Based on John's repeated evasion of the question, I'd be amazed if Flynn is in charge next season, promotion or no promotion.

Of course we do!!Bigger crowds, more TV money, more exposure etc.I don't get the impression that BF will be upset at all by this interview. He knew from the start his appointment was temporary (initially) and has been around the game long enough not to be too worried. Assuming we win promotion then he'll be in the frame for sure.
the very same scenario for the majority of the players too...think about it

And strangely timed?I've just heard it and it wasn’t great. Just before one the biggest games in our history? We should be getting behind the manager. John was put on the spot and his answers were found wanting I’m afraid.If you put yourself in Brian’s shoes, it smacks of, your damned if you do and your damned if you don’t. How unmotivated must he feel going into Saturday?I sincerely hope John was immediately on the phone to Brian after the interview?I’m just wondering whether we really really want this promotion, behind the scenes?

Hopefully, IDM! But put yourself in Brian's shoes. Your employer says "You have this massively important piece of work to do for us. If you achieve it you might have the job, but you might not". Can you feel the motivation flowing through your veins??? Not.

I don't think he had any alternative at the time but to play harper with Keegan.We've missed Keegan while he's been out.It's all about opinions, and I wouldn't play paynter n Hume together, especially on sat, we need someone to hold the ball up, it's critical that we have that upfront, and only brown has that ability and strength.
Horses for courses.Saturday were gonna be under the cosh, so we need someone who can hold the ball up and bring others into play.Browny is the only option to do that, I'd play Hume just behind and helping in midfield, with his work rate, closing people down. Paynter to come off the bench if we need a goal

I think we would get a lot of bad PR if we did go up on Saturday and then decided to change manager
