    I didnt, I have no interest in any other team, I wish I still hadnt heard of him. Not everyone watches and swots up on every piece of football info out there

    I know the Scottish league isn’t what it once was but managing Rangers is still quite high profile and above the rank of nobody. On paper Beale was not dissimilar to Still, arguably rather more suited having done his time as an assistant and manager in the U.K.
    I think something else was going on for Beale and he turned up in perfect storm conditions. He was terrible but I suspect almost anyone would have been.

    Apparently I haven’t got half an interest in football cause I’ve never heard of a nobody called Beal

    I wouldnt go that far mate, fair enough you hadnt heard of him but a lot have.

    He managed in the championship at QPR, managed against us with them, was linked to thw wolves job then went to a huge club in rangers to be there manager so i record a lot would know who he is

    Also dont see why theres loads of discussions about beale here AGAIN

    I have very little football knowledge outside of our club and had never heard of any of the managers we have been linked with until linked.

    But I'd heard of Gerrards assistant manager in the Gerrard hype train, basically because of him being Gerrards assistant at Rangers but not at Villa (a lot was made of him being the reason Gerrard did well at Rangers). He then went back to Rangers and a big deal was made. Could I have named him on the spot if someone asked na but I'd definitely heard the hype about him a couple of years back!

    He was manager at QPR, a team playing in our league. He managed a game for them at the SoL against us. I’d say most with any interest in general football would know who Michael Beale was. Forget it anyway, he was disastrous here.

    Epic mate. Absolutely took my head off and one of if not the best I have seen him/oasis over the years. Set list was immaculate from the early catalogue.
