CRYSTAL Palace U18 boss Des Bulpin has left his role after just six months to join Millwall as their new first team coach.
Bulpin will now link up with new Lions boss Ian Holloway at The Den.
Eagles Academy Director Gary Issott told the official Palace website www.cpfc.co.uk: "We're sorry to lose Des and thank him for his time here and his efforts in helping the lads in the U18s' development.
"From all of us at the academy, we wish him the best in his career going forward."
Palace assistant boss Keith Millen has also been linked with a reunion with Holloway, but the Croydon-born man told the Advertiser he hasn't had any approach and is "more than happy" in SE25.
