The club has a long history and has experienced various highs and lows throughout its existence. Crystal Palace has competed in different divisions of English football and has had notable achievements, including reaching the FA Cup final twice.
In recent years, Crystal Palace has been a consistent presence in the Premier League, although they have occasionally faced relegation battles. Under various managers, the club has aimed to establish itself as a mid-table team in the top flight of English football.
Crystal Palace FC is owned by a consortium led by American businessmen Josh Harris and David Blitzer, who acquired the club in 2015. The management team, including the head coach or manager, may have changed since my last update, so I'd recommend checking the latest news for the current management setup.
