Remembering Selhurst

[Mouse28]

1989 - the match with 5 penalties, 4 for Palace, they missed 3 and scored 1 we scored ours. Lost 2-1

Great game, is this still the world record for most penalties in a game without a shootout?

 

[little al]

I think it is still a record. I have an hours worth of that game on DVD.

I'd rather not remember Selhurst if it's alright with you. What a shit hole. Enough to put you off your dinner looking at images like this:

It is the British record for most penalties but is just 1 short of the world record - i think this was a Greek league game but not sure of the year.

Still remember this game really clearly - Ian Wright's goal (and I hate to admit it) was incredible............

[blue'n'white]

Christ almighty yeah I remember that - and Wendy not only making a tackle but also getting booked for it. That must have been a record in itself !! I remember Mike Trusson getting sent off and the 5 penalties but not much more
Thanks for putting this up

Having watched the highlights of that game again - Kelvin Morton was light years ahead of the fashion, wasn't it. That match was all about him, the way he theatrically dances to a certain spot everytime he awards a penalty. Jesus he wouldn't be out of place today. As for Mike Trussons sending off, well, he be (un)lucky to get a red card today, in 88/89 he did nothing wrong. And we should have equalised at the end, with 10 men.

 

[TottonSeagull]

I remember the Palace groundsman coming up our end at half time and start painting the penalty spot, nearly incited a riot!

 

[Mo Gosfield]

Are you boys sure it was 89?....from memory I thought it was around 91...I stand to be corrected.
