Encyclopedia
The Crystal Palace F.C.
season 2010-11 was Crystal Palace's sixth consecutive season in the Championship
. The previous season had seen Palace finish one place above the relegation zone, having been deducted ten points for going into administration. The CPFC 2010 consortium completed a takeover of the club in the close season and installed former Scotland
