AVRAM GRANT has denied being told by the West Ham board that he has three games to save his job.
It was reported by the BBC that the Hammers boss had been issued with an ultimatum by owners David Gold and David Sullivan that he must win at least one of the team's next three games against Blackburn, Fulham and Everton.
However, Grant denied the claims ahead of the team's trip to Ewood Park.
“Nobody from the board has spoken to me about this target,” he said.
“When you are in the football business, especially as a manager, you never know what is around the corner.
“I speak with the owners all the time, but I did not speak to them about this (ultimatum) specifically.”
