Inverness Caledonian Thistle head coach Charlie Christie has committed his future to the club after weekend reports suggesting he could quit the Highlanders.
Christie was distraught after a 3-1 reverse to basement side Dunfermline Athletic, but says he has now cleared the air with his players and board.
He told the Press & Journal: "I know it's a quiet week for club football, but media accounts of what I said were a million miles away from my real intent.
"I never, at any time, said I was on the verge of quitting, and it's been a distressing few days having that spin put on what was an emotive outburst at players after a surprise defeat.
"But I was immensely gratified at our normal team meeting on Monday when players said they felt the team had stepped forward another level in the past 12 months."
