soulboy, see the Crystal Palace Talent Factory thread. This article was posted there too.

 

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

i love it when our team has the best of all the South London boys.

but , its annoying when a South London talent ends up playing for Liverpool or some other moneyed club miles away. And the talent seems to have eluded us.

South London :

what other areas, on the Planet, produce as many top players per square mile ?

the favelas of Brazil ? nope
Amsterdam......? i doubt it

the suburbs of Milan ? not really.

Madeira ? a one-hit wonder

where else ?

 

Kayla did Anfield & Old Trafford
