Michael Beale hasn't spoken to former Rangers boss Steven Gerrard yet about his new role, but knows he has the Englishman's full support.
The apprentice has now become the master as Beale took up the Ibrox hot-seat last week following the sacking of Giovanni Van Bronckhorst, ending a short spell with Queens Park Rangers. Beale was handed the Loftus Road gig in the summer and despite submitting his loyalty to Rs fans, made the switch to Rangers when the chance presented itself.
The coach has less than 30 games in full managerial experience, but admits learning through the 'highs and lows' of Gerrard's reign in Glasgow will stand him in good stead to take on this next challenge. Despite this, Beale revealed he hasn't spoken to the Liverpool icon yet since taking the role on but knows he is supporting him.
