Wasn’t this the game when one of our fans was stabbed? I was at the game and remember David Giles scoring the winner? | ![](/images/avatars/13823.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Was clearing through some old stuff earlier and found this on 19:46 - Aug 17 with 2347 views | Garyjack | I saw all three games of this tie. Make no mistake, Palace at the time were being proclaimed as the team of the 80's! A very classy side, but we deserved to win at the Vetch, and at Selhurst Park. Justice prevailed in that tie at Ninian in front of 15000+ jacks. As an aside for those that don't know. After the 3-3 draw at Palace, a coin was tossed to choose a neutral venue, we won and Toshack chose Ninian Park! | ![](/images/avatars/22410.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Giles was supposed to be the next kevin Keegan if I remember correct. Great player at the time. | ![](/images/avatars/9522.gif) |
