They only played for us in 2010, because we were short of players after administration. As a club now, we are light years ahead of where we were back then. We now have an academy through the age groups which is admired, cherry-picking the best talent from south london. Cadogan and Pinney would not get a look in now.

Shows how much I know. I thought they were a 'turn' from the 'Old Time Music Hall'.

Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes)

Corinthian's Asst Mgr is former Palace youth player - Dan Pringle.
Played in same team as Wilf and Jonny Williams.
Also runs Wilf's soccer academy.

That's my level of football as a coach, and for those who aren't familiar, I can confirm that this is where the vast bulk of players who didn't quite make it at Palace (etc) seem to end up.

Is this because of the lack of vacancies in the professional pyramid? Hmm, maybe, but perhaps it's because the top level is so very, very rarified that the whole youth team model anticipates (correctly) that almost all of its participants will never, ever make it.

He did. He scored against QPR.

Well Cadogan never made it off the bench and Pinney was a late sub...the question of who ate all the pies has been answered.

Here's a fun fact from Willopedia: Wilf's first senior goal was assisted by Kieron Cadogan.

You fed me, you bred me, I'll remember your name.
