Stoke City have yet to decide whether Paul Lambert will be their manager next season.

The Potters decade long run in the top-flight ended this season.

Lambert took the reins when Mark Hughes was dismissed in January, but was only able to win one match in 14.

That didn't dissuade Lambert from expressing his desire to stay and outlining his plans for next season's promotion push.

But the Stoke Sentinel claim chairman Peter Coates and vice chairman John Coates will wait until after the final game of the season against Swansea to make their decision.
