I was watching this on my phone with my earbuds in last night and my mrs asked me what I was watching because she said she hasn’t seen me laugh like that for a long time 🤣

'This has made my day. So much to giggle about.
My highlight: 'Divine Inspiration' to prevent Henderson's red card and tip for his penalty save.
Brilliant !!

really liked the montage at the end too, lovely touch to include Side-o and the Rev Nigel Sands, is John Henty in there?

No he’s not. He did cross my mind a couple of times, but in the feverish midst of trying to complete the project the idea fell by the wayside. I kind of regret it now.

There is a person in there that a lot of folk probably don’t recognise, and that’s Dave McClelland (next to Side-O). He was the great Palace correspondent on the Croydon Asvertiser through the 70s/80s and 90s. In those pre internet days, information on Palace was scarce, and I would hang off his every word on a Friday morning.

He was a great writer, never sensationalist, and his love for our club always shone through in his reports and articles. Felt he deserved a place in ‘Palace Heaven’.
