TONY Pulis has tonight left Crystal Palace.
The 56-year-old and co-chairman Steve Parish had been locked in crisis talks - and according to some sources, Pulis was relieved of his duties just before 7pm.
The news comes as a huge blow to the Eagles, less than 48 hours before the start of the new season.
It is thought that Pulis and Parish clashed over over the club's transfer policy.
Palace have so far signed Fraizer Campbell, Brede Hangeland and Martin Kelly.
Assistant manager Keith Millen is expected to be in charge for the game at Arsenal.
