Yes, we're mostly not disagreeing here.  I too think he'll get only a 
few people interested in the job at that salary level, but that's _his_ 
choice.  As other people have said, the better approach is to give a 
range "£x to £y, depending on skills and experience".   OTOH, if his 
budget is £x and that's really all he wants to pay, no amount of 
outraged complaints is going to make him change his mind.
