My favourite shirt with Mark Bright: I immediately regretted throwing my Crystal Palace shirt into the crowd after our 1990 FA Cup semi-final win vs Liverpool... it meant so much to me!

Palace had been beaten 9-0 by Liverpool in the league, so when we got revenge in the FA Cup semi-final at Villa Park I threw my shirt into the crowd out of sheer excitement and celebration.

I regretted it almost immediately and years later a fan got in touch to say they had it and showed me a picture of it. I offered to buy it off him as it meant so much to me — but he wouldn’t sell!

It was the most memorable win of my career, and a 4-3 thriller at that.
