Roy Hodgson insisted he expects to be taking charge of Crystal Palace for the final time in Sunday's Premier League season-ender at home to Nottingham Forest, but did not rule out staying on.
Hodgson took the reins at his boyhood club for the second time on a short-term contract after the sacking of Patrick Vieira, and has taken 17 points from nine games to steer Palace well clear of relegation trouble.
Such has been the turnaround in form that Hodgson has been seen as a candidate to take the job on a longer-term basis, but the 75-year-old said that was not on his mind.
