The main stand enclosure looks especially neat in that video with it's white wall. Although seriously lacking in cover, Selhurst was fab back then. No tosser stewards in yellow jackets, no annoying goal music to assault the eardrums; just a muddy pitch with 22 'normal' men playing for a decent rather than obsecene wage. Bliss :love: |

And fans went Berserko when their team scored a goal,
Bouncing,swaying terraces,full of longer more personal songs,towards players regarded as proper heros, Songs such as...At number 1 we got ######,we got the best team in the land,.....that song would continue for ages until you'd gone through the whole team,i'm sure Palace had the same....:lux: |

Try this one, Palace versus Yer Actual West 'Am from 1971... we lost as usual (it was the game where Ade Coker scored on his debut and then vanished off the face of the earth), but there's an absolutely cracking panorama of Selhurst Park to open proceedings and, actually, we played quite well...

Thanks for that Tony, remember that match because not only was it Coker's debut and goal but also John Hughes making his home debut.
Blimey, just looked at the record books, home attendance for the Manure was bigger than the attendance at Old Trafford. How times have changed. As you say, it's a cracking panorama of Selhurst Park but, as ever, can't see myself in the crowd :o |
thanks and what a great 2nd goal for nicky chatterton in the swindon 3-3 game :)

Odd seeing camera men by the goals, and also goalkeepers picking up the backpass.
Lampard.... like father like son! Fat and dirty! A lot of "names" in that West Ham team. |
Another very old piece of footage from 71... Palace away at the Arse (guess what, we lost again). This is grainy black and white stuff, and seems to be almost in slow motion, but our goal can be seen at the end.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rucGObE4OM0 This is the same thing, but the picture quality might be slightly better... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TaMt7XxatA |
is there any early/mid 80's stuff on Youtube?
|
Somewhere on there, I think, is that appalling 0-0 draw with Burnley in about 1983 featuring Tommy Langley and Chris Jones at their incomparable worst.
Actually, there's not as much stuff as one might have hoped. I thought perhaps some fans of other clubs might have put stuff up of their teams playing us, but most of the available Palace material appears to be from more recent season goals videos. Swindon Town's official site has the 1989 play-off and that can be found on YouTube. We just weren't on tv much in the 80s I suppose. |

What a goal by Steve Perrin in the win at Stoke in 1977. |
Boy... was that being transmitted from Mars?

Currently on ITV4.
Chelsea v Liverpool with Tommy Langley playing up-front for Chelsea. He's just skyed one into The Shed from about 10 yards. I missed the start; it's quite an old season. There's a youthful Ray Wilkins and even Chopper bloody Harris still playing for Chelsea. No doubt there will be a few other carthorses that they managed to fob-off on us during the 80's. |
