Former Socceroo Kewell's side are equal last on the League Two table after two defeats from their opening two games of the season. 

Crawley went down 1-0 away to Cheltenham Town on the weekend, having lost their opener at home 3-1 to Port Vale. 

In between the two league losses, Crawley were knocked out of the League Cup after a 5-1 loss to Birmingham City. 

Fans have been venting their frustration at Kewell and the club on social media, with many believing the club has taken a backwards step in the off-season.

However, Eren has pleaded with the Crawley supporters not to lose their faith. 

"We have not started the season well but it is crucial that we do not lose our positivity and direction. The squad has been through transition last year and will be fine tuned every year, together with Harry we have worked to build a better team than last season," Eren said.

Despite the results, the team has shown positive signs. I ask for unity, noise and passion for our game on Saturday against Cambridge United. It is time for the family to really express what we are about – we need every one of you to make yourselves heard in support of the team on Saturday. 

There has been a lot of talk about our transfer activity over the summer months - we have significantly improved the areas in our team and intend to be ongoing with our activities up until the end of August.

This year we have increased budgets. The club is growing to build its foundation to rise through the leagues.  A defeatist mentality are not characteristics of this club. We have to recall from where we started our journey.

Since the takeover, we have rebuilt the infrastructure and increased the contracted playing staff. The value of the playing staff is considerably increasing each year. This is an indication of the growing value of the team.

We are together and we will be united in our journey. For sure disappointing times will occur, as they do at any club, but we will do our utmost to keep them temporary. We have a vision and belief. We are working towards that – with you, the fans."
