Crawley suspend manager John Yems over 'credible' accusations of discriminatory language

John Yems has been suspended from his job as manager of the League Two side.

We take these allegations seriously and have suspended him indefinitely as we investigate and consider further action.

We will never tolerate racism or discrimination of any kind, and we stand behind our players, employees and supporters.

Yems said it was the first time he had heard of the allegations and that he had not been contacted directly by the club.

The 12th place team in League Two will travel to the 13th place team in League Two on Saturday.

Yems returned to the club in December of 2019.
