Today's special word is,

Today's special word is, to mark the occasion of Crystal Palace V Middlesborough at Selhurst Park this afternoon, and in honour of , so I am told, one of the nicest men to ever put on an Eagles top, SOUTHGATE. Say the word at the counter today and tomorrow and get a 10% discount on any purchase excepting Book Tokens and some special orders. If the Eagles manage to win by 2 clear goals, I'll even make it 20%.

Thank you for reading.
