Crystal Palace Football Club

In June 2010, Parish led a consortium called ‘CPFC 2010’ to acquire Crystal Palace and save the club from a second spell in administration and from imminent liquidation after negotiating a £3.5m deal to buy Selhurst Park from Lloyds Bank. He became chairman and leading shareholder of the Club with three fellow supporters, Stephen Browett, Jeremy Hosking and Martin Long.

In January 2011, Parish unveiled plans to move Crystal Palace to a new 40,000-seat stadium at their original home – now the National Sports Centre. In May 2013, the South London based club was promoted to the English Premier League after beating Watford in the play-off final at Wembley Stadium, beginning an unbroken seven-season stay in English football’s top division, a record for the Club.

In 2016, Crystal Palace reached the FA Cup Final but was beaten 2-1 by Manchester United.

In December 2017, Parish announced £75m to £100m plans to redevelop Selhurst Park, commissioning stadium architects KSS to build a new five-story Main Stand to increase the capacity from 26,000 to 34,000, transforming the matchday experience and providing enhanced community facilities. After the scheme was granted planning permission by Croydon Council in April 2018, Parish said: “This project will not only transform the stadium, which has been our home since 1924, but it will also have a positive impact on the south London community”.
