Losing 3-1 to Blackburn away, then beating them 3-0 at home to win promotion to the old first division, and seeing myself run on the pitch at full time on the big match with Bian Moor.

"It's not the bullet that's got my name on it that concerns me; it's all them other ones flyin' around marked 'To Whom It May Concern.'"

strangely, mine is from our game against Walsall in the 2003-04 season.
Palace were stormig up the league and were within touching distance of the Play-offs.
We needed a win against Walsall to keep destiny on our hands. Anything less would mean it would be mathematically impossible to make the top six.

Must have been around 85 minutes gone, and the score was 0-0.
Then in the last few minutes the ref awards Palace a penalty. This is it, the decider.

AJ steps up and hits the ball, but the Walsall keeper parries.
AJ is quickest to the rebound and slots home.

1-0 FT

From that point i thought destiny was on our side.

I disengage, I turn the page.

Alan Lee's goal at Hillsborough. Just remember it so clearly and feeling that nothing could go wrong.

71 - King George's Field, Corinthian Casuals
70 - Parc Emlyn, Newcastle Emlyn
69 - The Crabble Ground, Dover Athletic
68 - Parsonage Field, Farleigh Rovers
67 - Eden Park Avenue, Beckenham Town

That felt good, it was right below me as I was in the upper holmesdale

A slightly dodgy pen if I remember correctly

A little dive by a sub who'd just who come on I seem to remember...anyone remember? Tommy Black maybe?

Does anyone else feel that Dougie's 2 great goals at home against Wolves in the play-off semi sometimes get forgotten because of his heroics at Stockport?

He came on as a sub and scored to take us to 2-0, Jamie Smith got one back almost straight away, then another from Dougs all in the last 5 mins or something. (Brilliant goals as well). Hopkin's goal in the final may never have happened without the Dougs big help to get us there. Just a thought
