Not long until that pre-match routine returns and you will have your matchday programme in hand as excitement for the Eagles kicking off at Selhurst Park builds.
The first home matchday programme will be for the Hertha Berlin friendly on Saturday 3rd August, which will include an interview with an iconic fan favourite from the early-to-mid 00s.
As always, the matchday messageboard in the programme will give Eagles a chance to send messages to family, friends, work colleagues and the like. If you want to get a message in for the Hertha Berlin programme, then simply email the photo you'd like used, with your message (max 25 words) to programme@cpfc.
