SUPERMARKET giant Sainsbury's has not ruled out expanding if Crystal Palace leave Selhurst Park

The Eagles are seeking a move back to their spiritual home at Crystal Palace Park.

Last week, the Advertiser reported how Palace co-chairman Steve Parish (pictured) hinted at a public meeting that Sainsbury's could look to expand if Selhurst Park is sold.

A spokesman for Sainsbury's said:

"We are always looking to improve the shopping experience for our customers and as neighbours to Crystal Palace Football Club, we are exploring opportunities for our Selhurst Park store."

Under council planning rules, the land on which Selhurst Park stands must be used for activities involving leisure or similar, even after it is sold off.

But Mr Parish has previously told the Advertiser that he believes the council will help Crystal Palace by offering to lift this restriction, if that is needed to ensure the sell-off goes ahead.

CO-CHAIRMAN: Steve Parish

Meanwhile, Mr Parish has said he doesn't want to build a "concrete and steel shed" if the club moves to Crystal Palace Park.

He added: "Architecturally we would like to put something in there that paid a little bit of homage to what was there before. "
