The Legacy
Jim Cannon anchored the Crystal Palace defence throughout the 1984-1985 Second Division campaign. The side relied on the experience of goalkeeper George Wood to keep the scorelines respectable in a demanding league. Jerry Murphy continued his involvement on the pitch while the team sought to improve their standing under the Top Score sponsorship. Palace finished 15th that year, maintaining their second-tier status under the Hummel manufacturing deal. It was a period of settling in for the squad as they managed the pressures of the division across a long winter of professional football.
Key Moment
Crystal Palace used the 1984-1985 season to build the foundation for the promotion push that would define the late 80s under Steve Coppell.
