Watford have insisted Chris Wilder will remain as head coach until the end of the season, calling speculation over his position "totally disrespectful".
Reports had suggested the 55-year-old's job at the Championship club was under threat after one win in six games since replacing Slaven Bilic last month.
With five matches of the season left Watford are six points adrift of the play-off spots, in 12th place.
Easter Monday's 2-2 draw at Coventry left them without a win in four games.
Wilder was appointed Watford's third boss of the season when he agreed to take over for the rest of the campaign on 7 March following Bilic's departure, who left after five months in charge and on a run of one win in eight Championship games.
