sash throwback 50 years on from first being introduced the Sash is back for 2026/27. Also worn during the successful 1976/77 campaign, we’ll be jumping in the time machine throughout this season to see what was happening at the same point in the season back then.

Following our first away European tie of the season, the Eagles are back in league action three days later (Sunday, 18th October) for a trip to the south coast to face Brighton & Hove Albion. Our Women’s side are without a game this weekend due to the October international break, but they return to Women’s Super League action next weekend (Sunday, 18th October) by welcoming West Ham to the Engage 360 Stadium. Head to www.cpfc.co.uk/ tickets, or the Official Crystal Palace App, for more ticketing information.

Palace endured a mixed month in the first half of October. The first game of that period was a fiery trip to the south coast to take on Brighton at the Goldstone Ground, with play stopped three times as smoke bombs were thrown onto the pitch. That ended in a 1-1 draw – over a month before the famous FA Cup meeting between the two clubs.
