Crystal Palace caretaker boss Keith Millen feels he remains in contention for the job after defeat at home to West Ham United.
Palace's caretaker manager is confident co-chairman Steve Parish will not rule him out of contention to succeed Tony Pulis on the evidence of Saturday's comprehensive loss.
"I don't think today's performance and result has any real reflection on myself or my chances, I would like to think it wouldn't anyway," said Millen.
"One result doesn't determine if you're the right manager or not.
"I know from our personal conversations what he's looking for, and if he feels I'm the right one to do it, then I will talk to him again.
"We have spoken all week really, because we know it's coming to the deadline now and we haven't appointed anyone yet."
