Simon Walton pens two-year deal with League Two side

Simon Walton has joined Crawley Town.

The midfielder was one of 13 players to leave Stevenage at the end of May following the League Two play-off defeat to Southend United.

The former Leeds United and Charlton Athletic midfielder joined Boro last summer and made 33 appearances, scoring five times.

He has signed a two-year deal with their League Two rivals, who Boro play on Boxing Day and in February next season.
