Soccer Football - Championship - Queens Park Rangers v Wigan Athletic - Loftus Road, London, Britain - October 22, 2022 Queens Park Rangers' manager Michael Beale reacts Action Images/Paul Childs EDITORIAL USE ONLY.

Micky Beale is reported to be in talks with Stewart Robertson and Ross Wilson over becoming the latest manager at Ibrox.
After just 22 matches it seems that Steven Gerrard’s trusted deputy is the man to take control at Ibrox with the task being, as it always is, to stop Celtic.
The move for Beale has been rumoured since Monday when van Bronckhorst was sacked. After playing the loyalty card over not speaking to Wolves last month Beale could have ruled himself out of contention for the Ibrox job but is clearly enjoying the attention.
Rather than use a free Saturday to take a look at Championship opponents Beale took a trip to Ibrox last month, stopping off in The Louden Tavern to emphasise his staunch credentials.
With one point from their last five matches QPR seem quite happy to pick up the compensation and bring in a new manager that doesn’t treat supporters like fools.
That would make a total mockery of everything he said after rejecting Wolves when he talked about finishing what he’s started, ‘the project’ etc.

Stock rising? He’s won 9 games from 21 with QPR. ?????
9 whole wins as a manager. ??

Think its better for all concerned if he was to move on.
It’s clear he’s at QPR as a stepping stone! Does nothing to squash early speculation which tells me he’s actively looking.
Good luck to him if he goes but I hope he does it quickly to give us a chance to get someone in.— Si (@Prem2014) November 26, 2022
Being a QPR fan, it has gone tits up since the wolves thing. If he goes he goes, if he stays… He can fook ov!

It would be nice if a scoop reporter in Scotland could ask Beale the question : Hi Michael ,but if Scottish football is so good ,why did you
Joe the Toff as soon as you got the opportunity ? Silly me ,that’s probably a £25,000 question …….Surely he won’t do a McInnes on them ! Or will he ………..!
a la Ryan Jack p will not sign for Rangers on a pre-contract and lo and behold typical
