Congratulations AJ and thanks for the additional stats ....
George Clarke (Palace career 1925-1933 is indeed the answer). Your point about the position being a bit flexible is also correct (more so in those days). George was primarily a winger (also called outside left in those days) and contributed 106 goals in 299 games. Another wonderful Palace player from the past I'll give you all a rest now until tomorrow ..... |

Does anyone know what the Manager Edmond Goodman didn't have? Last edited by AJ; 17-10-2002 at 09:40 PM. |

Yep, that's it. His whole story is somewhat interesting. He was a good player, then lost a leg, then moved into coaching/management at Aston Villa and then joined Palace. I think, although, not sure, that he may have got Palace's first shirt(from Villa), hence the similarity between Villa and Palace's shirts in the old days(claret and blue). |

Edmund Goodman is on the far right, thrid row down; he retired in 1927. (And yes, he did bring the claret and blues shirt from Villa.) Also in the pic is Roy McCracken, fourth from the left, top row, who I think was Palace's first international player (for Northern Ireland). |

I scored seven goals that season. All away from home. Who am I? |

OK ... who's the last (perhaps only) player to appear for Palace as an on-loan player who had previously played for Palace but been sold. |

Blyth came back to the club on loan from Millwall in 1977/78. It looks as though Nicholas came back very briefly on loan before he signed for Palace (doesn't look like there was a fee).
Anyone have today's answer then ? |
