Although the franchise owners painted it a little differently when they announced he was the 18th manager of Rangers, even though he isn’t.

 

The old club had sixteen, including Ally Mccoist , who was the last manager, and the first of the new club.

Rangers Football Club

The 18th manager of Rangers Football Club.  
 …was also the guy who used to do their books.
 Eleven managers in their brief but hilarious history means they probably aren’t putting much effort into background checks on ability , but as long as the hordes like him, for a while at least, it seems that the bar is set very low indeed.
 To put it into perspective, our own manager has already outlasted the average term for an Ibrox boss, and he’s still putting his show on the road.
The announcement of his arrival yesterday saw unbounded joy amongst the BBC Sportsound staff, with one member unable to control his emotions…
Topless Rangers fan gatecrashes live TV broadcast with 'Michael Beale'  chant following appointment of new manager - BelfastTelegraph.co.uk
 You’ll notice there has been little analysis of his managerial career to date, so I’ll bring you up to speed….
Played 21, won 9 drawn 4 lost 8.
 Though he did , according to rumour, form the intellectual half of the Gerrard management team that swept to the new club’s first ever title when no one was looking. Which allows them to overlook questions about his integrity after he turned down a request to talk to wolves about their then vacant manager’s position…..he didn;t turn down the job, he was never offered it, despite how the media will spin it.
 Which must be why they’re over the moon to have him back. It’s being spun as his dream job, the one he waited for.
 In fact, he would probably have been sacked after the current run of no wins in 5…..like Gerrard at “rangers “, it seems outside events have kept him in a job longer than his anility…..
 They’ve even got a song for him…….
Image
 Which no doubt will soon change to Mickey Mickey get tae fuck.
 Especially given that the first three games he’ll be helping put the cones out for are Hibs at Ibrox, and two trips north to face Aberdeen and Ross County.
 He could be out of work by christmas……
 The Scottish Cup draw was made yesterday, and Celtic have a home tie with Morton to look forward to. I’d have preferred it to be away, and then I’d have made a special effort to revisit the place where I went to my first ever away game, as I’ve heard it hasn’t changed much.
 Cappielow Park in Greenock is the sort of place where football should be played, with the crowd close to the action and hardly any plastic stands to drain the enthusiasm of the purist.
 For some reason, I always look forward to Cartsdyke station on the west coast line as you always get a glimpse of the place, resplendent in the sunshine or rain, waiting for the roar of the crowd and the smell of the beer.
 Yeah, I’m missing the real football. The World cup just doesn;t fill that void.
 Yesterday, we had this…..

The huns mentality – “We’re going to sing ‘Hey Mickey’ to the tune of ‘Hey Mickey'”. Brilliant and original. That’s like us saying “Aye, we’re going to sing Hail Hail to the tune of erm, Hail Hail”. Fkn nuggets.

The meeja slavering has gone into overdrive before a ball has been kicked into a hedge. Beale is walking on water already when he has barely walked in the door. Wonder how long the honeymoon period will last?

The Celtic Board takes Lawwelball and Ange rolls it in glitter.
Etims (and other Celtic Blogsites) wants to wrap it in paper and tinsel then give it to the clueless wee bhoys in the New Year as a late present from Santas January Sales.

You were banned from another site due to your racism.

You then came on here spouting the same racism, which was condemned by posters on here.

You then did your hunnish walking away, bleating to get your posts deleted.

A nepotistic,narcissistic serial fantasist who is in complete denial of his own identity whilst living those fantasies out through his predecessor’s.
I would suggest should stick to writing fiction permanently but reading his reviews that might not be such a good move.
You meanwhile are serial plagiarist who knows as much about Fitba as Diana Ross does about placing a penalty.

Have a nice day Chanty.

Racism = questioning logic said no sensible person ever.

Looking down that list old co/new co that’s a shockingly poor list of managers all the way back to Walter Smith. I know slagging our board is the thing to do here but that’s a dire masterclass.

Only 3 managers for Oldco up until Lisbon (95 years) broke them.

Mind you, if number 1 didn’t go boating with his successor (allegedly), it may only have been 2.

*rangers…the gift that just keeps on giving are being sued for 1.6 million pounds by
the Sydney Super Cup organizers for breaking the agreement to play in Oz.
So that’s in addition to the 9.5 million pounds that Elite Sportswear are suing them for…a sumptuous total of 11.1 million.
Jeezo, they’ll need to sell the whole first team to even get close to that total. Welcome to Debtors Anonymous Mr Beale…”Aye Riddy” is our motto,.

Went to Cappielow in the earlyish 80s when Clydebank played Morton (they were just called Morton then) in a cup replay – as a member of the bankies youth team, I helped bring in the hamper of kit – but my abiding memory was outside the dressing rooms at half time next to Morton’s Andy Ritchie, who was having a Lambert & Butler and a can of McEwans export – think he scored the winner… X

The Bankies had a fine crop of players back in those days such as goalie Jim Gallagher, skipper Jim Fallon and a strike force of Gerry Ronalds, Tommy Coyne and Bobby Williamson. Ritchie would have been huge for Celtic if he had only had more self-discipline. An unbelievable natural talent.

Al-Ahly have had a change of heart after saying Egypt midfielder Mohamed Magdy, who has been linked with Celtic, was not for sale and now suggest the 26-year-old is available for £4.15m, the Cairo club having accepted a £300,000 offer for the player from Turkish outfit Sivasspor in August only for the deal to fall through. (Daily Record)

I know it’s the Record, so probably BS, but this guy’s value has increased 12-fold in 3-4 months, seems a tad excessive, given he’s not at the World Cup or seemingly anything else that would account for that.

Can see no downside to our players progressing in the World Cup. Confidence boosted, playing the best players on the planet (ooft Germany), transfer values increased, game knowledge improved, it’s all good for me.

” Yeah, I’m missing the real football. The World cup just doesn’t fill that void.”

Exactly the way I feel, sick of watching R Soles like Ronaldo cheating, etc.
However, if the last 8 were to be Senegal, USA, Australia, Poland, Japan, S. Korea, Morocco and Switzerland it would be worth watching them get to the last 8 just to see the entitled ones cry their little hearts out and may seem like watching football again as that last 8 played to a winner, which of course for this Tim would preferably be Japan or Oz.
