All this week, as we look forward to welcoming our heroes from 68/69, 78/79 and 88/89 back to Selhurst Park for the Everton game this Saturday, Crystal Palace will be looking back at the anniversaries of those three glorious promotion campaigns for the Eagles.
The hat-trick of interviews with the 1988/89 promotion team is completed by a teenager at the time, John Salako!
What was it like being a teenager and trying to make it at a club filled with established professionals?
It was proper old school. When you got a chance to come from the youth team and train with the main group it was such a special thing, but they knew if you were being given the chance to step up then you were looking to take their places.
