Crawley Town's long-serving club captain Jimmy Smith has signed a one year contract extension, including the option of a further year, keeping him at the club until at least the end of next season.

Smith has been an integral part of the club since he arrived from Stevenage in 2014, and scored his first career hat trick in a 3-2 win over Colchester United last February. Last season he surpassed his best ever goal scoring tally, reaching ten goals and has now made 170 appearances for the side.

The skipper has been part of Gabriele Cioffi’s coaching team at the Broadfield Stadium, having suffered a serious injury in our match at Oldham in September, and will continue to bring his experience to the role before his return to action, which is anticipated to be before the end of the 2018/19 campaign.
