According to Ian King’s comprehensive book “Crystal Palace: The Complete Record”, the score in the Terry Long testimonial was indeed 7-5 to the Internationals. Incidentally, the result of the George Petchey testimonial a year later against an International X1 was 6-3 to Palace.

That is really disappointing for a player who had the second highest number of appearances for the club. I remember reading that Peter Simpson’s family were disappointed as to the lack of acknowledgment from the club regarding his achievements. His scoring record was phenomenal

If I remember correctly Terry Long was in the first team squad for Palace in 5 different divisions. Div 1, Div 2, Div 3, Div 4 and Div 3 South. He played on the pitch in all of them except Division 1 but I believe he was the one allowed substitute in one game but didn't actually get on the pitch.
I am determined to live until I am as old as I look. |
