    Welcome Back to Rangers, Michael Beale!

    Didn't even look like one to be honest. Looked like a guy that had won a competition to be here.

    They both have that 'the coach has put on a suit' look about them.

    I obviously want Beale to do really well and if he does then I won't give a fuck what he looks or sounds like. However, coaching and managing are 2 completely different jobs and I'm just not that confident about his appointment given his lack of managerial experience (at least Gerrard brought some status with him that inspired a bit more confidence - even if only to attract players). Giving Beale a 3.5 year deal also seems bonkers. Can only hope there's a get out clause based on results.

    Define for me what a manager sounds and looks like compared to an assistant manager. Then we’ll go back and forth for the rest of the year with managers who don’t fit the mould.

    Fuck knows what you do for a living, probably sell Gerrard calendars or something, but whatever your profession how would you react to being told you don’t sound or look like you’d be able to do the job?

    Daft.

    Graeme Murty looked and sounded like an assistant manager. Walter Smith looked and sounded like a manager. Agree?

    Being a manager at Rangers is about more than just tactics and formation.

    Obviously if results are great then I won't mind if he doesn't look or sound the part, but at this point I'm not confident about Beale and no amount of insults or bullying is going to change my mind.

    You're not the only one as plenty on here have their doubts regarding this appointment. I do think he'll improve us and get the players playing to a higher standard but whether that'll be good enough to challenge for titles remains to be seen. The mismanagement of the club largely due to lack of investment and poor recruitment is the real reason we are currently in the mess we're in and listening to Wilson state almost word for word what he said when Gio was appointed certainly doesn't inspire confidence. 

    I know you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover etc, but Michael Beale still looks and sounds like an assistant coach.

    Think people more mean because he was a class player for us and a guy who’s pretty much universally liked 

    I'm always sad when any of our managers get sacked, usually because it means we're trailing the tarriers and we've been papped out of Europe. Being an ex player or a nice guy doesn't really factor into it.
