Probably waiting for the views of the new Head Coach.

Retained list (confirmed)
- Thread starter Cobalt 60
- Start date
I think it took 12 days over Christmas to appoint the last manager and we have already had 6 weeks to form a shortlist this time. It should be fairly straightforward to interview later this week, second interview if needed early next week and have someone appointed by the end of next week.
That should be the time scale we are looking at because there is a lot to do this summer.

As well as the first team 3 out of contract, there's 3 or 4 youth players out of contract. Endacott and Jenkins-Davies among them.
Neither of which from what Iāve seen will ever be anywhere near good enough for the championship so I canāt see them being kept
How can the new Head Coach make a valued judgement on the retained list when perhaps he has never seen the players under consideration in a competitive situation other than perhaps a short form video?
Any new potential manager has had the opportunity to watch games since Foster was sacked. Not every game is played at 3PM on a Saturday.

The search for a manager will start on Tuesday (tomorrow).
Yes, applications have already come in, but there will be other applications from those who now know which league we will be playing in.
I think your timescales are a bit out.
Argyle have full videos of all the games - as shown on the official website. Didn't Foster say he'd been watching lots of videos when he was first appointed?
Postman Pat videos by the looks of it.

The 10 million or 8 million after Swansea's cut might pay the wages of several more quality players but not their transfer fees as well.
I think we will be shopping in the free transfer market largely or paying for a young player or two with add on potential. The exception might be a Championship standard striker.
You can at times shop at Waitrose....you just need to be around at the right time when they've finished date checking and move some tasty items to the reduced shelves ....but you'll have to use you knees and elbows to get to the front of the queue at such times.........š
Yes. Any later would be disadvantageous with regard to signings and arrangements for the new season
It's Monday. Why can't they be sifted by Wednesday, Thursday and invited to interview on Friday? How many are we expecting if you can't read 100 CV's in 1 day?
Edited to add - especially when most of them are known names in football circles anyway.
This really shouldn't take any longer than 2 weeks including the contract discussions.
