For me, a bit of a realisation that I wish I could have bottled the feeling I had when I turned up each week expecting to win and be entertained with Bolasie on one side, Zaha on the other and Murray in the middle scoring for fun. It just felt different.
.
That period around Dougie leaving and Ollie taking over was a bit special, we were taking everyone apart. I suppose that’s why we sit through the dross, in hope that one day it’s as exciting as that again.
Holloway is a hard bloke to dislike, but he did do his best to fcuk it up, but it must have been hard for him, as he said in the documentary, in the end he had a go at Parish for keep mentioning Dougie’s name and how he used to do things

So .. A few days back my Mrs and me watched the trailer.. She isnt a massive football fan but when that amazing occasion with the fans outside Selhurst and later at Lloyds bank came on we were transfixed.. It had gone very quiet as we watched and when it was finished she looked round with serious tears in her eyes at me and I was Blubbing... A sixty year old bloke blubbing like some kid watching Bambi... You know something ? I am not ashamed to admit that because this is an amazing club to support and love... From Shrewsbury to Mansfield away,, From Cambridge united with our punk firm to Orient.. The days were always special and normally a bit pissed up. Nicked at Cardiff away and getting a massive £200 fine and bound over for two years.. Then we got to Wembley in the ZDS cup .. Ok not the champions league final but it was our day and mate did we turn Wembley Red and blue... Club facing liquidation.. I was absolutely crapping myself that day and was doing a delivery in Poole.. I had the radio on all day... asking people to keep in touch ...... They did bless them ... Then the good news came through .. THIS AMAZING FOOTBALL CLUB HAD BEEN SAVED BY 4 ABSOLUTELY AMAZING BLOKES AND PALACE BLOKES... I bibbed my horn Cried waved my Palace scarf out the window then (stuck in a jam) jumped out of the van and had a little run around in the road shouting Eeeaagles and waving my scarf around my head... So OK we are not some billy big Bollox club with a Russian arms dealer in charge but we are a club built on honour, honesty and love.... There is something about Crystal Palace fc that makes us SPECIAL and Unique and this Amazon series brings it to front... When Eagles Dare just gives back to us all those special moments and its got to be up for a Bafta.. My honest special moment is Delaney and Ramage at Wembley and I watched it on the screen at the time.. Absolute friendship at its highest and this beautiful club gave Damien hope and support when he thought he was finished ... Watching hjs tears and his mate looking after him was just special... We should have given Ramage a couple of games in the Prem just so he could have said he had got there even off the bench.... Jedinak and KG were giants and perfect together.. Still miss Yannick and his snake like skills.. Murray will always have my respect and we should never have lost him.. Alan lee .. Thank you so much... Darren Ambrose thanks for youre amazing contribution and staggeringly awesome goals... Julian Speroni .... An all time club Legend and a Palace hero forever... But mostly and over all .. Parish,Browett,Long and Hoskings get Firstly .. My thanks.. My respect and admiration for keeping this part of me in existence.. This is a special club with a massive massive heart and an integral part of the south London/Croydon community ... Finally .. Thanks Wilfried for all those special brilliant moments you gave us... If you do leave us I really hope its for some massive club like PSG, Brian Munich or Real Madrid or Barca where you will shine ..

Fantastic post - true love and all the rest shines through. Moments remembered like these make up for the dreary and awful times that this club has endured.

This was my version of offering an olive branch to you Midlands. Feel like we are always at each other. Probably more my fault.

Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents? Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

Yeah, brought back memories... top song that 1. Doc Brown did some great standup as well. He's a talented guy. Here's another classic Palace song he wrote:
Stop moaning (Try Being Palace) - lyrics are funny but true:
