Season summary In their second consecutive season in the First Division, Crystal Palace finished an astonishing third, their highest ever league placing, although, due to Liverpool's ban from European competition being lifted early, Palace did not qualify for the UEFA Cup. Palace also won their first ever cup during the season, albeit the less significant Full Members' Cup. In the League Cup, Palace broke their record for a cup victory with an 8–0 over Southend United, in the second round first leg, with strikers Mark Bright and Ian Wright both scoring hat-tricks. The two claimed the match ball; it was given away at a charity auction.Top 10 hat-tricks - Crystal Palace FC Supporters' Website - The Holmesdale Online At the end of the season, captain Geoff Thomas was named the Supporters' Player of the Year. Thomas was rewarded for his good form with a call-up to the England squad for a European Championship qualifying game against Turkey in May. Bukta remained Palace's kit manufacturers, and introduced a new home kit for the season. English airline Virgin Atlantic remained the kit sponsors.Crystal Palace Historical Football Kits Final league table 1990–91 Football League y CRY Results summary 11 6 2 26 17 9 3 7 24 24 Statto October 2015 Results by round table b Round Ground A/H/H/A/H/A/A/H/A/H/A/H/A/A/H/A/H/A/H/H/A/A/H/A/H/A/A/H/H/A/A/H/H/H/H/A/A/H Result D/W/W/W/D/D/W/D/D/W/L/D/W/W/W/L/W/W/W/W/L/W/L/W/D/L/L/W/W/W/L/L/D/W/D/L/W/W Position 8/4/4/2/4/5/4/4/4/4/4/4/4/4/3/4/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3 Home Away green2 Win yellow2 Draw red2 Loss 1st 2nd 3rd red1 Statto.com October 2015 Results Crystal Palace's score comes firsthttp://www.statto.com/football/teams/crystal-palace/1990-1991/results Crystal Palace results for the 1990-1991 season -
