Martinez: Appreciates that he is in a privileged position<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Roberto Martinez has been assured by Wigan owner Dave Whelan that there is no threat to his post.<\/p>\n

There is still a chance that the Latics could slip out of the Premier League this season, with a 4-2 defeat to Sunderland on Saturday dropping them back into the relegation zone.<\/span><\/p>\n

They have just four games in which to steer a path to safety, with the battle to avoid the drop set up for a thrilling climax.<\/span><\/p>\n

“He has said to me that whatever happens I’m going to stay until the end of my contract in 2012.”
Roberto Martinez<\/em> Quotes of the week<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Martinez is in the fortunate position of knowing that whatever happens to his side, he will still be in a job next season.<\/span><\/p>\n

That cannot be said for many managers struggling at the wrong end of the table, but the Latics believe stability is the key to long-term success.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I’m privileged, I’ve always said that,” admitted Martinez.<\/span><\/p>\n

“My chairman is unique. He’s very demanding and ruthless when he has to be, but he allows you to work.<\/span><\/p>\n

Support<\/span><\/h4>\n

“He has said to me that whatever happens I’m going to stay until the end of my contract in 2012.<\/span><\/p>\n

“That allows me to work long term and gives me and the club stability.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Martinez, who penned a three-year deal with Wigan in the summer of 2009, added: “The players also know that, whatever happens, they have to put up with me next season.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Dave Whelan has given me his full support in the time I have been manager and I’m going to go that extra mile to make him happy and proud.<\/span><\/p>\n

“For Wigan to be in the Premier League for six or seven years is a story that comes from the chairman.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We’ll carry that on together and I want to take Wigan to the next level.”<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
