Would offer Burrow a coaching role with the kids, and McGuire and JJB some kind of ambassadorial role.
I'd be happy with this, but it depends who we're bringing in. We need a quality half to help Lilley develop. And I'd like to see us get an second row who breaks the line. I wonder if it'll make any difference to them who the coachvis before signing. From my side of the fence, looks like Baldwinson hasn't had a fair crack. Will he be as keen to stay if McD stays? That said, I don't have any inkling how I tee is behind the scenes

He will play as long as he likes - that's the Leeds way
Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

For me Baldwinson the rest and I include Smith can go. That will not happen as it is a third of the squad and GH isn't going to replace that many.

I was under the impression JJB was given a year extension in October with both party's agreeing they would see how his body feels this year to continue. So up to him I presume.
I was also under the impression Lilley signed a longer term deal in September last year, with increase. However, there is a few things gone on with him since, and me personally, I would guess, and only guess, he might well leave. Would also expect Baldwinson, and one of McGuire or Burrow to not be a player here next year.
I personally would let Sutcliffe go, but would think to let both him and Lilley go would be a bit of an embarrassment for the club, so just can't see it.
