Didn't we have a 20 000 plus crowd for a league cup game against Hull in the 70s?

The record attendance was agains Hull City wasn’t it? In the 50s perhaps.

It was earlier Gaz, I wasn't around then!! I believe it was the time of Raich Carter.
The game I'm referring to was one I went to that Bob G mentioned below which I went to.

We did Iberian. It was on the way to the quarter final at White Hart Lane. Rovers won 2-0 (or 2-1?) on the night. Hull were a decent Div 2 side too at the time. Big crowd.  In the same cup run we had Malcolm Allison and his fedora in the Belle Vue dugout. Palace went up from the third division that season I think. That game ended 2-1I reckon so Hull was 2-0 I think. Can't be bothered to check. Got to belt up to Cheltenham to collect Alex.

That's the one Bob
