Crystal Palace defeated newly promoted League Two side Barnet today at the Hive Stadium by five goals to three in a game that was very much worth the money paid by the Eagles fans who travelled north of the river for their first pre-season fixture in the build-up to their third consecutive season in the Premier League.
It was the Eagles’ first opportunity to show off their new away kit, with the new sponsor also featuring after being announced by the club alongside the signing of Yohan Cabaye on Friday morning.

Fans took to social networking site Twitter to voice their opinion during and after the game, with it being a positive thought of mind towards the new away kit, of which will be available for fans to purchase ahead of the new Premier League season, in which the hopes and expectations are higher than ever for:
