    His future could also be decided then, should know more tomorrow.

    Via @robstanton on Twitter.

    Keep whoever he wants, and offer him the job with a good working budget next season.

    Pretty easy, really.

    Pretty quick sorting the retained list tomorrow. I thought Huddersfield releasing three already was fast. Nice to see us not waiting around.

    Flicker has said hes already 2-3 weeks behind everyone else so we need to move fast.

    leeds released 10 before the end of the season, huddersfield 3, didnt Mark Robins get shut of Alan Lee when at Rotherham, maybe a clash there.

    i predict we will release 6 players

    It will also depend on who has been chatted up. I suspect Perkins, Cranie, Mellis, Steele and Wiseman have all had their ears bent recently.

    I don't mind how many players we release as long as they are released by Flicker and not by default because the board have dropped the bigged bollock of all time.

    The player I fear losing the most is Kelvin Etuhu, the guy been awesome in centre midfield, closely followed by Martin Craine both propper championship players

    the fact that Flicker is going through the retain list. Tells me he has taken the job, why would you let him be involved if he hasnt

    How do you make it through life with such a pessimistic attitude?

    Unless its a PL club, if flicker stays I can't imagine a single player who he wants to keep, will leave

    Agree with most of what has been said here.

    Any player Flicker wants to keep should want to stay. The effort that these lads have put in for each other has been outstanding.

    It'd take me about half a minute. Rob Edwards and Matty Done get your coits, the rest of you are all needed for the play-off push next season.

    Easy this management lark.
