Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew has not ruled out a re-recording of “Glad all over” after the Eagles flew into the FA Cup final with a 2-1 win over Watford.

In 1990, the Palace players recorded the club anthem ahead of the final, and thanks to goals from Yannick Bolasie and Connor Wickham today at Wembley, it could happen again.

Palace struck in the fifth minute to take the sting out of the Hornets when Bolasie rose highest to nod home Damien Delaney’s flick from Yohan Cabaye’s corner.

Watford offered little in response and, at the break, Palace were in control.

However, Watford levelled on 55 minutes when Troy Deeney beat Scot Dann to a corner and headed past Wayne Hennessey.

Watford briefly had the upper hand until six minutes later when Wickham headed home Papa Souare’s inch-perfect cross.

Palace were rarely in trouble from then on, and even when faced with five minutes injury time, they held firm to see the job done.

Pardew said: “We might do it [record Glad all over], it might have a rap or house section in it, or whatever it is called – I am so out of touch it is ridiculous.

“But seriously, we have a little bit of work to do in the league, then the guys can enjoy that build up and we can enjoy a cup final.”

He added: “We had a game plan and the players delivered it to the letter.

“It’s all well and good talking about the psychology of a semi-final and not playing the occasion and all those clichés, but you still have to deliver.

“The team were magnificent and other than for a short period we controlled the game.”

Watford boss Quique Flores said: “Congratulations to Crystal Palace, they are a very good team, they have a very good manager and a lot of power going forward.

“The first goal changed everything, and Bolasie and Zaha have amazing powers and skills, so it is difficult to play against.”

“They have a chance against Manchester United, you have to be positive in the final – it is one match and both sides’ power is in attack, so it will be an exciting match.”

Palace will face Manchester United on May 21.
