TONY Pulis has paid tribute to Everton FC for the way they looked after the Eagles in the wake of the recent Goodison Park postponement.

He said: "I have to say Everton Football Club were absolutely fantastic.
"When the game was called off they fed the players, they found us a hotel to stay in, they got us training
