The FA finally relented in 1905.

The full story of the Crystal Palace Company's decade-long struggle to persuade the Football Association to allow Palace to be formed can be found in Volume 2 of the Origin of Crystal Palace FC which can be found here:

It may have been blue and white hoops. There is a tradition that the 1861-1875 amateur Crystal Palace FC played in those colours but I have been unable to determine the origin of that story.

Without any hard evidence, I have taken a guess that 1861CPFC kit was very thin blue and white hoops, pretty much like this old Middlesex Rugby shirt in style.

Anybody else noticed that our CF was called A.N. Guy?

Perhaps they picked up any guy from the street to play up there; after all, it's often not been a specialist position for us

Can only assume Hennessey came on with 15 minutes to go then?

Several players in both the Villa and Palace sides named there, Smith, Crabtree, Reynolds for AV and Stanbrough, Henfrey and Topham for CP were England full internationals, so probably a good standard for the era.
