I suspect it could be incorporated by way of architect's "impression" of the old Crystal Palace but in a modern ground format.

This.

A good architect would be needed though.

Wouldn't want the stadium to look tacky as result of trying to give heritage a
----------------------------------

The design for such a façade could have easily been an 'open to all' competition. Local schools, Colleges, community, the fans etc etc. A simple competition- Here's the original Crystal Palace, design a modern one.
There's a huge pool of talent out there with some fantastic ideas, plus benefitting our club by way of massive LOCAL exposure.

Let the architects put the final touches/streamlining in place and Bob's your uncle .

Shame it won't happen though

this, always thought a redeveloped main stand should resemble the old crystal palace from the front, would be devastated if we ended up with something that resembles millwalls or any of the other stadiums with no identity.

Anything that resembles the old Crystal Palace will look terrible.

Selhurst Park is Selhurst park & shares no history with our previous ground in Crystal Palace park.

Quite right, and nothing like that will be happening on Mr Parish's watch; total fantasy.

This isn't about a new ground, it's about upgrading Selhurst Park, which will happen over the next five years.

If Sainsbury's get behind it too then I think it will be unstoppable. Croydon's profile is much higher from having a Premier League team in the borough and a Premier League team with a knackered old stadium isn't going to stay in the PL for long, particularly if TP gets p*issed off and leaves.

Cheerful Charlie Chester!.Well you never know your luck. When Steve Parish is roaming around with his fine feathered friends he one day may stumble on somebody who might just build a stadium for us and lease it back for 100 years. We certainly would not see the end of that lease but we would have a long time in which to enjoy the new surroundings. Lets hope so anyway!.

Don't you think we had enough stadium leasing post-Noades? There's no way that CPFC2010 would put themselves in the position of owning the club and not the ground again.

But we're crystal palace fc not selhurst park fc, whats the problem paying homage to the origins of our club on our current stadium.
