Have we got any intentions of having another Eagle flying at Selhurst? I think it makes us unique and it'd quirky having our own Eagle and since Kayla sadly left us I think we should have a new Eagle..

I asked about this on here months ago and received little or no reaction as I recall. Although I no longer go to Selhurst I'd love to think there was a Kayla Mk2 flying from end to end before kick off. The Eagle is our trademark and the TV companies, as well as the fans, loved it.
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

It made us unique and it would be marvellous if a new Kayla could be trained as a replacement. Assuming a suitable 'eaglet' can be found I would be happy to chip in a modest sum from my pension to help with training.

It would be nice to get back. The kids were fascinated by it. I thought Parish would be on it - but it's been a while. I hope we still help the bird sanctuary.

Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course). |

He apparently has taken the club to his heart and loves everything about us. He may not be aware of Kayla, given the US connection with Eagles might be worth a punt. I believe he is on social media

It definitely added to the pre match build up I’d definitely chip in a couple of hundred to make it happen again RIP Kayla

A fiver a year on a ST price would be roughly 100k. I'm sure most wouldn't object. Maybe a free visit to Eagle heights thrown in. People in the gate will then spend as well. Win win.
