Albion’s A23 derby game with Palace at the Amex Stadium was supposed to take place on September 17, but was cancelled after railway workers took industrial action over pay and job security.

Hide AdConcerns were raised back in September about how Crystal Palace fans would return home after the fixture at the Amex without public transport.
According to The Athletic, talks will now take place between the relevant bodies before any decision is made about the game.
