On Monday afternoon Micky Beale was probably finking that fings couldn’t get much worse for him.

It had been a tough dozen games for the legendary Murray Park coach, the man that laid out the cones and bibs before Steven Gerrard and Gary McAllister took charge of training wif Beale observing from the sidelines.

Incredibly after he was rumbled at Ibrox after 10 months of sound-bites, hot air and promises Sunderland offered him their manager’s job after sacking Tony Mowbray.

Unlike the Gullible & Deluded at Ibrox Sunderland fans saw through Beale straight away, in the north east the natives work hard and know their football. It would take more than a pre-match visit to some local pubs and photo opportunities to convince them that the former Charlton youth team reject was capable of improving on Mowbray.

Saturday’s defeat away to Mowbray’s Birmingham City followed a midweek loss at Huddersfield and Beale was gone #bealeout. It took the Sunderland board 12 matches to suss out that they had been sold a pup with coaching badges.

While fans were calling for his head an account on X had been trying desperately to stand up for Beale- with a trail all the way back to the man himself, founded in July 2017 in-between a very brief spell as an assistant manager in Brazil and taking up the key role of Liverpool u-5 coaching co-ordinator.

Beale used social media extensively to create a profile for himself at Ibrox, after leaving he continued to appear on Ibrox fan podcasts and was always willing to be interviewed by fan media website.

At times it seems that McAllister and Gerrard were his assistants.

During 10 months at Ibrox Beale’s insecurities were always close to the surface, he was forever name dropping and talking account his own achievements.

With three short managerial reigns on his CV and his burner account activities it looks like the only career path open to Beale is to join Kenny Macintyre and the lads at BBC Sportsound.
