Ange Postecoglou claimed he was more concerned about what was for tea than Rangers’ appointment of Michael Beale. But the new boss at Ibrox is confident he can serve his Hoops counterpart his dinner when the Premiership action returns to the table.
Beale reckons he has the ingredients to give Celtic a real challenge and claimed the champions’ squad is no better than what’s at his disposal when Rangers are at full strength. But Paul McArdle, Gourock, said: “Michael Beale claimed ‘Celtic don't have a better squad than Rangers'. But he also said ‘Rangers are the underdog’. The new Rangers manager is definitely two faced.”
Ben Casey emailed: “Caller George Wilson claimed Beale is a ‘master tactician’. It’s a bit early to be hitting the mulled wine George. Is this the same Beale who lost five of his last six games at QPR before dumping on them from a great height?” James Kennedy, Kilsyth, fired: “Beale says that the board will back him financially. They probably will back him - at the bookies for him to be out the door before the end of the season.”
