I was in the AW with my late Father. Rogers was the greatest performance i've ever seen by a Palace player. He was incredible and ripped them to shreds.

Don Rogers, one of the shrewdest bits of business by Bert Head. I was there at that game and I am sure if Head had stayed and not been replaced by Allison just at the important moment of that season, Palace would have stayed up. The new chairman wanted Head out and the result of this new chairman's stewardship was the sale of the Whitehorse End to Sainsbury. Bloye was a director of the biggest grocery chain in UK. His gain our loss, but the memory of Don that day cannot be dimmed. Lets do it again, no relegation this time!

I was in the AW for that one too - Is my memory playing tricks on me, or did Man U score an offside "goal" when we were 1-0 up? Well off if I remember correctly, but was convinced they were going to come back at us at some stage, even when we were a few goals up... I've learnt to keep the faith since then!
