Responding on the Courier’s social media pages, Shaymen fans have been putting their suggestions forward for who they would like to take over the role.
Here are some of the names they came up with.
1. Pete Wild
Has just guided Tranmere to safety in League Two but was only contracted there until the end of the season. Did a superb job in his three years at Halifax but alienated a section of the fanbase by his exit. Photo: Nathan Stirk
2. John Coleman
Hugely experienced manager with various promotions under his belt. And has recent experience of the National League following a stint at Aldershot this season. Photo: Naomi Baker
3. Mark Trueman
Former Halifax youth coach, Trueman has first-team management experience at Bradford, where he is currently first-team coach, and would be familiar with the behind the scenes set-up at The Shay. Photo: Getty Images
4. Jonathan Greening
Achieved promotion into the National League North with Scarborough in his first managerial role and has since established them in the division, losing in this season's play-offs. Photo: Getty Images
