'Stability is a big thing and it’s not what the club has had so far' - Striker Tom Nichols on the 'uncertainty' at Crawley Town

The 29-year-old striker will officially join the Gills on January 1 after a month of him not being able to play for the Reds and a lot of speculation. Nichols is leaving one club with new American owners to join another, with the Gills being taken over by Florida-based businessman Brad Galinson in the last week, and he will be hoping for better luck at the Priestfield Stadium.

It has not been the season Crawley Town fans, players and owners would have wanted. They are currently 20th in League Two having only won five of their first 22 games of the season. With Ashley Nadesan and Joel Lynch out injured and Nichols leaving, the Reds need a brilliant transfer window to help try and turn things round.
