50 years ago today since Don Rogers scored the goal of the season against Stoke. I remember it well. We’d just missed out on goal of the season the previous year when one of Yogi Hughes two goals against Sheffield United was runner up. Don’s goal was great individual skill turning 2 defenders inside out before lobbing it over the keeper. Mind you Yogi’s was even better!

Remember it well. Through ball from Alan Whittle and the Don skipped past them.
Fifty years ago? That hasn't cheered me up!

Two years before my first game, but I know it so well because I had it on a best of the big match video from pretty much as soon as videos came out, it’s now on dvd, great goal, great player, sadly along with Jacko, two legends I just missed seeing live

If in 1973, when Don scored that goal, a fellow Palace fan had been reminiscing about a goal scored 50 years before it would have been in 1923.

I somehow suspect the younger fans on this site would be raising their eyebrows at us remembering this!

And heres the Yogi one mentioned , I thought his first was actually better than the 'hammer' in the second half
