Neil Shipperley

Palace win their second game of the season beating Watford by one goal to nil.

It was Neil Shipperley who scored the only goal of the match on 14 minutes, heading home Danny Butterfield's cross.

Debutant Michael Hughes was sent off after two bookable offences. That means that Palace have seen four players sent off in the first three matches this season.
