Terribly sad news. I greatly enjoyed his articles. Jamesey never pulled his punches & was usually spot on when it came to articulating the moods of genuine ie pre-Premier League, fans. He

Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!! |

Definitely a loss to the Palace family. With some strange Palace opinions around, I found his columns always hit the mark. He had wisdom and good writing skills. The book means his memory will live on.

Ordered mine the other day from Amazon…out for delivery as we speak! Looking forward to invoking some of the old memories as I read through it. Edited by Phil’s Barber (11 Aug 2023 1.49pm)

Mine's just arrived - it's huge and matches so well in style with We All Follow the Palace. Just had time for a brief dip into it, and what a trip down memory lane this is going to be, with Jamesey's writing style being so easy going yet to the point. Well done Gordon!

I'll get it somehow. I tend to have to have most Palace related books. Jamesey's reports were some of the first things that I followed here. I liked the way he was proper old school. Part of the soul of the club we'll hopefully always have in some form.

Loved Jamesey,s write ups, especially when I was working overseas, his words painted more than a picture in my imagination, often I could ee the phase of play he was describing come alive in my mind. Just thinking aloud - Isn't Jameseys book something that we should be retailing in the club shop ? Wouldnt have thought it something that was too hard to put into practice.

You should be able to buy on Amazon.co.uk and have shipped to Ireland.
