    I think the point some are trying to make is some did judge him on the way he spoke and attacked his appearance before he even managed a game for us.

    I was very vocal about not wanting him, due to his lack of playing identity at rangers - imo good coaches will have their teams playing a set way that is easy to identity but couldnt with him

    Some wrote him off because the way he talked tho

    Beale was a shocking appointment, i said at the time i didnt agree with it and i wanted to be proved wrong. Some almost felt like no matter what he did they wouldnt like him because of the way he talked or how he looked - thats poor imo (however each to their own)

    Anyway beale is in the past

    I think the club are doing the right thing taking there time on this one as they MUST nail it

    Interesting. I see what you're saying. I think what drew my interest was the aspect of him looking at things in a different way- I always find that interesting. I took it more as he was selecting players on how they fitted together but, admittedly, I could have misunderstood it.

    It’s great having people knowing tactics inside out on this board. It’s just 11 v 11 for me and numbers 1 to 12.

    Dan Neil is great at turning away from people to make space, he reminds me of Porterfield

    Well they will tell you that they are. I don’t get this it’s the fans fault, as I said not one player has stood up for Beale, and there was reports of unrest. How about apportioning the blame to the players and the staff? It’s not as if a fan shouting about Beales mole made us lose away at Huddersfield
    I get that it’s unnecessary but has less bearing on the results than Beales tactics and the players unable to respond to them

    I like your thinking of sneaking an extra player in the numbers.

    Back in the day mate, when we had one sub. None of this fancy warm up, come out 2 minutes before kick off, jump around and then right at it

    They can tell me what they want, but I just see 3 year old children stamping their feet in a supermarket.

    And I watched a load of **** football with players not looking like they knew what they were doing. I know what’s more important to me when I’m sitting in the SoL

    Maybe because the manager was being attacked none stop before he even started, just a thought.

    Think it’s time to let the Beale stuff go, fans were arseholes to him he was an arsehole back, football was poor, he moved on it’s time we all did too

    Attacked, haway man, there were no dissenting voices when he was introduced at the SoL, he applauded the fans for his nieces tribute later on. Like I said not one player has come out and defended him. People are allowed to admit they were wrong about him, they don’t have to perpetuate the story that a few fans crying about his accent actually made him a **** head coach.
