Crystal Palace caretaker manager Keith Millen is delighted with Damien Delaney's new deal.
Delaney has penned terms to 2015.
Millen said: "I am delighted for Damien. He has worked hard for it.
"He was a big part of the team last year that got promoted and he stepped up to the Premier League and has done well.
"He is back in the international fold, playing for Ireland, so he deserves it.
"He has an ankle issue at the moment that we're managing, but he is the sort of player who wants to play every game and he is the type of player you need around the place."
