Chris Sutton has come out and told Mick Beale to keep his coaching staff in check ahead of the Hampden Showdown on Sunday. The former Celtic striker was referring to comments made by Neil Banfield recently, who tried to pull Ange Postecoglou up following alleged comments in the aftermath of our Viaplay League Cup win over theRangers.
It’s been a hallmark of Mick Beale and his time in Scotland since he returned from Queens Park Rangers to take on the unenviable task of toppling this Celtic team. Motormouth Beale as he’s known in most quarters of the Celtic support, the ex-Aston Villa coach has made a rod for his back by calling out Ange on various different occasions. His ‘lucky man’ comments irritating the supporters in particular.
That hasn’t been limited to just the manager though, as even his players have came out with blatant disregard and disrespect for the opposition and the Scottish Premiership Champions to boot, citing how they are a much better team and that they will meet the ‘real Rangers’ in the next fixture between the two Glasgow giants. It’s become boring now and the endless stream of morons in his camp just keep spouting more drivel.
Banfield has already been mocked by most reasonable people for his comparisons between Beale and elite coaches, Julian Nagelsmann and Mauriccio Pochettino. Sutton referenced this in his attack on Banfield and reckons Beale must do a better job of keeping his deputies respectful otherwise he will have egg on his face continually.
The 50-year-old said on the Daily Record Celtic Podcast: “Does anyone actually know what comments he is talking about? I think Michael Beale should keep some of his staff in check. This is the same guy who compared Beale to Nagelsmann and Pochettino.
“Beale is no doubt a talented coach, but going into management, that is a huge shout. He might go on to become one of the greatest managers the world has ever seen. But comments like that put him under unneccessary pressure. He’s under enough pressure as it is.
“Unless he comes out and says exactly what was said by Ange Postecoglou to upset them, it just looks like he’s trying to manufacture a bit of spirit in theRangers team. I haven’t seen anything said that was that bad, or anything at all.”
If they’re trying to create a siege mentality within the new club, they’re howling at the moon…

The more mouthing the scum cheerleaders do, the more stupid they make themselves look with the defeats to ourselves.
So it has to be classed as a brilliant achievement in making yourself an even bigger dopey eejit upon this green earth
