Edwards, Schumacher, Wotton, Warnock - your picks for next Argyle boss
We asked you for your views on who you would like to see take over at Plymouth Argyle after Miron Muslic's departure as head were many names thrown into the hat, but some more often than are some of the top names Argyle fans told BBC Sport they would like to see at Home Park. Toots: How about Paul Wotton? Solid manager, knows Plymouth and has been around in his playing I'd go for Paul Wotton if he's interested. Doing a decent job in the lower leagues and would show some Luke Williams could be a contender. A promising, attacking manager looking to rebuild after not quite making it in the Championship with Swansea. Could be the man to get the best out of players like Rami Al Hajj and Michael Give the job to Mr Argyle, Kevin Nancekivell. He is local, knows the club inside out & the area, exotic managers haven't done it in recent times!!!Jacob: Rob Edwards would be the perfect man for the Argyle job. His modern football alongside his attacking focuses really reaches the consistency with Argyle's desires. We've played this type of football for many years now, from Ryan Lowe to Steven Schumacher - it worked. John: Big mistake to not reappointed Steven Schumacher. Perhaps we can beg Bolton with the Schalke pay-off. Better option than an unknown or a big name mercenary. Option B... Mr Neil Warnock. His CV and successful record in both getting promotions and avoiding relegation is unmatched by anyone else likely to We need a manager who is loyal first and foremost… give it to Joe Edwards with Nance beside him and with the Green Army behind I think it's time for Joe Edwards to take the job. We need someone with a strong connection to the club. No more six-month I'd like Paul Wotton to be given the role. Whilst he hasn't managed at the highest level he has got experience and is Plymouth through and through. Lots of Argyle fans seem to pour scorn on the idea but for me he's our man, no I think we do best at Argyle when we go about our business quietly. So no 'big' names, thank you. Our most successful managers over the past 25 years (Paul Sturrock, Ian Holloway, Derek Adams, Ryan Lowe) have been good managers looking for the next step, rather than well-known managers on their way I'd give Wayne Rooney another go, League Two would be easier to win a game in.

Neil Warnock claims one thing is certain about Hearts and Hibs
The former Leeds United and Sheffield United boss has made a prediction over Hearts plus Hibs. Sign up to our Hearts newsletter Sign up Thank you for signing up! Did you know with a Digital Subscription to Edinburgh News, you can get unlimited access to the website including our premium content, as well as benefiting from fewer ads, loyalty rewards and much more. Learn More Sorry, there seem to be some issues. Please try again later. Submitting... Neil Warnock is convinced over one factor when it comes to Hearts and Hibs in Scottish football. The ex Leeds United and Sheffield United boss tried his hand up north for the first time in 2024 during a short stint with Aberdeen. He had always wanted a crack at Scottish football and knows that it is Rangers or Celtic who dominate much of the game when it comes to major silverware, certainly the Premiership title. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad That said, he still has plenty of respect for Hearts and Hibs in the capital. Warnock's 'Audience With' shows are taking place London, Manchester and Bristol in September, with eyes on a Glasgow date as he likes the people in Scotland. Speaking before Aberdeen's penalty shootout win in the Scottish Cup final against Celtic on Saturday, Warnock insisted Hearts and Hibs do have the ability to shake up the norm within the nation's game. Neil Warnock backs Hearts and Hibs He said to the Herald: 'I fancy doing a show in Glasgow. I'm going to tell my man who organises them that I want to do one in Glasgow because I do get on with people up here. I like the Scots, me. I never got into slagging off the football up here because, listen, it is what it is. 'Everybody knows there are two teams that are always going to be dominant up there. But I still think it's possible for a Hearts or a Hibernian or an Aberdeen to get amongst them. I would love to have had a go at that for a couple of years, bringing my own players in. Sadly it wasn't to be.' Why it didn't work for Neil Warnock in Scottish football On the short stint at Aberdeen not going according to plan, Warnock said: 'Without going into detail Aberdeen didn't feel right after a few weeks. They asked me to stay on and get through the season and get through the cup game against Kilmarnock, which I did. But I thought it was better to go then. It wasn't going to be long term for me, so that's life. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'They've got to the cup final and I don't recognise anybody left now if I'm honest. But, look, it needed a big change, a big turnover really. That's why I said to them, 'get your next man in, having a look at what he needs.' The thing is, I didn't really want to go into detail over why I left quickly. I just wanted to let them get on with how they wanted to run the club. I thought the new manager should come in and try to deal with the obvious problems that were there really. If I started dealing with them over that, I thought I'd probably fall out with people…'
