westendgirl I thought it was longer ago than that - the year that they beat us 3 -0 near Christmas when they were in the relegation zone (Dowie's first game?) and then rose up the league to get into the play-offs and then beat Pardews West Ham in the play-offs. Wasn't it the first season SSC was here and said that Pardew told him you never lost 3-0 with 4-5-1 but we managed it 3 games running.

December 20th 2003, prior to the game we were 7th, they were 21st. They came to our place and won 3-0, their fans were singing coppel is a palace fan on the bus back to shire hall.
They finished 6th, we were 9th. They won the play offs
