Eagles Through The Ages - A Brief History Of Crystal Palace F.C.

Through The Ages Podcast 9 - Episode 9 : Eagles and Seagulls The Story of English Football's Strangest Rivalry Duration (1974–2025)

Crystal Palace Football Club have been in existence for 120 years. For most of them, nothing much happened. Then, in May 2025, they won the FA Cup for the first time in their history.


Eagles Through the Ages tells the full story — from the club's founding in 1905 in the grounds of the original Crystal Palace building, through the wilderness years in the Fourth Division, the Malcolm Allison rebrand that turned the Glaziers into Eagles, the Venables era, the FA Cup final of 1990, two administrations, the fans who saved the club, the Wilfried Zaha decade, and the May afternoon at Wembley when Eberechi Eze scored the only goal against Manchester City and Crystal Palace finally won something.


Ten episodes. 120 years. One club from South London that refused, repeatedly and against considerable odds, to stop existing.
