Michael Beale has spoken about his sadness at leaving QPR after just 22 matches in charge.
The 42-year-old could barely stop talking about himself during his stint at Loftus Road with a strong emphasis place on loyalty.
While he was doing that he used a free Saturday to make a high profile visit to Ibrox, meeting fans in pubs around the ground before catching up with his old mate Connor Goldson in the Directors Box.
It was a horrendous act of undermining a fellow boss, one that has been noted inside the game with Beale crossing a few boundaries.
Touching on that issue last night Beale told his new club website:
I’m leaving a fantastic football club with owners that were very good to me so there’s a tint of sadness in terms of leaving that journey.
But there’s huge excitement for me and my family to come back to Glasgow and to come back to this football club.
Beale has signed a three and a half year contract, bringing in three coaches from QPR to help out.
