Sutton United caretaker boss Jimmy Dack has revealed his future at the Gander Green Lane club is still to be resolved.
Dack admitted he was yet to have talks with the Sutton board after watching his side end their awful Blue Square South season with a dismal 3-0 home defeat to Cambridge City.
And the stand-in manager claimed his role at the club was far from certain.

He said: "It is still up in the air, to be honest.
"I am hoping things will get sorted but nothing has been agreed.
"Everyone knows I love this club but there has to be a level playing field.
"We need to have a competitive group of players for next season and, for that, you sometimes need to invest.
"I will not be letting my heart rule my head."
Dack watched in dismay as Sutton slumped to a heavy defeat at the weekend.
With hopes raised by two excellent back-to-back performances away from home, there was genuine optimism around Gander Green Lane.
But two first-half goals saw a familiar pattern play itself out.
Dack added: "It was very disappointing.
"People told me the game at Bath was the best we had played all season and then we finish with that.
"It was a total non-event and we got what we deserved.
"The key to it all again was the basic lack of fitness.
"The players cannot play three games in a week and they were blowing after 25 minutes."
But Dack hopes to stay, and admitted to plotting a route to success next season.
He added: "If you do not get the foundations right, it all falls apart around you.
"I am convinced that the foundation in football is always fitness and that is what we will be working on heavily during the summer."
