One of my all time favourite Palace players. He didn't take any prisoners. I seem to remember Venables introducing players from the youth team 2 at a time. I think Billy came in with Peter Nicholas and remember watching them playing at White Hart lane back in 1977 in a 2-2 draw. He certainly had a short fuse. I remember one evening game when an opposing player did something that infuriated Billy and he stamped his foot right next to the blokes head.

i was there he was covering for Ian Evans, he did look a little out of his depth that night, Blackpool scored 3 headers if i remember right, i left at half time and went to the CIU club nearby and got pissed. then had little run in with blackpool fans back at the station. 40years feels like yesterday happy days

Super memories of him, when i began watching Palace in 1979, when we won the old 2nd Division title.

I’m proud to have the very shirt he wore for the final game v Burnley!

West Wickham Eagle (emigrated)

Can’t remember sash kit with collar in cotton made by Umbro.

We did wear that kit, but not the season Sweden stated!!

Maybe it's his shirt when they won the youth cup??

A rare thing indeed. Man U in the nineties had 5 and Barca 2008 had six from youth in their best starting eleven. We sh1t em. We had nine on that night in '79. Doris, Kenny, Billy, Vince, Jerry, Peter N, Steve K, Jim and Dave S. The only two not were Budgie and ? Walshy was a sub. Another. Makes 10. Incredible.

edit: Walshy did start. Blimey. All 10 outfield players from the seventies youth set up. That must be a record and one we can be proud of for a change.
