New Stoke City manager Mark Robins said he plans on taking the club back to the Premier League after a six-and-a-half-year absence.
In his first press conference as the Potters boss, Robins outlined his ambitions with the club currently sitting four points above the Championship relegation places.
"I really would like to manage in the Premier League before I retire. I turned 55 at Christmas, so, I'm really hungry." Robins told BBC Radio Stoke ahead of his first official match in charge against Plymouth Argyle on Saturday.
