Coming soon on Ch. 4 this six-parter goes behind the scenes at Crystal Palace's youth set up and follows the footballers, aged 8-18 as they try to follow in Wilf's footsteps and become Premier league players. Sounds interesting!

How come we're suddenly in the limelight?
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

How come we're suddenly in the limelight? I think it's a good decision. Palace has a reputational link to strong academy football from the seventies, which had fallen somewhat before Parish and co. It's been a major investment area now and we are beginning to see the results. A mainstream channel highlighting our academy's progression is a great coup for us as talented youngsters and their family get to see the professionalism and success and we might go up in their pecking order.....I can only see positives.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold... |
