Hull City's owners face a wait to discover whether Mike Phelan will accept their offer to take the role of manager on a full-time basis.
Hull City caretaker manager Mike Phelan says he will sit down with his family to discuss taking the job on a permanent basis after his side lost 4-1 at home to Arsenal.
Phelan has been in charge at the KCOM Stadium since Steve Bruce quit in July, and Phelan has indicated his desire to stay on during Hull's battling start to the season.
The Tigers had to play with 10 men after Jake Livermore was sent off during the defeat to Arsenal, while Phelan said the offer of the manager's job was given to him while he was preparing for the game.
