Play off final 1989
Palace 3 Blackburn 0
Probably my favourite of all our promotions since '79. What a day. What a comeback. What a pitch invasion.
Having narrowly missed out on promotion the previous two seasons, the pressure to finally go up after 8 years out of the top flight was almost unbearable. Could we really keep Ian Wright another season if we failed again?
Thankfully we didn't. Travelling home from the first leg at Blackburn 3-1 down was painful. It really felt like we'd blown it. But no one was going to stop Coppell and the boys this time. Bar the Burnley night in '79; I can't recall a more joyous occasion at Selhurst.
