Finishing 13th in League Two, Crewe Alexandra showcased a commendable offensive strategy. Chris Long emerged as the club's top scorer with 8 goals, while Jack Lankester contributed 7 goals, highlighting the team's attacking potential. Despite these efforts, inconsistency in defensive performances and match outcomes prevented a higher league position.
Cup CampaignsIn cup competitions, Crewe's journey was brief. They exited the FA Cup and EFL Cup in the first round, and were eliminated in the Round of 32 of the EFL Trophy. These early departures underscored the need for depth and experience in knockout fixtures.
Notable MatchesA standout moment of the season occurred on September 27, 2025, when Crewe secured a dramatic 2-1 victory over Notts County at the Mornflake Stadium. Josh March's stoppage-time penalty clinched the win, reflecting the team's determination and ability to perform under pressure.
Football MadCommunity and Club InitiativesOff the pitch, Crewe Alexandra engaged in community-focused initiatives. In a unique collaboration, the club received LED grow lights seized by police during a raid on a local cannabis factory. These lights, known for their efficiency in illuminating grass playing surfaces, were repurposed to maintain the pitch at Mornflake Stadium, emphasizing the club's commitment to sustainability and community ties.
The SunLooking AheadAs the 2025–26 season approaches, Crewe Alexandra aims to build upon the foundations laid in the previous year. With a focus on strengthening defensive strategies and enhancing squad depth, the club aspires to challenge for promotion and make a more significant impact in cup competitions. The upcoming season represents an opportunity for growth, ambition, and the pursuit of success both on and off the field.
