St Mirren interim boss Craig McLeish has been speaking to the media after being confirmed as caretaker manager for the remainder of the season.
Here are the key lines:
With St Mirren in a fight to avoid the relegation play-off spot, McLeish wants to give the Buddies "no choice" but to keep him in the post for next season.
McLeish knew he needed a positive result at Falkirk last time out to be considered for the interim position, saying: "I knew we needed some performances, but ultimately we needed the result as well for me even to be considered to take it forward and I'm glad we got that."
He says St Mirren have delivered "two relatively positive performances" in his two matches in charge against Rangers and Falkirk, but there is "still so much about our performances that I'm not entirely happy about and want to keep improving on".
"I view it right now as I'm the guy sitting here and I need to do well enough to make sure that the club have no choice but to stick with me," he adds. "Again, I also understand that in the football business if that doesn't happen, the club will make a change."
McLeish "absolutely" backs himself and says the role is "not like an audition for me or me trying to show off my coaching skills or anything".
"More importantly, I back the group of players that we've got," he adds. "We've got more than enough in our dressing room to keep pulling ourselves out of this situation."
Away from league business, League Cup holders St Mirren have another semi-final to look forward to in the Scottish Cup against Celtic. On that, McLeish says: "We have to go into that with every confidence in the world and our aim is to progress in that and to win as many games as we can from now until the end of the season."
