    Absolutely right. He’s not saying anything racist, sexist, “bring the club into disrepute” type thing, so what and how he says stuff is irrelevant.

    Unfortunately. up to now, his coaching performance has left an awful lot yo be desired. Hope to god he changes my mind. (Unlike some idiots who seemingly want us to lose!)

    If we go 1-0 down on Saturday, I dread the fan reaction.

    Exactly this, I've had to mute words like "bealeout" etc on Twitter as the personal abuse is absolutely embarrassing.

    I'll post about the pre match press conference here because smug is having a strop

    Ridiculous comments from Beale today. Sarcasm and calling fans as outsiders.

    Basically he's saying that it's harder to coach player from the North as they don't get the instructions as quickly, you have to dumb in down.

    Something in nothing for me, but he said what he said.

    That’s not very clever unless he’s sick of the personal abuse and just thought f-k it

    From reading the headline, it appears WSM are using this 30 second clip to suggest he has a lower view of northern people.

    As i said later in the thread, its not helping the situation if WMS post things like this

    Beginning of the end for him. Lose on, Sat, get smashed by Boro then he goes after we lose to Plymouth.

    Season over, Dodds to keep us midtable, go again (again) in the summer

    It's not WMS tweeting, just a lad who writes for them

    He was referring to outside noise which is fair enough but am sure you will spin it and take great offense

    99% of the "noise" is coming from the fanbase, so yes he IS talking about us.

    As a professional he has to ignore it and concentrate on what he can control.

    Absolutely spot on, I am ...

    ... but nothing compared to a few others who'll claim, to the death, they're not and haven't been all month.

    Bob's posting that he'll tell a new signing, to his face, that he's not fit to wear the shirt and people are liking his posts ...

    ... but we're supposed to sit back and say nothing like a bunch of cowards?

    Fck that.

    It looks like it's an old vid and what he's actually saying is that working in London, which has a larger population, there are more youth players to choose from than there are in Liverpool, which has a smaller population.

    Anyone seen the Six Nations Full Contact documentary on Netflix? Andy Farrell, Ireland Rugby Union Head Coach, says "as coaches, we know that we're not anything without good players".

    Just something to think about.
