Matchday Programmes

Our season-long celebration of 100 years of Selhurst Park continues in the Crystal Palace v Brentford matchday programme.

Each programme this season comes with a unique, illustrated front cover marking a moment in Selhurst Park's 100-year history, with this edition commemorating the arrival of Malcolm Allison in 1973 – the manager who duly inspired our red and blue kit colours, and our nickname, 'The Eagles'!

Inside, Justin Devenny – who has experienced a remarkable 18 months since joining from Scottish Championship side Airdrionians in the summer of 2023 – tells his story in his own words.

"I’m grateful for the contract – and it’s time to kick on," he said. "I come off the training pitch here every day having learned something new. Being able to train with such great players... all the boys want the best for me, which is all anyone can ask."

Remember to collect all 19 Premier League issues this season to create your own piece of Selhurst Park history!

You can get your Brentford programme from vendors around the ground for just £3.50.
