    Crystal Palace are already discussing this with their legal team, but have in the meantime re-branded their website to reflect their position as the second oldest club in the world.

    I understand that they are also considering a change of strip to that of Real Madrid, because they have more Champions League wins than Barcelona.

    In a further development, they also plan to get rid of "Eagles" as their mascot and nickname. However, they want to maintain the avian link and will therefore from now on be known as "Cocks".

    Ha ha, great stuff. Just highlights how spurious Palace's claim is.

    Thanks for the feedback and glad that people enjoyed our little joke at the expense of other clubs who feel the need to invent a history for themselves

    Didn't get a programme but was telling my wife about the CAFC new bags April Fool from 2006(?). This was a great idea as it highlights the ludicrous claims of Woy's Warriors to be the oldest club in the League.
