The top 10 televised Crystal Palace goals of all time voted by the fans.

9. Don Rogers v Stoke City
Division One - February 17, 1973
Don Rogers played a one-two with Alan Whittle in the centre of a boggy Selhurst Park, jinked his way past two defenders before cooly lofting over the keeper.
8. Ian Wright (2) v Man Utd

John Salako delivered a peach of a cross from the left to the far post where Wright got ahead of his marker to volley into the roof of the net for his second goal since coming on as a sub.
7. Alan Pardew v Liverpool
FA Cup Semi-final - April 8, 1990
Alan Pardew became an instant hero with the Palace faithful when he headed in the winning goal after ANDY Thorn had flicked on ANDY Gray's corner kick.
6. John Hughes v Sheffield United
Division One - December 4, 1971
John Hughes collected a short free-kick just inside the United half and surged towards goal before firing a 25-yard rocket into the top left corner.
5. Ian Wright (2) v Wimbledon
Division One - May 4, 1991

4. Ian Wright (1) v Man Utd
FA Cup Final - May 12, 1990
Mark Bright slipped in strike partner Wright on the left of the area and he left a sorry Gary Pallister flat on his backside and drilled a low shot past Jim Leighton into the far corner for his first goal of the day.
3. Dougie Freedman v Stockport
Division One - May 6, 2001
David Hopkin's huge punt forward from his own box was controlled by Clinton MORRISON and he fed Freedman who ghosted past two defenders and curled home the winner that kept Palace up.
2. Don Rogers (2) v Man Utd

Rogers got on the end of the perfect throughball before rounding the keeper and swept the ball home past three United defenders desperately trying to keep the fifth goal out.

ANDY Roberts played a short corner to Simon Rodger whose inswinging cross was headed out by Carl Tiler. The ball fell to David Hopkin 25 yards out and he took one touch before smacking a curling shot that flew into the top corner.
