Stoke City manager Tony Pulis has refuted suggestions that he will quit the club at the end of the season.
Fresh reports had emerged claiming that the Welshman is ready to leave the Britannia stadium once the club secure Premier League survival.
Despite the recent speculation, Pulis has insisted that he did not discuss the prospect of leaving the club with owner Peter Coates this week.
"We sat there for three or four hours chatting about everything, and he never mentioned anything about whether I was leaving or not," BBC Sport quotes Pulis as saying.
"For seven and a half years at this football club, I don't think I've done too badly, and I don't think the club has done too badly either. Do you get judged over a bad period of three months? Or do you get judged over a period of time?"
The Potters are currently six points away from the relegation zone.
