Not Selhurst. Consensus of opinion on another site is that this is a picture of The Nest. I haven't seen this in any of the Palace histories have you?

This is me playing in goal for Sylvan High School in the Croydon Schools Cup Final in 1980.

I reckon it's taken either at a reserve game or a bit after the Blackpool game on 28.12.68 was abandoned. John Jackson in goal and it looks like Jack Taylor was the referee. Ref wasn't Jack Taylor but it was Jacko in goal. Pic shows referee getting an earful from Mark Lazarus....

We had the away dressing rooms. I remember sitting their at the end of the game thinking of the legends that had sat in that room: Charlton, Best, Moore..... I also remember feeling a little down as this was the closest i'd ever get to living the dream.

Just came across this on a Russian football site - apparently it's Selhurst! Anyone recognise the picture and have any idea when it was taken ?

What none of the photos convey is the sheer height of the three open sides. Lounging on the grass at the Whitehorse End is a fond memory as was the ability to move up the other end at half-time in the expectation of Cliff Holton letting loose another cannonball. Happy days.
