shlt loads for me. Just recent games have added more pain. 1990 semi-final and final : was in Coventry doing exams at the time for a degree course that i failed. THE Sheffield Wednesday match. Was working in Forest Hill and had to visit my dad afterwards Br1-3hton match.- bl00dy couldn't get a ticket. Manyoo 1- 2 Palace (carling cup) bl00dy bllox as i had no time or money.

For me it was the game at Old Trafford last week. The usual people I would have travelled up with were making it a 48 special and it was at least £200 on just travel, hotel and tickets without everything else. I reckoned that I would be lucky to get away with spending much less than £400 and with Christmas coming up and a feeling we were going to get tonked, I gave it a skip and settled for watching it in the pub. Will regret it to my dying day. Any other time of the year and I reckon I would have gone and in almost every year in the past I would have done so anyway but business is slow. Damm growing old and sensible.

Play off at the Millenium - The missus was preggers and we booked a long weekend when we were still languishing in the bottom six... little did I know Dowie would get us in the fekking play off final and it was more than my life was worth to suggest not taking the now heavily preggers missus donw the coast. Although bless her she didnt mind sitting in a s***ty pub in Hastings watching...

The little sod didn't appear for another 5 weeks (although now redeeming himself as a Palace ST holder!). I travelled down to the A34/M4 services to meet my folks & friends as they made their way to Cardiff. So gutted. Other than that, I've always regretted not going to the Semi-Final in '76. We forget it now but at the time it was the highest profile game in our history.

I really wished I'd gone to the Stockport game, no decent reason why I didn't and regret it nowdays. Bloody nervous watching it on the box
The ups and downs of Palace have left me older than my years |
