“While other candidates are still in the hunt, the feeling at Rangers is that Beale should land the job.
“While Beale had officially given the go-ahead regarding his interest yesterday, the Rangers board had sounded out the QPR manager before Gio was sacked. Beale had made his interest in taking over at Rangers clear at that time only.
“While this is no guarantee that Beale is definitely the next Rangers manager, there is no question that he is in pole position to land the job.”
Beale is a safe bet so, it is easy to see why the board might be interested in appointing him. My only issue is that would he be more of the same? We all know about our struggle against the dreaded low block both under Steven Gerrard and Giovanni van Bronckhorst. Hopefully, he has learned his lessons and developed a more aggressive plan to deal with negative Scottish managers.
He wouldn’t be bringing the same coaching team that was at the club before nor would he have as much focus on purely coaching having had Gerrard as the club’s figurehead during his first time at the club.
Being the main man is totally different to working in the background, talking a good game is one thing, but putting it into practice is a different matter altogether.
So we bring in a guy who is a great coach to be the manager and take him away from what he does best. He has next to no managerial experience and his only positive is that he was here before . Just like Gio , this is the board pandering to the Rangers support , they wanted Gio , they got Gio, who by the way was supposedly a great coach, and now they want Beale because he tweets about Rangers , its a joke .Thats FOUR gambles in a row only one of which has worked, when will they learn .A strong manager can bring in coaches but a strong coach can`t bring in a manager
