The Legacy

Ian Wright arrived from Greenwich Borough in 1985 and continued his rise through the ranks for Crystal Palace in the Second Division throughout 1987-1988. Alongside Mark Bright, who joined the attack, and midfielder Geoff Thomas, the team pushed for promotion under Steve Coppell. This home shirt manufactured by Admiral appeared during the term, featuring the Top Score sponsor on the front. Palace finished in mid-table before the following year saw them reach the First Division through the play-offs.

Key Moment

This season marked the early partnership of the legendary strike duo Ian Wright and Mark Bright, who would go on to define the club's offensive identity for years to come.
