Peter Grant insists he will have no complaints if the Dunfermline board call time on his stint as manager in the coming days.
However, the embattled gaffer has reiterated that he will not quit.
The Pars sit two points adrift of Morton at the foot of the Championship following Saturday’s dire 1-0 defeat against Queen of the South.
The Fifers have not won a league game all season and no team in the SPFL have scored fewer goals than their tally of four.
Seething supporters called for Grant’s resignation following the reverse in Dumfries and, with a two-week international break now upon us, it’s decision time for chairman Ross McArthur and the club’s new German owners.

Asked whether he felt he had the confidence of the board, Grant said: “You’re asking the wrong person.
“Put it this way, I can tell you: I won’t be quitting. I know what my job is and I know what’s expected of me.
“That’s somebody else’s decision and, if that [dismissal] happens then I’ve had nothing but support from Thomas [Meggle, sporting director/part-owner] and Ross [McArthur] chairman.
“I would understand 100 per cent if I’m not the manager. No problem. I know the consequences of not winning football matches and the run we are on.
“But I can say that I’ve given everything to do this right.”
‘It was very difficult to watch’
A furious section of Dunfermline supporters had to be held back by stewards as Grant made his way up a makeshift tunnel at full-time.
He continued: “I’d expect that if you don’t win games of football. I’ve said that from day one.”
