Kewell hits back at critics

Crawley Town’s Head Coach, Harry Kewell has hit back at critics during a Fan’s Forum meeting on Tuesday.

Responding to questions about his team selection and the poor start to the season he says he will make it happen, because he is ‘more hungry’ for it than anyone.

It’s a view echoed by the Red’s Midfielder, Mark Randall, who insists the team’s fortunes will turn, as long as they keep their heads up, although he has admitted there has been frustration over the results.

They play their 5th game of the season this Saturday away to Swindon Town.

Murderer who attacked Police with hammer wins appeal to reduce his sentence

The Police Federation in Sussex along with the county’s Police and Crime Commissioner, Katy Bourne, have criticised judges after a murderer who attacked officers with a hammer in Crawley has had his sentence reduced.

Jamshid Piruz

Jamshid Piruz was given a life with a minimum of 5 years, which has now been dropped to 3 after he won an appeal against his jail term.

Piruz who admitted to burglary, violence and two counts of GBH during his trial last year has previously served 6 years in prison in the Netherlands for locking a woman in a room and slitting her throat.

Matt Webb, Chairman of the area’s Police Federation says they’ll be seeking advice on what can be done in this situation.
