 the pressure of keeping Hull from the drop.

The Tigers slipped into the bottom three for the first time this season after Newcastle's 3-1 win over Middlesbrough.

And Brown's men have two games left to save themselves - Saturday's Bolton trip before hosting Manchester United.

Yet Brown insisted: "It affects you - but that's part and parcel of being a football manager, it's the game I'm in.

"There's nowhere else I want to be, I certainly wouldn't want the quiet life in the Championship.

"I still have confidence in my team and I'm very confident we'll still be in the Premier League next season." And whatever happens, Brown's job is safe. Chairman Paul Duffen Paul Duffen is Chief Executive Officer of Newsplayer Group plc and the chairman of Hull City.

 said: "Why would we change anything? We have enjoyed one of the best periods in the club's history."
