Gregg got his first Palace goal
Trevor Francis got his first away win as Palace boss with a hard-fought 2-1 win at Bradford City.
It was only Palace's second win in the last 10 and their first away win since beating Wolves in October. While it was managerless Bradford's sixth loss in the last seven games.
Alex Kolinko carrying on his great recent form, was the Palace hero, denying the Bantams a draw with a number of outstanding saves.
Gregg Berhalter scored his first goal for the club when he opened the scoring with a 33rd minute freekick, drilled through the wall from the edge of the box.
Bradford equalised with the last kick of the first half when Robbie Blake fired home from 12 yards after being set up by Juanjo and Lee Sharpe.
Loan signing from Leicester Trevor Benjamin got the winning goal a minute into the second half with a 15-yard curler.
And palace held out for the win as Kolinko pulled off top-drawer saves from Juanjo twice, Ashley Ward, Wayne Jacobs and Stuart McCall.
