And later joined the exclusive 'Played for both WWFCs' club. Can probably make a whole 11 out of that: Norris, Williamson, Johnson, Hause, Campbell, Vokes...
Whenever I see posts about the Selhurst Park Alan Smith I’m reminded of an amusing exchange when he addressed the players for the first time, boasting that he’d taken Palace right up to Premier League. Apparently, Simon Garner responded with “and brought them straight back down again”. And I bet he didn’t say it sotto voce !

How could you miss out Cyrille Regis?
Dammit, I knew that as well! WBA, Wolves, Villa and Cov
He left us 7 years ago and is fast approaching being Sunderland’s 20th highest appearance maker.
He is contracted until June 2026 and as Captain he will not doubt stay with them next season if they go up or don’t.

Nah. He 100% deserves a shot at the PL.
