That's part of the problem, £1m isn't going to make a dent in terms of getting people as good as some of the players we have seen against Argyle this season.

Who do we want as our new Manager

- Start date
Don't think £1m would be enough to get a Championship quality striker in.
If in League one or maybe even the Championship then Leyton Orients Richie Wellens should be considered. A couple of League 2 titles to his name and has had an above average season in League One. The following is from Wiki, so may not be accurate!.......
"Wellens favours his teams to play attacking football, believing long ball and defensive minded football to not be suitable to long-term success. He cites former Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson as a major influence on his approach. Using a preferred formation of 4-2-3-1.Wellens likes his teams to play out from the back and be patient, Wellens likes his player to maintain a high level of intensity, even during training sessions.
He spoke very highly of Argyle and the setup post Orient game last August.

Surely you need someone for the next six matches and then at the season's end select the man for the longer term.
Right now I'd be contacting Mr Warnock and giving Plymouth Argyle the best chance the next permanent manager takes over at a Championship club.

If we are talking about next season, Michael Skubala at Lincoln for me.
5 wins in last 5, 20 goals scored (avg. 4 goals per game), 2 conceded.
3-5-2 preferred formation.
Youth coach experience.
Suddenly finding myself hoping Lincoln don't get promoted this season..

I think a review of the process that lead to us employing Ian Foster should be implemented before we rush into a new appointment. It seems as if Simon H didn't have a great deal to do with the hiring of him based on the interview with the Pilgrims Podcast and the process was driven by Neil Dewsnip and Andrew Parkinson. Simon even made a joking reference to how we now have all the data driven processes and we end up hiring an England U19s manager.
Just throwing a name in there, Tímár has done well with his current club in Hungary and apparently would love the chance to manage us. I’m not saying we should or shouldn’t get him, just throwing a name in the ring.
Morgan cost £1m. Femi Azeez was supposedly available for less than £500k.
I thought our recruitment department was triple A when it comes to finding rough diamonds at bargain prices?
He would be my first choice. There are really good young coaches in the lower divisions ready to step up. I know we don’t have the budget and need to think smart, but let’s not try and be too clever and go for someone who understands club coaching and the challenges it presents. Championship experience would be great but that may be out of our reach.
Reading sold two other players for big money in the last two days of the window - they didn't need, at the time, to sell Azeez as result, no matter how hard we tried.
I think where we are at the end of the season will dictate the next type of manager.
If we're a league one outfit then a younger less experienced manager who meets the profile with room for improvement.
If we stay in the championship then experience and a proven track record would be costlier but safer.
Either way they need to be involved in the pre season and recruitment process.

Lilian Nalis has been the assistant manager of a very attack minded RC Lens side in Ligue 1 for a few years now.
They didn't need to sell him yet just tried to flog their training ground. They were desperate for cash and we should have pushed harder to get him.
