Don't normally plug books but this one is special to us as we know the author very well.

Well done Neil the Eagle!

I just ordered it online and its number 2 on Amazon,that's not bad for a Palace book.

Crystal Palace FC is not exactly a club with a long-standing tradition of international achievement. South London’s stalwarts have made just one solitary foray into UEFA competition — to the much-derided and now defunct Intertoto Cup, which saw Palace immediately knocked out by a club located in Asia. And yet, throughout the club's long history, Palace teams have competed in a jumble sale of smaller tournaments and played a wealth of friendlies against foreign opposition, at home and overseas. From a supporter’s point-of-view, these adventures following the Eagles overseas, cheering them on as they face teams from around the world, are the lifeblood of the football experience. From Real Madrid to Santa Claus FC, from the United States to China, with hilarious and heart-warming supporters’ tales, join Crystal Palace fans down through the decades, as they cross the globe in pursuit of their Boys in Red & Blue. Don’t Mention the ‘Spor is written and collated by former Palace Echo editor, Neil Witherow. FOREWORD BY FORMER CO-CHAIR OF CRYSTAL PALACE FC, STEVE BROWETT.
