57 years, my first match as a 5 year old was Notts County in the 3rd Div South. Most memorable match has to be the semi against Liverpool when we defied all odds. 52 years for me. Best memory is the Man U 5-0 win.

A few months behind you my first game was against Man United in the Old division one which was probably August. Best memory tough call between Burnley 1979 and the Zenith Data Cup final. COYP Edited by Badger11 (19 Apr 2019 7.33am) Reading 1 Crystal Palace 6, Elm Park, September 1996, was pretty good.
Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes) |

March 1967, lost 0-2 at home to Ipswich. The season after next Palace got promoted to the top flight for the first time in their history, so in many ways that '68/69 season has special memories.

42 years from my first match - August 77 v Soton. 43 years from when I first started following Palace about January '77, looking at the result then next day looking where they are in the league table getting excited if they had moved up.
The pyramid to beat all pyramids!! Find out what team is in which division, eg which division is Coppull United in? |

40 years. I believe I saw something like 17 matches before I saw us win. First memory is from away at QPR with Clive Allen playing for them. Ended with a riot.

First match 1 May 1957 Palace 1 Torquay 1. Torquay needed to win to get promoted from Third Division South but Palace scuppered their dream. 22,000 people, I was standing on the terraces below the grass slopes of the current Arfur side. Fans from both sides were together and I remember a Torquay fan complaining that Palace were playing so well.
The right place at the right time |
