Crystal Palace won at Craven Cottage for the third time this year, which raises the big philosophical question: do we get to keep Fulham now?The boys look ahead to the FA Cup defence with a first-round trip to Macclesfield – a new ground for many of the travelling faithful – and with four all-Premier League ties, we can’t help but ask: what’s stopping us from doing it all again in 2026?There’s plenty off the pitch too: breaking ground on the new stand in January, the prospect of buying another club and forming a MCO and Glasner potentially hinting at a new contract.All that and much more on this week’s episode of Winging It.

Eze and Olise may have moved on, but Palace are flying: 5th in the league, into the League Cup quarter-finals, and cruising in Europe so where is the Glasner slide?

Six months on from Crystal Palace’s FA Cup triumph, the boys kick things off with some glossy-eyed nostalgia.

This week on Winging It, we chat with Felix White about his new book Whatever Will Be, Will Be. The book follows Felix’s journey to a match in every round of the 2024/25 FA Cup, a season that ended with Crystal Palace lifting the trophy for the first time in our history, even knocking out his beloved Fulham along the way. From Penrith vs Pickering Town to Eze’s strike and Henderson’s save at Wembley, Felix captures the magic of the Cup like few others. But this is more than a football story, it’s a deeply personal reflection on love, vulnerability, and why our clubs mean so much to us. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
