Skipper Conroy signs new Crawley Town deal

Dion Conroy has won promotion out of League Two with Swindon Town and Crawley Town

Crawley Town captain Dion Conroy has signed a new two-year contract.

The 29-year-old defender has played 83 times for the club since joining in the summer of 2022 from Swindon Town.

He became the first player to lead Crawley out at Wembley when he captained them to victory in the League Two play-off final last year and was a regular in the side last season after returning from a pre-season injury in late December.

"I am really pleased to get this over the line and buzzing to get it sorted so early," Conroy told the club website.

"I'm really looking forward to the season, as I think it could be a good one.

"Scott [Lindsay, Crawley manager] is a massive reason why I signed here. What we achieved a couple of years ago was largely down to him, so I am looking forward to another season with him."
