Superb interview on Palace TV of one of the few Palace players who actually justifies the 'Cult Hero' tag.

He clearly relished his time at Palace and regretted leaving.

He is in my team of all time greats. Myriad players come and go, some better footballers than Michael Hughes, but he epitomised Palace spirit attitude and an overwhelming desire to win. A great man.

Agreed. Fascinating interview. A very honest and passionate man. Loved him at Palace.

The fact that he gave Robbie Savage a slap would make him a "ledge" in anyone's book.

I named a cat after him.... feisty little fcuker he was too!

Never ever let Palace down in all his games for us.

Funniest thing ever! Savage took about 30 seconds to fall over and then he got sent off as well. Classic!

Just watched the Cult Hero video of Michael, what a legend. Guy was on the verge of tears describing having to leave Palace.

 


Other girls may try to take me away,
But you know, it's by your side I will stay

Always admired him as a player tenacious and skillfull. With the atmospheric music and slow mo film....brings a lump to the throat thinking about some of the players that came together at a certain time and played their nuts off and cared about our club.

Was always one of my favourite players, but went up even further in my estimation when he stuck one on Robbie Savage. He started walking even before the ref could get his card out.
