Episode 6 Wrighty & Brighty — Steve Coppell, Ian Wright, and the Day Crystal Palace Nearly Won the FA Cup Duration: 30 minutes (1981–1991)

Steve Coppell arrived at Crystal Palace in 1984 with no managerial experience and a set of weightlifting equipment. Over the next decade he built something that had never existed at the club before: a team with a genuine identity, a style of play, and two strikers — Ian Wright and Mark Bright — who belonged in any company in English football.

Episode 4: The Glaziers Become Eagles Bert Head, Malcolm Allison, and the Birth of an Identity (1964–1976)

For most of their history, Crystal Palace had been the Glaziers — a name inherited from the glass industry surrounding the Crystal Palace building. In 1973, Malcolm Allison changed that. He changed the kit, changed the name, and changed the idea of what the club could be. The Eagles were born.
