Carbon or titanium? Weight, head size?
Brands; Head, Wilson, Dunlop?
I'd say I'm an intermediate player and I'm looking to spend up to about £50.

As for material you'll get what you pay for. I bought my last racket over 6 years ago now and that was a part graphite/carbon composite and I got it half price at £70. Basically it is mostly graphite with carbon at top end of the head.
Anything with a large head with most of the weight there will give you a larger sweet-spot and decent power, which is great for what you'll need as an intermediate. Once you get serious do you then start looking for more control and different string tension.

Smashed two Head and a Dunlop and the Head ones weren't with much forceI was talking to a colleague and he's given me his practically brand new Prince Bandit RT (?) for nothing because he stopped playing. I used it last night and loved it.
Got a Prince Rebel atm and despite the somewhat bright colours, I love it
