I've said no in a previous thread but if it's him then I'll back him as he'll need it.
Ally McBeale. Guess that doesn't work either.Call him Ally
There's a reason folk are calling him Mick on here. It's because that's what he's known as, the name he goes by and what everyone who knows him calls him.Didn’t really have a favorite mainly down to my ignorance of available managers but have went off the idea of Beale,Simply because the last person I want is some Mick in the managers office at Ibrox,If Beale is your favorite please refrain from using Mick as a form of endearment .
There’s no excuse for ignorance,It’s the only excuse I’ve got.There's a reason folk are calling him Mick on here. It's because that's what he's known as, the name he goes by and what everyone who knows him calls him.
I understand both camps, but let's give him a chance, eh?
Very important the board back him, get him what he needs for a support team. Money tight, so we need to use it wisely for players, not something you could say we have done recently. And if there are problem players in the dressing room Beale needs to be backed in removing them
Oh, fvck. Just realised the teachers were on strike today.You literally realise how stupid what you’ve just said is he literally already turned down the biggest world in the league in the wolves job lol
Aye, he will have insisted on this given his vast and successful managerial experience.He'll have a clause in his contract that allows him to speak to other/bigger clubs if they approach, therefore QPR will be unable to stand in his way.
There is a rumour going round that he will be part of Beale's staff.The Rangers 'Ian Cathro'....
It's easy to see Beale has really impressed players & directors alike on his journey in Football.
Good video from Emi Martinez - Aston Villa goalie - talking about Beale & the influence he had at Villa. Unsurprising they struggled after he left?
Worth noting several players have said similar about MB from his time with us.
He clearly isn't getting the job on the back of his record at QPR, as he hasn't been there long enough. Notwithstanding that, when you say his record at QPR is 'Myeah' - what is that based on? Do you know for example that in getting them to the position they are in he has had little to no budget by comparison to others around him and in actual fact they significantly over performed in the first 2/3 of his short tenure or are you literally looking at their results and therefore assessing his suitability on the last 3 or 4 weeks results?I really don't want Beale.
We need an experienced manager.

When did this 'Mick' start? He was Michael when he was here before.nah, his names Michael.

You think a poll on FF means absolutely anything,really?Less than a fifth of posters on here have voted him as their first choice for new manager (Just 18% of over 2000 votes cast so far).
Hardly a ringing endorsement from the fans. If that's the overall feeling throughout the wider support, he's facing an uphill struggle from day one.
In some quarters, its being seen as yet another dangerous miscalculation made by a sporting director whose track record in recruitment has been littered with costly mistakes.
It means that less than a fifth of those who voted, want him as manager - nothing more, nothing less.You think a poll on FF means absolutely anything,really?
Still scurried like a ratTo be fair, if he wasn't offered a job, then not sure what he's meant to do. No guarantee Gio would want him...
Well,a wee bitStop calling him Mick ffs.. It is Michael, much less Tim sounding
32% of the vote was for Dyche who I’m not sure was ever a real possibility for the job. I’m honestly not sure, but I’d love to have seen a list of the boards real prospects, to compare with Beale, if a list even existed mind you.Less than a fifth of posters on here have voted him as their first choice for new manager (Just 18% of over 2000 votes cast so far).

Crap, the reason we are behind is injuries as well as collum officiating, imagine that lot having to play Welsh at the back partnered by a midfielderAs long as supporters know it will be when the team is revamped and that's not anytime soon, the squad we have at present is nowhere near good enough even to compete for our league.
Totally agree mate ...... I would put money on most of these responders to this thread were singing the praises of GVB before the European final and again before the cup final which he won! ....... I remember it well!It's the laziest appointment imaginable, yet not surprising in the slightest.
The fans are bored of the football this season, not remember it being boring under Gerrard/Beale a lot of the time too?
Was really hoping for a completely fresh approach and optimistically an attacking style of football. Ah well.
It's amazing how quickly injuries can heal up when the players have a manager they respond to.Any new manager coming in needs a bit of a miracle to begin with.
Hibs, Aberdeen, Mortherwell, Ross County & Celtic before the transfer window really opens.
Can't see the huge injury list clearing before that time either.
Because its been clear since before he even took over at qpr he's wanted the Rangers jobReally? If he was confident he would hold out for a job in one of the top leagues in the world, not the backwater that is the SPFL.
What's telling for me is that QPR do not seem bothered in the slightest about him leaving. Got to ask ourselves why that is??
Off course we support him if he gets the job but I am sure I am not the only one who has severe reservations.
Nah..MIKEStop calling him Mick ffs.. It is Michael, much less Tim sounding
I posted something on another thread which got a emoji.Cards on the table, I wanted Beale. His experience (as a coach), reputation, and passion for the club won me over.
He could yet be a disaster, but I think he has the man management skills and coaching credentials to be a success.
I've read a lot about this being a "lazy appointment" and his imminent return seems to have really divided us.
I understand both camps, but let's give him a chance, eh? What can't be denied is that we are getting a talented and highly rated coach who loves our club enough to knock back a crack at the EPL.
Beale apparently "gets it" and has posted a few staunch tweets and that's enough in the eyes of a lot of supporters. Massive backward step if he is appointed.Totally agree mate ...... I would put money on most of these responders to this thread were singing the praises of GVB before the European final and again before the cup final which he won! ....... I remember it well!
So what happened to GVBs charisma .....He lost nearly a full team of first players to injury and became the scapegoat for a boardroom of snakes that would not invest in the team when they had the chance?
Instead put their money on the over the hill mob and left GVB up the creek without a paddle?
On Beale, he had lost his last three games with QPR and now sits in seventh place,
Are people trying to tell us he is good enough for Rangers?
Not the Rangers and the Rangers supporters I know and at 74 years of age I've seen a few good and bad managers at Ibrox.
Sometimes I think these type of threads are being Orchestrated by the board or we are being infiltrated by the scum from the east end of Glasgow?
Beale has no CV as such other than being a part of Gerrard backroom team which won 55 ...... I wonder how many responders to this thread will be shouting for Beale's head on a pike come the end of the season.
Have we not seen it all before many times? Have we not learned by our experience?
For me the future does not look to good with this candidate we need experience to move forward with Beale we will be taking a step back.
Totally get where you’re coming from. I think that Beale can get key players like kamara contributing. Big he gets the job he will becoming with his eyes open. I hope he can bring Tom Culshaw with him as well pal
Yes, I agree completely. I think Beale could get a tune out of some players GVB didn’t but it doesn’t sit right with me if certain players have “downed tools” and not given a toss, why can’t they get the sack (sell or not renew contracts) like GVB. They are just as responsible for us being 9 points behind Celtic. If we could cash in on Kamara for a good fee, to get a few players in, I would but I wouldn’t sell on the cheap. If we could get a few million for Morelos and Kent, I would take it and I think the board need to look to offload them in January if it’s clear they want to leave (although that is out with our control if they want to stay until the summer and leave for free). I would like Kent to sign a contract but I personally would get rid of Morelos asap, he’s unfit, undisciplined, his attitude stinks and Colak is a better striker (finisher) imho. My only worry is that Roofe might not be fit to replace Colak if he gets injured and Tillman could possibly play that role but it’s a gamble we might not be able to afford.Totally get where you’re coming from.

We also run the risk of not appointing him, he’s successful with QPR over the next few years and perhaps a mid table EPL club come in for him. Then we can’t afford him ( we might have a manager that is successful and we don’t need Beale) and even though he has a genuine affection for Rangers, he might want to test himself in the EPL at a higher level. If he comes to Rangers and is successful for 3-4 years, no one would grudge him leaving if an EPL club came in.The moment I knew he was coming was around 5-6wks ago when he let us know with a slightly cryptic message. He said he was never close to taking the wolves job, he also said that had he been close to taking the role then he wouldn’t have considered it a step up from where he is.
That was the green light to say, come get me Rangers as you all know I consider the famous as the biggest club and a much bigger step up than either QPR or Wolves, much to the dismay of all the arrogant peckers down south who don’t realise just how big the famous RFC are.
I agree , we’ve enough micks without adding more unnecessarilyIf it is Beale, which I am overly for or against, can we stop calling him fucking Mick?
Frankly bud, he has a honeymoon period that’ll last only till the first reverse, in my opinion.Cards on the table, I wanted Beale. His experience (as a coach), reputation, and passion for the club won me over.
