But the love of Crystal Palace remains the same.
The Palace Addiction 4 is a heartfelt journey through the highs and heartbreaks of thirty years - or a whole life - following the unique story of Crystal Palace Football Club. The club leads James Howland to friends, creates bonds with family, supports him in times of need and is the one constant in a world of change.
Quietly mocked and often ignored, the route to success is never dull for Palace or James. It starts as a young boy in primary school, finding identity, hope and belonging in the red and blue stripes of a club forever on the edge - too good to go quietly, too chaotic to soar.
Over nearly three decades, follow both the evolution of the club and the author's own life: through promotions and relegations, iconic players and forgotten flops, changing managers and changing times. Until one glorious day, after all the good and the bad and the fun had, the years of desire and yearn turn to fruition. Meanwhile, the boy becomes a man: a school leader and a husband, all the while never letting go of the dream to see Palace lift a major trophy.
This is a coming-of-age story about loyalty, resilience, and what it means to grow up alongside a club that constantly tests your faith but never loses your love. For every fan who’s ever dared to dream, this book is a celebration of the beautiful and lifelong bond between a team and the soul it shapes.
This is my story of a path we’ve all walked.
