Pull the other one! Having looked into it, it’s so disingenuous of them to claim to be the continuation of a club that disbanded in 1875. I wasn't aware of this until I saw your post. Here's an interesting read from a Palace fan who disputes this revisionism The first Crystal Palace FC played on a portion of the cricket field, was formed in the 1861/62 season and folded during 1875/76. No results can be found for more than 20 years since and they are no longer listed in the Football Annuals. The Athletic News, in 1883, clearly reports that CPFC disbanded as they could not come to an agreement with the owners of their pitch in Crystal Palace Park. This was divulged in a match report of a team calling itself Crystal Palace Rovers that played against the Pilgrims, in Walthamstow. The writer says the idea of Crystal Palace Rovers was “to revive the past glories of the old Crystal Palace Club, which, in its day, was one of the strongest metropolitan societies, but eventually came to grief owing to a misunderstanding with the Palace authorities about their ground.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My problem with Leeds is the weird peacock stuff, if they kept it simple and clean it would be nice Nice doesn't sell for £70 when you've been relegated I spose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wezbid Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Wrexham away and 3rd shirts. The white one has the macron and club badge smushed against the middle, not a fan but love the black one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 My bigger issue with the away is that United airlines logo is blue, should match the green 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Kind of wish the badge was more aligned with the United logo. I do like the away shirt though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's inspired by the elegant architecture of the town, especially the Poundland shop in the Saddlers Centre. The colour was inspired by the algae that grows on the canal basin by the Wharf bar and is a tribute to all the inebriated patrons who've fallen in thinking the algae was grass. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
