2 none down, 3-2 up, two world wars and one World Cup.
Last Saturday saw Crystal Palace do something they have never done. We went two goals down in the first 20 minutes. Then in stunning fashion, came back to win 3-2 with the winner in the last two minutes. The Eagles have not come back to win from two goals down in the history of the premier league. The Palace faithful drowned out deafening chants from other fans in Fados drawing confused faces from all around which seemed to say "Crystal who". Follow the link below to watch the goals.

The small troll looking guy who got two goals for us is Dwight Gayle. He's so potent in front of goal that he even has his own chant. And you can see it here for yourself performed beautifully by the Austin Eagles.
We play Southampton in the FA Cup this Saturday which isn't on TV. The next meeting of the Austin Eagles will be Saturday 31st January at 9am at Fados against the Toffeemen of Everton. They are right next to us in the league so another win would see us free from the pains of the relegation dogfight.
The fan's shirts and 5' wide Palace banner have finally arrived and if you come down for next week's game you will see it proudly hung under the TV.
See you there
