Michael Beale... NO....NO....NO....

[Andywolf74]

Bullet well and truly dodged when he turned us down 16 months ago. Pretty sure we’d have got relegated had we appointed him.
If as expected Silva leaves in the summer for way less than we paid for him, it pales into almost insignifance compared to relegation.
What a crazy industry football is. In 16 months Beale has probably earned millions by failing in two consecutive jobs !!!

The opinions of some folk, l'm not saying that you are one of them, do seem to shift according to whatever the latest line from the club is.....

It's my mum's funeral on Thursday so apologies if l came over as harsh.

Condolences to you and yours

Sellers got the boot because Lopetegui wouldn’t work with him.

His position was untenable as such....cause basically Jeff and Fosun had had to put there hands deeper in there pocket and go crawling to beg Jorge again with lopetugui....as Sellars in his role had proved incapable of bringing a manager in .....

None of it matters really...old news....bullet well and truly dodged....but bit harsh to blame Hobbs when it was Sellars job....

Yeah I agree all turned out well in the end

I would be interested to know how many £ millions in contract pay-offs to date Beale has earned for relatively short work periods. A 2.5 yr contract cancelled after two months. Football clubs need to wise up and not be signing lengthy contracts for any but the top managers.

 

[Oldgold Wolfcub]

Now he has been outed again how long will it before he suddenly turns up on Eastenders as the long lost love child of Ian?

 

[manchesterwolf17]

Look at the pig's ear Lampard's right hand man is making of Millwall as well. No doubt Beale has the ability to talk a good game in interviews but is clearly all fur coat, no knickers.

Appears to fail each club’s no ****s rule.

I'd argue three. QPR started sliding down the table and he quickly jumped ship to Rangers before his stock fell any lower. Con artist.

Excellent judgement on JL's part.

I presume that most coaches don’t receive as much as some fans think when they’re fired.

His Rangers pay-off would have also ended or lowered considerably once he took up the Sunderland job

Sorry to hear that but I trust you will always have happy memories.

They were seventh when he left, 6th a game before so a bit daft to call that a failure.

He’s not a con artist. He may have doubted his own ability and thus was reticent about working in the PL at this time.
He’s a qualified coach but whether he’s any good or not is another point.

Edit…..written before the fake Twitter account was revealed.

It makes me shiver to think he could have been our manager, and all this we’re seeing with GON wouldn’t have happened. A real sliding doors moment.

The comments on that post sum up why no fans anywhere will celebrate his appointment if he gets another job.

I saw separately that one of the final straws was the players reaction when after a defeat, he made them do extra training while he took a day off. How’s that for arrogance and not taking responsibility for his part in the defeat? A truly awful coach.

When he was mentioned for us I felt very meh about it but talked myself round that maybe an up and coming coach was ok.

His behaviour after our approach tho was terrible. Glad it never happened.

That last part is bloody disgraceful behaviour!!! Surely as the manager you would want to be there hands on to fix issues even if he blames the players…… truly odd behaviour

Shows he doesn’t respect the time of his players or staff to get them in for extra stuff and not turn up himself.

This thread keeps giving me Mark McGhee Flashbacks !

This would explain why I woke up drenched in sweat and screaming last night !!!!!!!!

 

[Ned]

He tried to make us look like a laughing stock whilst trying to enhance his reputation and it worked for a while as he was everywhere in the media and online tossing himself off whilst repeating the word loyalty.

We got accused of sour grapes when we said he wasn’t offered the job anyway and took umbrage to almost every word that came out of his mouth after that. Well, thank **** this clown rejected a job he was never officially offered in the first place or we would be in the championship right now with one of the many “safe pair of hands” managers in charge keeping us in with an outside shot of the playoffs.

Also, the cynic in me thinks that Beale knew that we were holding out for Lopetegui, was not the first choice by any stretch of the imagination and any appointment wouldn’t be before the winter break/World Cup break so knew he wasn’t a shoe in.

Just to prove how little I know, when Mark McGhee was appointed manager I felt it was a very good move by the club and would see us promoted… !!

Doomed to fail with an ego like that

You weren't alone in that Frank, an awful lot of us thought the same.

 

[Scallywolf]

I felt the same Frank.

He was appointed after Jonathan Hayward was apparently blown away with a Reading performance when we played them at the Mol. McGhee was their manager at the time before he moved to Leicester, where he stayed only 12 months. I think we thought he was a really good, up and coming manager at the time.

I often think of Steve Corica and Kalac, the goalkeeper that never was!

Never forget him starting with Steve Claridge and Paul Simpson, leaving Bully and Robbie Keane on the bench in Cup semi final defeat to Arsenal!

McGhee never gave credit to anyone or any team.

He was given plenty of backing, but he won’t be remembered with much affection.

His team talks were utterly inspirational and sent the starting line up out with passion and fire .............................................................. Sadly that side was more often than not who Wolves were playing that day, as the amount of times he could not keep his trap shut from spouting what the Americans refer to as Bulletin Board material was incredible !!!

People on this thread have mentioned a ' Sliding Doors ' moment reference Michael Beale. McGhee was such a happening as we paid a King's ransom to get him from Leicester who appointed Martin O'Neill as his successor and would go on to get promoted and have one of the best periods in their history. Meanwhile under McGhee, Wolves blew promotion ( a familiar refrain ! ) and would spend yet more seasons in the Division from Hell !!!

For those without Twitter.....

A Twitter account called 'Player ID' has been posting pro Mick Beale tweets for the last few days, showing things like camera angles to defend him not shaking his player's hand, retweeting stuff about no one wanting the Sunderland job if he's sacked, etc. etc.

The same account has historically Tweeted stuff about Rangers, during Mick Beale's time there.

Turns out, this account is linked to Mick Beale himself.....


Unbelievable Jeff!!!

I think that Beale avoided us as we offered him the job - allegedly.

Don't want to 'bash the club', but how did we even get to consider such a person, let alone offer him a chance to manage us?

Cant remember who was in charge of that side of the club at the time was it Sellers or Hobbs?
