Pre Crystal Palace...................
As a young boy living in Brixton, my first experience of football was at Stamford Bridge supporting Chelsea in the 70's. I moved to Charnwood Road in 1982 and started sneaking in the Palace when Sainsbury's was being built. You all know the rest

You lived in Brixton and supported Chelsea, AW?
But surely, Palace were your LOCAL team! ![]() I also spent my childhood in Brixton, and I'm sure the bus ride to Selhurst Park is closer than going to Stockexchange Bridge... |

I was first taken to watch Dulwich Hamlet when I was 4 years old, and even then I realised non league football wasn't for me, so when I was 5 I was taken to the Palace, At least it wasn't the muppets from Stamford Bridge.

As a kid Sutton Utd were the biggest club.In Sutton where I grew up. However when I was 8 or 9 my dad bought me a Man U shirt despite the fact that I liked Colin Bell of Man City. Thing is a hard bitten cynical Palace fan I can't stand either Manc club.
