Jackett's leadership has been heavily criticised by Swansea fans

"I've never doubted I'm the one to see this through," he said, after criticism from fans and his chairman saying the team was not playing to expectation.

Jackett did admit that automatic promotion is now very unlikely.

"It's not impossible but very difficult, we're probably looking at the play-off places now," Jackett told BBC Sport Wales after the home defeat.

"The loss was disappointing, but Oldham were the better side and deserved the points.

As players we feel that we let Kenny down Swansea captain Darren Pratley

"When you lose at home at this crucial stage of the season you expect to take stick from the fans. You have to accept it and move on."

The Swansea boss received the backing of his captain Darren Pratley.

"The supporters target the manager, but it was the players who were out there on the pitch and we'll hold our hands up - we feel that we let Kenny down," the midfielder told BBC Sport Wales.

"It's disappointing to get heckled by your own fans, but they've paid their money and are entitled to their opinion.

"We have no complaints about the defeat, Oldham were the better team in all positions and are the best team we've played this season.

"But our performance was embarrassing, to be honest, and we're all bitterly disappointed.

"We'll never say never to automatic promotion while there's a chance, but it's a big gap to make up and we have to start performing."
