"Hopefully I'll be talking to you in two weeks. If not, we'll see."
Southampton boss Russell Martin was philosophical on Saturday after seeing his side beaten by Gary O'Neil's struggling Wolves to leave the Saints bottom of the Premier League with nine defeats from 11 games.
The head coach fielded, however briefly, one question about his future after the game, which had been previewed by some as the battle of the under-pressure bosses.
That record has left Martin under the spotlight for both his style and results this season, especially going into November's international break.
