    Asking for trouble here but Palace have yet to lose an FA Cup semi, including the famous 4-3 triumph v Liverpool in 1990 with Alan Pardew's extra time winner. I was at our only two Final appearances in 1990 and 2016 - excruciating losses to Man U, either of which we would have deserved to win. Otherwise our Cup record is pretty undistinguished.

      The only trouble you'll get is if you say that to Saints fans.

          Thanks for correction. I did google it to check but the site it came up with was strangely incomplete https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/crys...rie/verein/873

              I didn’‘t like to mention it ! I was there that day. Paul Gilchrist’s wonder goal, and the celebrations in the Shed after David Peach’s clincher were both something to behold !

              Palace doing ok so far, by the look of it.

                  Bad luck Gurney. It was a very tough SF line up this year.

                    My two most unfavourite Scottish teams in the Scottish Cup Final this year...think I'll be giving that one a body swerve.

                    Great to see Arbroath fighting to the end in the Scottish Championship - looks like the game against their rivals for the title, Killie, is live on BBC Scotty on Friday night . Would be great to see them come up. Hopefully the Buddies can do enough to stay out of the relegation scrap - although we are 6 points clear of the kid-on Saints who are in second bottom, our form under the new manager has been pretty dire.

                    I notice there's a couple of games of interest on today down south. Best of fortune to anton's and Rob's mobs.

                      Makes one long for the days of Celtic V Hibs finals with both teams in green and white. Which seemed odd even back then.

                      Sure the Paisley Saints will be fine .

                          Got to love three vital promotion points on Easter monday.

                          My best Easter watching the Saints, was at all three games :
                          Good Friday beat Plymouth 4-1 at the Dell.
                          Saturday. 3-2 win at Eastville.
                          Monday 3-2 win home to Cardiff.

                            Brilliant result for Rob...I'd take three points any day of the week just now. Sorry the 'pool didn't manage a point at least, as they also got undone by a late, late show.

                            Them was the days, saint...jumpers for goalposts, and the goalie tapping his pipe against the goalposts at half time ...just a half a lemon per half too.
