Two clubs in opposite halves of the Premier League table will do battle today in a league match between Newcastle and Crystal Palace. The first-division clash scheduled for 11 a.m. ET will be held at St. James' Park in Newcastle upon Tyne and can be live streamed here free.
Crystal Palace boss Tony Pulis will not be forced to face his Newcastle counterpart Alan Pardew. Pardew is still serving his suspension after headbutting Hull City's David Meyler. That moment of madness, however, is the kind of moment Pulis believes outsiders cannot even begin to fathom (h/t to the Metro). "Telling people who haven't managed what it's like is like telling a woman what it's like to have a baby. You don't understand," said Pulis.
"I do get involved in the game [on a matchday]. As a manager you don't make a mistake, you don't make a bad pass," said the former Stoke boss. "With the pressure, you have to control it. I've done stupid things and you look back and get embarrassed."
Will Pulis be able to embarrass his opposition with a victory at St. James' Park? Tell us @SportsWN
