Pulis refuses to declare Crystal Palace safe

Crystal Palace boss Tony Pulis refuses to accept they're safe from the drop.

The Eagles host Aston Villa on Saturday and with both teams currently on 34 points, a victory for either side could all but seal top-flight status for another year.

When it was put to him that Palace, who have six games left to play, may already be safe, Pulis said: "No chance. I don't think so, there are more twists and turns in it and we'll be desperately keen to get as many points on the board as quickly as we can."

He added: "It can change so quickly so we have to stay focused, win, lose or draw.

"It's been a good couple of weeks for us but it's important we keep our feet on the ground - we recognise how important the Villa game is going to be on Saturday so we have to maintain the momentum we've built up over the past few weeks."
