Sverige äventyret är över
Palace besegrade Oddevold med 4-1.
Palace besegrade igår Divison 2 laget Oddevold på Rimnersvallen i Uddevalla. Unge James Dayton gav Palace ledingen innan hemmalaget överraskande kvitterade genom David Engelbrektsson.
Palace kunde dock säkra segern genom mål av Clinton Morrison, Dave Martin och Ben Watson. Det sista efter en snygg frispark.

Några citat från Sverigeturnèn;
"I'm in Sweden at the moment, we're here as part of our pre-season tour. We played IFK Gothenburg last night (Tues) and we put on a good show to beat them 2-1. It was great to see so many Swedish Palace fans as well, it a bit of a surprise and I'm not sure what the connection is there, but it was good to see!"
Ben Watson
"Just got back from Sweden, the palace sweden lads were great, we took over a pub in Grebbestad and lots of locals started taking pics. The ground was loverly although quite wet, we played very well first half, lost it a bit in the second but a good work out, well done to all the palace fans who made the trip, it was well worth it, and a big shout for the swedish palace fans who were great company."

"Having read your enthusiastic comments I just thought I'd say how great it is to read something posted by people who appreciate the joy of being a Palace fan and that the club should be proud to have supporters like you (and, of course all the Swedish Palace and those who travelled) . I hope your words actually inspire some of the regular fans who have forgotten what it's like to just go and enjoy themselves, whatever the result/weather/opponent. Watching Palace should be something we all hold in as high regard as you do and you've certainly reminded me how lucky I am to be able to watch every match."

"I echo Hambo's comments.
It's great to hear from Palace fans (that I didn't really know existed in Sweden!) having such a great time supporting the team despite barely every getting the chance to see us.
Your comments are wonderful to hear, and you are a credit to this club."
