Crystal Palace fan John Pienaar is the presenter of the Drive programme on Times Radio and was previously Deputy Political Editor at the BBC. Here, he talks to Richard Foster about back-to-back wins at Goodison Park and his earliest memory of life as an Eagle.
John Pienaar’s first Crystal Palace match was in 1967. "It was an evening game at Selhurst, possibly against Huddersfield," he says. "I must admit my memory of games is quite scratchy so I cannot remember a single thing about the match itself apart from the noise; the smell of onions, tobacco and beer, along with the clouds of smoke.
