Palace Heroes & Legends

Palace Heroes and Legends talks directly to some of the great players in Crystal Palace's eventful post-War history about the relegations, promotions, cup runs, play-offs and bust-ups which are ingrained in every fans' memory. Terrace idols and cult legends have been tracked down and interviewed to establish what it was really like to be a Glazier or an Eagle and to record their unique memories about the club. Palace Heroes and Legends is a must for any true fan tired of mere facts and figures - these are real stories from the mouths of real Selhurst Park heroes.

"The subject of Malcolm Allison probably divides Palace fans like no other, the best of times and the worst of times, all mixed together. It was the same in the dressing room. He had an ability to walk in before a game and almost immediately lift the team, as a motivator he could be great, he could get a whole room of people behind him in two seconds flat. But give him five minutes, well, he'd have almost the same number of people wanting to kill him."
