I recall Shaun Murphy, a centre-half whom we signed from Sheff Utd.I believe he was into his 30s when he came to us.
I do recall the name Anthony Danze and I have a feeling Dowie signed him but this might be hogwash.
I recall goalkeeper Steve Mautone, I don't think he played that many games for us.

That site belongs to a local supporters club, not Crystal Palace FC.

Willo, you would be very welcome to Australia and I can assure you that the weather in the sub tropics of Brisbane is as good as it gets in July with temperatures usually in the high 20's.
The worst time is between November and March when the humidity is often 100%.
Dependent on your tastes there are ample points of interest within easy reach of Brisbane and should your good lady not be interested in attending the match art,theatre, shopping.
If you venture to the game at Townsville, a delightful town, but do not paddle in the creeks or rivers unless you wish to have pedicure starting at your knees.

I believe it was back in 1997 that my dear wife and I visited Queensland in June, traversing to Brisbane, The Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast.

Sad to report that the weather was far from ideal, with several days when rain and winds dominated much to our chagrin.A number of times locals commented to us that the weather was "Unseasonal".Very disappointing indeed - we expected much better that far up north.
