Your first Palace game live?

First game Palace 2 - Liverpool 3 FA cup 2nd leg went in a Liverpool fan came out a Palace fan. Also went to the game in my dads mates Capri.
I didn’t go, but I remember the game at Anfield and was so proud we got a draw up there, if Liverpool failed to win at home back then in any competition it was a massive shock let alone against a 3rd division side
 
Think my first game was against Bristol city sitting on the wall in the Whitehorse.
But the one I remember as first that I can recall is against Nottingham forest (European champions), when we won 1-0.Ian Walsh putting it through Peter Shiltons legs in front of the Whitehorse.
 
Blackburn Rovers (h), April 30, 1988. Sat in the Main Stand, it was a surreal experience for a young lad.

This was my second ever game!! I think it may have been Jim Cannon’s last ever appearance at Selhurst Park. We won 2-0.

My first ever game was a 1-1 draw against Sheffield United in 1986. I sat in the Arthur Wait and my highlight was a hot chocolate!
I finally got a programme for the game in 2012 when my fiancé found one for me on eBay.
