    117 - TIMBER!

    Palace lose 3-2 to Ipswich and there’s plenty to get into. We take a proper look at the defensive frailties, a group of players still getting to know each other, the adjustment to a new style of play and whether there were any signs of what Pierre Sage is ultimately trying to build. There was at least one - Jørgen Strand Larsen’s equaliser, which gave us a glimpse of what a Sage Palace might eventually look like when it all clicks. And after the final whistle, the good news is that everyone reacted to the defeat with complete calm, perspective and restraint... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    116 - Yes, Sage!

    Palace beat Fulham 3-2 and Middlesbrough 3-0, and while neither result is enough to start getting carried away, they do at least feel like the first baby steps towards something resembling a decent football team. We talk Pierre Sage leaving Guessand and McNeill out of the squad after poor performances, and whether a bit of ruthlessness is exactly what this group needs. Jørgen Strand Larsen has also started brightly, which means there’s only one sensible question to ask: is he the messiah? Elsewhere, we get into the Palace Women substitution debacle, wish Aki Riihilahti a happy 50th birthday, and take another look at the transfer window with some alternative choices for Palace’s best and worst signings.

    115 - Lyon Flights

    The transfer window is entering its final hours and Palace are right in the middle of it. We discuss the will-he-won’t-he saga of Malick Fofana, Munoz heading to Forest, Liverpool unsettling Sarr and the arrival of Ahanor on loan, plus all the other rumours doing the rounds as the deadline approaches. Then it’s time for our annual season predictions. Who’ll finish as Palace’s top scorer? Who gets the most assists? Who’ll be Player of the Year? Where will we finish in the league? And, most importantly, what completely outrageous prediction are we willing to put our names to this time? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    114 - No Mercy on the Mersey

    Palace start the new season with defeat at Everton after a frustrating afternoon in front of goal. We talk missed chances, what went wrong and whether there were still signs to be encouraged by. Away from the pitch, there’s plenty going on. Mateta is reportedly trying to void his contract, Galatasaray are told Sarr is not for sale, there’s the latest on the Disasi loan and plenty more transfer talk. Hosted on Acast.

    113 - The Transfer Special

    It's transfer time. Terence and Hesketh are joined by Carl to work through your questions and try to make sense of what Palace are actually doing. Why was Pierre Sage the standout choice? What's holding up the Gozo deal? And, after the departures of Guehi and Lacroix, where exactly are the centre-backs? We get into links with Ordonez, Disasi and Camera, whether selling Munoz if the key to unlocking the rest of the window, what happened to Jordan James, the Johnson/McNeil swap and who else Palace might be willing to move on. Plus: Doucoure’s future, contract renewals, Alessandro Brito's South American scouting, and whether Carl has been on the end of any meltdowns in the DMs. Everything you wanted to know about Palace's transfer window. Or at least everything that Carl was willing to tell us. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    112 - Where to start?

    Where to start indeed. We haven’t recorded since Palace won the Conference League and, safe to say, we’ve missed a bit. Pierre Sage is the new Palace manager, Glasner has somehow ended up at Forest, and the Forest owner is now suing Palace for defamation. Normal summer, then. There’s transfer stuff to get through too. Tomiyasu, Kamada, Mingueza the piano player and who might still be coming or going before the window shuts. Brennan Johnson has lasted just six months at Palace before heading to Everton, with Dwight McNeil coming the other way. Given Johnson was our second-most expensive signing ever, Terence and Sam use that as an excuse to go through some of Palace’s other transfer disasters. And finally, the kits. More specifically, is the new away kit actually one of the worst we’ve ever had? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    111 - Your 2026 Conference League Winners

    Crystal Palace have won another trophy. What has the world come to? Terence, Albert and Hesketh look back on an incredible few days in Leipzig where Oliver Glasner signed off with a third trophy in 12 months and help to ensure that his successor will be playing European football next season. This episode also includes interviews out in Germany with Ben Bailey Smith aka Doc Brown, Sam Murley - who travelled from Hong Kong for the game - Hesketh's wife Vanessa and Stefan from block B of the Holmesdale.

    110 - Adam Wharton's Mum

    Adam Wharton scored his first goal for Crystal Palace at Brentford, much to the delight of his Mum who danced to the tune of the Selhurst sound in the away end. Terence, Albert and Hesketh look back at the 2-2 draw in West London, look ahead to Arsenal's visit to South London and cover 'Spygate', Mother doing very Well and whether or not the latest managerial shuffle points Iraola towards the Palace dugout.

    109 - We're on our way

    Terence, Albert and Hesketh are back for episode 109, We’re On Our Way. There’s chaos off the pitch as Eagle Holdings head into administration, while former Palace goalkeeper Nigel Martyn eyes an England Over-60s cricket call-up. We also celebrate a BAFTA win for Palace fan Holly Walsh and reveal what listeners can win in the raffle supporting Terence’s Palace for Life ‘Bike From Arsenal’ charity ride. On the pitch, Palace march into the UEFA Europa Conference League Final after a memorable 2-1 win over FC Shakhtar Donetsk at Selhurst Park, before a dramatic 2-2 draw with Everton F.C. on Sunday. Both games saw another goal from the unstoppable Ismaïla Sarr, who now has 20 goals for the season — becoming the first Palace player to hit that mark in a Premier League campaign since Andy Johnson in 2004/05.

    108 - The Holmesdale Fanatics Interview

    Terence, Albert and Hesketh are joined by John from the Holmesdale Fanatics, marking the group’s first appearance on the podcast. The discussion begins with the launch of the Fanatics fanzine, with its inaugural issue documenting the group’s history, their European journeys to date, and featuring interviews with ultra groups from across the world. The conversation then turns to the group’s displays and songs, their relationship with the club, and their vision for the future. The episode concludes with a reflection on some of the most significant moments since the Holmesdale Fanatics were formed in 2005. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    107 - The Canvot Convo

    Terence and Hesketh wax lyrical about Jaydee Canvot as his performances against Fiorentina and West Ham hit new levels. The trip to Florence is discussed as well as looking ahead to Donetsk in Poland next week in the Conference League semi final, before finishing on a review of the 0-0 draw against relegation threatened West Ham.

    106 - Italian Tears

    After a long international break, Terence, Albert and Hesketh return to relive a brilliant night under the Selhurst Park lights, as Palace trounce ACF Fiorentina 3-0 to all but book a place in the Conference League semi-finals. We then turn to Newcastle United F.C., where JP Mateta’s 9th and 10th league goals of the season ease any lingering relegation fears and suddenly have us looking up at a very tight table… could Champions League qualification still be on?

    105 - Nil-Nil for Real

    Nil-nil and not much thrill. Palace follow up a frustrating stalemate against Larnaca with another toothless 0-0, this time against ten-man Leeds... and somehow it’s even harder to watch. Terence, Albert and Hesketh discuss the two games where the goals never came, the spark never lit, and patience may finally be wearing thin. Oliver Glasner’s post-match comments raise eyebrows (again), with more pointed takes on Palace traditions that don’t quite land with the faithful. Hosted on Acast.

    104 - Sarr's Nose

    Palace head to North London and leave Tottenham in absolute disarray. Ismaïla Sarr bags a brace as the Eagles thrash Spurs on their own patch, sending the hosts hurtling towards the Championship and giving the travelling Palace fans every excuse to celebrate. Party? Ball? Very much had. Elsewhere in the wonderfully chaotic world of football, Oliver Glasner has somehow managed to pick up a six-month driving ban after speeding down the Old Kent Road, while over in Brazil a match descended into utter madness with 23 red cards shown in a single game. Just another normal week in football. We also look ahead to Thursday night’s Conference League clash at Selhurst Park against AEK Larnaca. Can Palace avenge the 1-0 defeat from the league stage and take a step closer to Europe’s latter rounds? Terence, Albert and Hesketh pick through the goals, the nonsense and the fallout from a glorious night for Palace in N17. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    103 - Same Old Trafford Story

    Another trip to Old Trafford, another tale of officiating woe. Terence, Albert and Hesketh relive Palace’s defeat at Manchester United, where the referee from Manchester apparently decided to let Harry Maguire take charge instead, resulting in Maxence Lacroix seeing red and United being handed a penalty that felt all too familiar. Next up it’s Spurs away, with both sides stumbling badly. With Tottenham winless in ten and Palace searching for momentum, the big question is simple: when two footballing patients meet, will it be Dr Palace or Dr Spurs performing the surgery? Finally, Stel from the This is Mappa Cypriot Football Podcast joins us to explain exactly what on earth is going on at AEK Larnaca, with Palace’s upcoming Conference League opponents seemingly going nuclear at the worst possible time.

    102 - Humble

    With the fanbase previously split on Glasner’s future, one word poured petrol on the fire. We unpack the fallout from the “humble” comments, the mood inside Selhurst as banners went up, and why the tide of opinion has finally turned against the manager. Terence recounts the chaos of missing his flight back from Bosnia as we break down the performance against Zrinjski and what the second leg could have in store. Back on home soil, there’s a much-needed win over Wolves to savour, from the fans’ reaction to Pino’s substitution, to Chris “Jimi Hendrix” Richards riffing at the back, and Guessand striking the decisive note. Not a full-blown revival just yet, but perhaps the first flickers of cohesion, resilience and belief that better days might not be too far away. Hosted on Acast.
