Crawley Town play at home this evening Tuesday 12th November (7:45pm kick off) against Oxford United in the final group-stage fixture of this season's Leasing.com Trophy. Please keep all discussion about the match to this thread. Thank you and come on you Reds!

The 'odd' part of this competition is perhaps the following way points are awarded in the group stages:
(viii) Three points are awarded for a win and none for a defeat.
(ix) If the scores are level at the end of the group Match then each Club is awarded one point. In addition the Match will be followed immediately by the taking of kicks from the penalty mark in accordance with procedures as approved by the International Football Association Board (IFAB) and the Club that wins the penalty shootout will be awarded an additional one point.

AND the bit that is perhaps the most relevant to Crawley: 5.1.2 Round of 32.
(i) The eight winners and eight runners up of the north and south group stages qualify for the round of 32. All other Clubs are eliminated from the Competition.
Meaning not only are Crawley already out of this competition but Oxford are already into the knock-out stage. Meaningless match? Interesting to see how many turn up and what side both put out.
