I was wondering if anyone could help me with some research that I am doing? I am trying to find an archive of Palace's results from the Southern League for the 1906-1907 season and beyond. I have the Official History of the Southern League 1894-1994 by Leigh Edwards, which gives me all the results and final tables, however, I need the dates of the matches, which this does not give. Lionel Francis's book of 25 years previous does not either.
Many thanks.

The book mentioned has them and we'll have them on this website in the near future, probably by the end of January I think if you can wait.

That book looks exactly what I need. If anyone has it would they mind telling me the results of any home Southern League games that Palace played between their FA Cup giant-killing of Newcastle on 12th January 1907 and their loss to Spurs on the 9th February 1907?
Many thanks.

You are a legend. This will help a lot. If I ever get a book published I'll give you a mention.
Thanks a million.

This card was done by a Newcastle fan after we beat them in 1907. It was a shock of humungous proportions and the Toon man was obviously shocked and upset about it!
