Pulis breaks silence on Palace departure (sort of!)

Tony Pulis has broken his silence on his departure from Crystal Palace.

Pulis walked out on Palace on the eve of the season.

"The second meeting we had, on the Thursday night, was actually over dinner in Soho and it was all very amicable," Pulis told the Daily Mail. "At Christmas it's fair to say we had differences of opinion with respect to players coming in. But, look, a chairman has every right to ask why you're doing things and challenge you. It's their football club, their money.

"At the end of the day we were two adults going in different directions. I have no problem with that and, to be honest, I don't really want to go any further into the reasons why I left; only to say that I had a wonderful 10 months there."
