Whyteleafe FC

Palace play their first game on home soil against Whyteleafe on Wednesday night.

Whyteleafe are currently in the Rymans League Division One South, and have organised the match against Palace as a testimonial for their player Danny Rose.

Steve Kember will take a full first team squad to Whyteleafe's Church Road ground on Wednesday night, so the Palace fans who turn up might see Neil Shipperley back in a Palace shirt.

He told the official Palace website today: "The Whyteleafe game is a testimonial and we will give most of the squad some part of the match whilst from the Luton game I will start to play a more settled side with the Chelsea game seeing a line up which will be close to that which starts the season at Burnley."

The match kicks off at 7:30pm and tickets on the night will cost £8.00 for adults and £4.00 for children/OAPs.
