Then we had the PT management years Dougie too, great player dog$hit defensive guff football, thought he was an Italian defensive Don, buggered off to Bolton- that ended well. Oddly Dean Austin, $hit player but gained a lot of respect towards the end of his Palace career with some committed performances, allways felt he would make a good manager, although haven't heard of him in any management positions, must have hung his playing boots up a few years ago. Anyone know what Deano's upto now ? Willo?

Maybe this should have been posted in the nostalgia section but hey ho . Happy days indeed . Remember the game well and that era when Taylor was terrorising full backs . Also remember the journey back to Leeds Station on the bus , not a window left on the one I was on, I think they had the hump

Although I wasn't even born I know the Taylor story. Such was his quality it was an extremely brilliant story. It also has that 'typical palace' slant after we beat Leeds and Chelsea only to go out of the cup (was it Southampton) in a poor display.

All the displays were incredible at teams who were just not getting beat at home

That is so true..Taylor, more than any Palace player Ive see since the early 60's, influenced games single handedly..I love Wilf and Yannick but Taylors crossing and passing was far superior.Shame his management skills were not of the same level as his playing skills!
