Club crest & colours[edit]
Since Crystal Palace formed in 1905, they have had a total of 9 official club crests[1] as well as a 2005 centenary badge.[citation needed] Note Crystal Palace were donated the claret and blue kits by Aston Villa on formation.
In 1973 when Malcom Alison became the manager of Palace he changed the club colours to red and a blue in aid of trying to modernise the clubs look, he also changed the club crest and nickname to the eagles.
