The Legacy
Terry Venables returned as manager for the 1998-1999 Division One campaign after Palace had finished bottom of the Premier League the previous year. TDK replaced their long-term sponsor on this Adidas home shirt. Financial instability surrounded the club, eventually leading to administration that spring. Despite the uncertainty, Clinton Morrison established himself as a regular goalscorer. Hayden Mullins anchored the midfield throughout the league programme, while Fan Zhiyi became a central figure in the defence. The side struggled for rhythm and finished 14th, marking a quiet return to the second tier of English football.
Key Moment
Crystal Palace signed Fan Zhiyi and Sun Jihai in 1998-1999, making them the first Chinese players to play in English football.
