Pulis admits Palace problems put marriage at risk

Tony Pulis admits his time as Crystal Palace manager put his marriage at risk.

The 56-year-old has been with his wife Debs since he was just 18, but admits the amount of time he was spending in crunch transfer talks with Steve Parish was putting a strain on his relationship.

He told The Sun: "My wife nearly left me for the first time in the 38 years we've been together.

"But I'll move on. I'm football daft. I've worked my socks off for months to keep Palace up and then in the break."
