Taken star Liam Neeson is a Crystal Palace fan, and one of the Eagles’ most famous supporters.
The actor grew up in Northern Ireland, but moved to London in his 30s and has been known to ask chairman Steve Parish for spare tickets.
The Eagles are based in Selhurst, South London, and the Premier League club was founded in 1905.
Despite initial concerns over the appointment of Patrick Vieira, he’s managed to transform the team with his attacking brand of football and growing a new kind of fan base.
Selhurst Park is bouncing and a legion of online and in person fan base is growing by the day.
These are some famous faces who have supported the team through the best of times and the darkest of hours.
Some who have been with the team despite the temptation to jump ship to winning machines, that have been created by foreign investors with bottomless pits of money.
So with things looking really promising for the Red and Blue army, here are some of the famous faces you might not know support the Eagles.
