Show Notes
It’s international break time, but there’s still plenty going on at Palace. We round up which Eagles have been making an impact for their countries, before giving exactly the appropriate amount of attention to a 2-0 friendly defeat to Bristol City.
Off the pitch, Steve Parish has been talking to The Athletic about everything from the Holmesdale Fanatics and the Selhurst atmosphere to the Main Stand, Sarr, Mateta and life under Pierre Sage. Meanwhile, Palace are reportedly seeking new investment at a valuation of £900m. Yes, £900m.
We also talk on the Manchester City financial ruling, what they’ve actually been found guilty of and what an appropriate punishment looks like.
Plus, we look ahead to Oliver Glasner’s return to Selhurst with Nottingham Forest. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Well, that was thoroughly depressing. A defeat in Lyon, some disgraceful treatment of Palace fans by the French authorities, and then the small matter of a 5-0 humiliation against Brighton. Sacré bleu!
“At the end of the day, we always win.” Well, Evangelos, not this time.
Palace are back winning in Europe, with a victory over Lech Poznań inspired, naturally, by Terence’s daughter.
Palace beat Fulham 3-2 and Middlesbrough 3-0, and while neither result is enough to start getting carried away, they do at least feel like the first baby steps towards something resembling a decent football team.
