Well I'm 50 and for me the Palace rivalry is relatively 'new'. Before 1975 we used to see Bournemouth as our 'local' rivals - and perhaps to a lesser extent Fulham. Palace didn't register.
Indeed I can remember being at at midweek Palace v Brighton game in about 1974/75 (can't remember the year) when Brighton won 1-0. When we scored you could have heard a pin drop.
