Tony Scholes: 'We have a relegation contingency plan'

Stoke City chief executive Tony Scholes admits that the club do have plans in place in case they are relegated from the Premier League.

Stoke City chief executive Tony Scholes has admitted that the club do have a plan in place in case they are relegated from the Premier League.

The Potters have lost their last three games in the top flight and have slipped to 16th in the table.

"We are absolutely focused on staying in the Premier League and all of our plans are on that basis," Scholes told Sky Sports News.

"However, I wouldn't be doing my job if we weren't aware of the financial impact and full impact of the alternative."

Next up for Stoke is an away trip to Loftus Road on Saturday to take on Queens Park Rangers.
