When Eagles Dare - answered: administration, protests and survival in 2010

The first episode of When Eagles Dare takes a look back at the years before the 2012/13 season when the club was on the brink of being liquidated in 2010.

Though Crystal Palace were saved by Steve Parish and the CPFC 2010 consortium, it was by no means easy and survival likely wouldn’t have been achieved if it wasn’t for the efforts of the fans protesting outside Lloyds Bank and Selhurst Park.

The club were placed into administration on 27th January 2010, which meant a 10-point deduction and a relegation battle for the rest of the season.
