 London Clarets (Burnley FC) - Pub Guide - Crystal Palace
The main railway station is East Croydon, and it is served by Thameslink trains, which stop at, amongst other stations, King's Cross, Blackfriars and London Bridge, and by plenty of trains from Victoria.
Selhurst and Thornton Heath are reached by overground trains from Victoria (the underground never penetrated this far south), while Norwood Junction is served by trains from both Victoria and London Bridge, although there is apparently a more frequent service from Victoria.
That said, bear in mind that Selhurst Park has a reputation for being a difficult ground to find, so it may be wise to invest a few pounds in a London A-Z, available from any newsagent's.

Its quite a walk from the railway station to the ground, I would say about 20 mins at least (about 1.5 miles) and there are a number of ways to do it the simplest route not the shortest giving you maximum chances of food etc. (there is no 'decent' food around the ground)
I have been told that the pubs to avoid are the two by the railway station (one is The Railway - although we stopped in there en route to blackburn and it seemed fine).
The station is built on a hill and has several exits so the first step is to get you to the end of Fishergate nearby.1.
