One song is glad all over, not this. Any older fans ever actually heard this played at Selhurst ? Don't know why the club are trying to replace our song but it's stuff like this and trying to claim another clubs history that really makes us look tinpot.

I have never really been a fan of glad all over if I am honest.

Once upon a time they used to play Herb Alpert and his band playing Casino Royale from the 1960’s Bond movie!

Power To The Palace, Glad All Over and, for a short but brilliant time, Zombie Nation. Those are the only three CPFC related songs that resonate with me and which I can remember being played at games. My first game was in 1983.
That said, I have been personally moved by the semi final tifo and the whole "take my hand" vibe. If we do write history in a couple of weeks I'd love to hear the UB40 version belted out at home games next season.

I remember fans regularly singing a version of it when I was a kid back in the 70’s, but other than that, no

News to me that it was a Palace song, and I've been a fan since the late sixties. To be fair, it is a lovely song though and its not as if the club is trying to push a completely unknown tune. I'm fine with it.

Why not the superior Elvis version?

As long as it's not Bob Dylan's version which wouldn't whip up much excitement.

No reason at all - I just like the UB40 version more!

The Stylistics have entered the conversation.

The more good songs the better so long as no other premier league clubs regularly sing it. Not sure it is to replace GAO though. What gave you that impression?

No chance of reviving this on occasion I suppose?

Was played before Bournemouth, the banner at Wembley, now the club have announced it'll be played before forest.
Seems a bit forced.
That’s what I thought. But being palace I think the fans will be able to adopt it without too much indoctrination. Especially as the HF seem to be onboard.
