinian lad was at Wycombe for a while. I think Bath have picked up a winger (Cooke?) from Crawley - another player who didn't want league football but was quite sought after.

    How are they funding wages and keeping within the 60% cap?
