Michael Beale spotted at Ibrox as Rangers secure win v Aberdeen
Queens Park Rangers boss Michael Beale was spotted at Ibrox on Saturday (29 October) as Rangers returned to winning ways against Aberdeen.
Sky Sports journalist Andrew Dickison has reacted on Twitter after The Louden Tavern (a popular pub) posted a picture of Beale on Twitter, spotted at Ibrox earlier today.
The 42-year-old QPR boss has already turned down a move to Aston Villa and Wolves, and he could one of the potential candidates to replace Giovanni van Bronckhorst (if he is replaced at all) at Ibrox.
Via Twitter, Dickinson wrote: “And what did you make of Mick Beale’s presence at the game today, Giovanni?”
Pressure off?
It was a great response from the Gers after they conceded an early goal. Back to the walls, the fightback began, and the team showed great fighting spirit.
Antonio Colak scored the equalizer for the Bears, while John Lundstram and James Tavernier also got their names on the scoresheet.
In recent weeks, Giovanni van Bronckhorst has come under intense pressure after some poor results. The performances dipped horribly and there are even suggestions that the Dutchman might not last long before the World Cup.
Beale is a popular figure among the Gers fans. He came north with Steven Gerrard back in 2018 after the pair worked together at the Liverpool academy.
However, he wants to create his own identity as a manager and took up the QPR job. They have made a fantastic start to the season, and find themselves third in the league.
It could well happen that he has popped in to watch the game, but there could be behind-the-scenes talks as well.
The Dutchman will feel the pressure has been taken off after the win today, but the Bears cannot afford to drop any more points as they need to close the gap with Celtic.
