Least surprising news of the weekend

Oh Michael, they have taken you away

frustrated tbh mate. he was the first appointment we had in years where i actually thought “we might make something of this.” he gave me more confidence than even warnock and warburton did after the same period of time.

we were very well suited to eachother, a club where he could cut his cloth and a club that would have been patient and supportive of him. its a large part of the reason we’re in the mess we’re in now.

he was held in such high esteem after turning down the wolves job but to leave only 6 weeks later after preaching about loyalty and integrity left a real sour taste in the supporters mouths.

i’m over the moon that he’s been sacked and that his stock both as a manager and as a person has taken a hit.

that being said though i do still rate him as a manager and i’d be surprised if he didn’t bounce back after this.

God I can’t imagine how QPR fans feel that he totally destroyed them and set them back years by leaving for Rangers 4 months into a “big project” that he bought a load of players for, only to get sacked after less than a year. All for naught.

What an experience it’s been to watch this whole grift unfold from start to finish.

Wonder if he regrets not taking the Wolves job.

Kept on reading people who didn’t watch villa regularly saying how “villa got way worse after beale left and it was just gerrard” but we were dreadful in beales last 6 months. Then when Gerrard was sacked, he felt the need to say he didn’t want the job (he wasn’t offered it, or even contacted about it) in a really rude manner.

Since he has been in at rangers he’s post match interviews have been so unbelievably cocky, arrogant and slimy. I always felt GVB held himself really well and came across as a top bloke. Him and ange seemed to respect each other and get on well. Beale just came across so poorly

Right now? Pretty smug

Even though our club is in the shit right now. This really made my day.

I don’t keep up to date with the SPL, but 4W and 3L doesn’t seem like that bad a record? I mean Ten Hag would have been gone weeks ago if that was bad. It’s not great, but it’s not bad either. What’s the story that led to this?

It’s going to take years to undo the absolute fucking mess he’s caused over the summer.

Disappointing that they might appoint someone competent now, but still think the league is basically over already.

Rangers fans were telling me he was better than Ange 😭😭
