I remember John Jackson - kept us in the First Division single-handed for 4 years in the early 70s. Happy that Speroni has equalled his appearances for all his excellent work during our darker days, but he should not get another game just to beat JJ's record. Unfortunately he showed at Southampton at the end of last season and at Fulham pre-season that he is our number 3 choice now. Which is quite a feat, either on your own or just using one hand

There is but one king, and his name is Jules. Absolutely one of the most important players we've had in a generation, possibly more - and arguably the most important keeper we've had. True, Martyn was better, but Speroni's performance during the dark Jordan years were on a par with a 20 goal a season striker, for three or four seasons in a row. Without him, we'd be talking about how important it is to have a consistent season in the Championship, now were back where we belong. As far as I'm concerned he can stay 'on the books' until his sons are old enough to don the gloves. Here here.

Also, we are duty bound to give him that appearance. Even if its five minutes. Pards doesn't like him unfortunately. Same as he didn't like Jedi. My source? Enough people in the know within the club.

It's not unheard of for clubs to need to use their number 3. Look at Sunderland stuck with Pickford or Newcastle with Harper 2 years ago. It happens and I can't think of a better number 3. A quiet man and a very good role model for a professional footballer. His wealth of knowledge of the club means he is almost like a coach. He still has a role to play at palace I feel. I honestly think he is the most important player we have had in the last 20 years.

Great keeper to have as a back up if we have injuries to the first two. Hopefully he is helping the youngsters with their coaching too.

He's been quoted several times that he wants to be back in goal, so maybe hoping for that, and the other reasons above.
