Crystal Palace have signed winger JASON PUNCHEON on a season-long loan deal.
PUNCHEON moves to SE25 from Southampton where he put in some sterling performances last season.
The 27-year-old has joined up with Ian Holloway for the second time after playing for him during a loan spell in the 2010/11 season at Blackpool.
The Croydon born midfielder made 34 appearances for the the Saints in all competitions last season and scored seven times.
Speaking to the official Palace website he said: "I think it's a great move for myself to come and play games. Obviously Crystal Palace are my hometown club and more importantly Ian Holloway is here as well.
"I know Ollie really well. He was a massive factor in this move.
"He knows the league. He's done it before and I think he will learn from his time at Blackpool and bring it into the team here.
"I actually played for Crystal Palace as a kid when I was eight. I left and there were a few times in my career that I was due to come back but didn't. Now I'm here that's the main thing.
"I've always as a young kid dreamed of playing at Selhurst Park, so it's a young boy's dream coming true."
