Olé Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Not sure if this has been mentioned but it's exactly 99 years and 2 weeks since what was arguably the biggest match in our history, certainly as far as the record books are concerned - an FA Cup Final. And at Crystal Palace. Okay so it's not exactly the same ground. Nor the same opposition. And it wasn't the right result. But its a positive part of our history, so I'd like to think it's an omen that we can start some new history there a century later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has the ground been demolished and built up again since then or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different ground altogether.... Crystal Palace Palace used to play there until Selhurst Park was built in 1924. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
