Really enjoyed watching that game. And so funny to hear Horton say how Brighton would win the league if they win their last match. Ha! :D

it was very nostalgic to see the terrace shots and mrs Minchella the peanut lady also Hy Money setting up for her photography of the game

It's on You Tube and in this forum somewhere (possibly earlier in this thread).

Mentioned this on another thread but it seems to have gone unnoticed.

If you want to see some really rare CPFC footage you should check out ITN Source. Where else will you see Palace get relegated at Norwich in 1972/73 or the fans at King's Cross after the Sunderland FA Cup quarter final in 1976? I'm not permitted to send links because of the 15 posts rule.

Next time I'll shout.

Enjoyed that - did you see the smoke bomb at the Brighton match v Blackburn - cheats!

could you pm me links please? (or post 11 quick posts in chit chat gold?)

Hallelujah. First set in your inbox, Dorking. More to follow.

Come on Dorking, what about a friendly repost for the benefit of the Palace population?

Some mental stuff there. The one of Arthur Wait is fab

ops - most of the links don't seem to work when posted on the thread, so I've forwarded a selection via pm

Palace training in the gym in 1963 - Terry Long very recognisable!!

Wait till you see the 1976 King's Cross footage. The 1962 Arthur Rowe interview would be great if the preview had audio.

That's just brilliant!

Cheers DE. Tried to rep you but the Rep Police would have it otherwise.

First time I've ever seen or heard the chairman speak, came across really well.

Arthur Waite truly a great chairman.Not that there is anything wrong with our current one. So nothing changes in 50 years "Byrne wanted to go" Wonder if they will have a similar interview with SP in a month or so.

What's really mental about that is that Arthur Wait is being interviewed in front of what became the Arthur Wait Stand - it's really great to have a momento like to bring the personality of the man to life.

Surely, if ever there should be a statue of a Palace man at Selhurst Park - Arthur should be at the top of the list?

It was interesting to listen to the tone of the interviewer (Kenneth Wolstenholme?) - asking Arthur 'Can you see any future for Palace this season?'.

At the ime of the interview (5th December 1962) Palace were just about bottom of Division Three - having won just three out of the previous 21 matches - the third being the game Arthur spoke about in the interview - 2-1 at home to Reading on December 1st 1962.

It goes to show exactly what the 'Palace Rollercoaster' is all about when you consider that after that interview - Palace went on to win 14 and draw 5 of the remaining 25 matches - basically promotion form. We came from bottom to finish 11th and although I knew nothing about it at the time (I was born on April 9th, 1963) Palace won 5 in a row in April - which would probably be as good as any finish to any season.

Arthur was a prophet!

Same here. Always had to imagine what he sounded like until now:lux:

He looked like he thought the interviewer was a wanker. Same as the Sky lot today like that prick Geoff Shreeves.

Haven't seen that before, fantastic, brought back all the old feelings :love: , thank you :p
