You can now decide and sort out which players you would like to keep and give new contracts to?
STEVE MORISON:
"I'm sure now it's a conversation I can actually bring up with the board," Morison said of the contracts situation. "I can ask where we are going, what we are doing, what the budget is.
"Is there anyone I want to keep? How do they fit into what we want to do? We can start having those conversations now."
"Hopefully, we will get some new contracts out to some people and that can all escalate a bit quicker now."
From that last sentence, it is clear that Morison does at least want to keep a couple of players heading out the door.
He has spoken highly of Joe Ralls when asked about the midfielder's future, while he also said he has held early talks with the board over Sean Morrison, too - quite what the contents of that conversation was is uncertain, though.
"Joe is one of the main players i would like to keep here for next season."
But it is all part of what promises to be a huge summer, arguably the biggest transfer window for the club in a decade or more.
Morison has proved with his January recruits that he knows what players he wants, how they fit into his system and they have all made positive impacts.
That will have to be the case this summer, too, and Morison knows it.
He wants Cardiff City to catch up with the top dogs in the division and that, he said, all boils down to the club's recruitment this summer.
Get it right and that, he says, will hold the key to Cardiff's success.
"The things I'm putting in place will help the football club long term," he added. "We need to evolve as a football club, we need to move away from where we've been because the game's changing."
"We've got to move with the change - recruitment and scouting teams know what type of players we want. It would be the same if someone else was here."
"The reality is there is more pressure now. We've got to produce a squad of players and get them going in the right direction. The pressure has ramped up now."
"The main thing is we can't relax and settle, we need to keep pushing and raising our standards. That starts in pre-season and having a whole pre-season."
"We've got to nail down a culture, accountability and expectations on the group. The biggest key to this job is recruitment and getting that right. If we get the recruitment right it'll make what happens on the pitch a hell of a lot easier."
