i've been a season ticket holder for 4 years, this being my fifth season, and before that i went to every home game possible with my dad.

but last season was the one where i actually knew most things about the team and knew all the transfer rumuors and stuff like that. that season was great, topped off with the Play Off Final and my first away games.

Definately last season, but if we stay up this season, who knows?

Season 89/90 has many happy memories for me.
But the second half of last season showed similar traits from 15 years ago.

* Hardwork
* Teamwork
* Players proud to play for the club
* Fantastic manager

both under Coppell & Dowie

Even though we were relegated, for me personally the 94/95 season really was my first true season, and I went to quite a few games, went to the training ground and met the players, went to a match with Simon Rodger, I just remember that season quite vividly compared to the other stuff goin on in my life then, I woulda been 8 and I just remember that team, that strip, just that season really well...
I even went to Highbury to see Palace beat Arsenal, that was sweet

I also appeared as a child model in the Palace catalogue

Last season was the most enjoyable, the roller-coaster that we (the fans) were put through was amazing, plus the day in Cardiff is one that will ne hard to match. You knew things were gonna go our way when Gillingham missed two penalties against us after Mark Hudson had been sent off, only then for Danny Butterfield to score a superb volley the other end. I think that made me feel something special could be about to happen.

The 1989/90 season purely down to the F.A.Cup was ok but the season 1990/91 was the best , finishing 3rd behind Arsenal and Liverpool and we also won the Zenith cup that year.
so thats my fav

Last season had a brilliant ending with the Cardiff atmosphere absolutely amazing, I agree with the above 89/90 for the FA cup (and Villa Park) but 90/91 gets the vote from me. It was magic watching Geoff going up for the cup, and Andy Gray clouting Keown earlier.
Finishing 3rd in the old div 1 seems to be remembered only by Palace fans, we were brill that season!!

Let's hope that this year will be the same. For me 90/91 comes a close second to 89/90. No-one who was at Villa Park for the semi-final will ever forget it. "It's gone in! Pardew! 4-3 Palace!"

Probably 90-91, came third and had easily the hardest palace team Ive ever seen! Gray, Thomas, Young, Thorn, now they were tough blokes!
To go with that strength we had the silky skills of Wright, Salako and Eddie Mac. What a team.

90-91
we were robbed of european football , plus the fans singing bring on the palace at every away game . Norwich away we were superb . This has got to be the best season for me for so many reasons .
I remember singing every players name befor ethe game during the second half of the season even the s*** ones. The atmopshere was brilliant.

Edited by stushirts (30 Aug 2004 7:24pm)

Yep agreed there it was a fantastic time to travel up and down the country a coming home happy after most away trips!
We were robbed and thats what makes me bitter about Liverpool fcking us over.
Also if Noades had got jis wallet out we were one or two players away from a title team.
We could have become the 4th biggest team in London.
Such a shame but i will have many great memories for years to come.

yes 90-91 was the best.

I loved the cup final day but not the replay of course.

Winning the Zenith data was a nice feeling.

and the night we won the old 2nd division in 79 what a huge attendance..........smart team too.

75-76 cup run, especially Chelsea away, one of the best Palace games ever.

97/98 was quality because it was my first year of being a 'proper' palace fan, e.g going to my first game watching them most weeks.

However last season has to have been my highlight, watching us come back from obscurity, to promotion, a rollercoaster ride and to be capped off with the millenium was a day I will never forget.

Exactly the same as me last year was the best but 97/98 was good too
