As a rangers fan, Beale was more damaging to our club than pedro caixinha was. Pedro was the completely wrong manager for the demands that rangers had, but he had minimal backing and inherited an awful team, Beale on the other hand was the complete opposite, inherited a team that retained much of the core parts that went to a europa league final. He turned a competitive team that needed 3/4 more players to be a winning team into a shell of its former self after spending roughly 20million which for rangers is like if Everton spend £100 million in a year. Worst thing is, I wanted Beale to do so well at rangers.
I love Zealand's portrayal of Ange at Tottenham is basically Crocodile Dundee turning up in North London, saying "G'day mate" carrying a Fosters in hand, and then competing for top 4. I can't help but love Ange, as a fellow Aussie.
American Mackems: 1) Lynden Gooch (adopted Mackem/Legend). 2) The Reyna family (Claudio played for Sunderland, Gio born in Sunderland). 3) Zealand Shannon (masochist).
I usually take great pleasure in having a laugh at Sunderland's expense, I'm a Newcastle fan, of course I do, and this is no exception. But their fans were against this from the get go and when you look at his managerial stint there as a whole, not just the last week, it's obvious to see why
Yep. 3 jobs in a row, 3 fanbases who hated him. When Sunderland appointed him Rangers fans warned us that he would alienate the players, fall out with the fanbase, be far too active and sensitive on social media, push a brand of awful football, spout corporate buzzword BS like a machine gun. All of this came true.
Zealand please do a video about my beloved Ipswich Town. New American owners almost 3 years ago and we're on the up, fighting for automatic promotion despite every team around us having parachute payments
I knew I liked you for a reason..FM fanatic and a Sunderland fan, you're like my American counterpart 😁 If you don't already know, you might be interested in a club in Kenya called Sunderland AFC Naivasha (formerly Sunderland AFC Keroche/Karai). They're a club of Sunderland fans who are sponsored by locals in the North East of England and they stream their matches and share Club News on Facebook. They are now on a similar rise to us but in the Kenyan Football Pyramid and it's a lovely representation on how the sport brings people of all lives together. I think it would be an excellent story to cover on your channel.
He’s a great coach in a team of coaches like he was at rangers and Liverpool but I think he’s incapable of being the main man with so many eyes on you. Rangers and Sunderland have big fan bases and it’s a tough job to walk into either without a lot of experience. Especially rangers and the demands expected
Whatever else you think, putting your profile on private is the correct choice to be honest: His inbox will be lit at the moment, but this will have all blown over in a few weeks time. Common and sensible approach to dealing with online drama.
Oof as a North American (Canadian) Sunderland fan who picked them because they were far away from Bristol (where I was living) and they were similar to my grade school team I played on. So I feel the pain of that support. Of course when I started following they had Nail Quinn and Kevin Phillips which was a lot of fun. Beale was a foolish appointment and I am glad he is gone.
Rangers fans had said that Beale was known for engrossing himself in social media and taking every criticism personally. Even still, having an anonymous account to big himself up was a revelation nobody saw coming
i've really enjoyed this, never knew that just listening to zealand telling me stuff would make me want to actively come back to listen, looking for a new video, this format is a slow moving but will ultimately be successful
Its also somewhat relevant that the toxic fanbase tweet is from a coventry fan, a team that Sunderland hate almost as much as Newcastle for famously getting them relegated in the 70s.
Zealand being a sunderland fan is something i didnt expect 😂😂also a manager having a burner account on twitter and hating his fans is absolutely absurd
Love hearing you talk about my team :) but this whole fiasco is classic us, it's never dull. Fans didn't want him from the get-go, and he himself made it worse as time went on. Absolutely awful situation, shouldn't have let Mowbray go, or let this chancer come in
We knew Beale was a Charlatan from the get go. A lot of rangers and Sunderland fans know each other or follow both teams. We’d heard a lot about him from rangers fans and straight away used the same playbook he used up there. Throwing players under the bus, not being able to take the blame for a defeat etc. complete prick of a bloke and every Sunderland fan I’ve spoke too including myself is glad he’s gone. Not even one person I know and this was before the player I’d stuff
Someone made a full on thread on Twitter/X detailing everything he’s done wrong. It’s somewhere under @Vizeh’s initial tweet asking why he’s such a bad manager. From that thread I also think he’s probably not that great of a person either. It’s BLEAK 😂
Good on Beale for at least being honest. Some modern fans would not mentally cope if Neil Warnock took their team over: Fan: 'I sooo disapprove of that uncouth savage managing my beloved team, oh the horror!' Warnock: 'Ooop yer arrrse an tak yer brayn fer a shite!' Fan: *TRAUMATISED FOR LIFE*
Dude, when I was 9 in 2005, the janitor of my school (in Germany) gave me a Bolton shirt as a present. What follows was me being a Bolton fan for a few years, witnessing their slowly downfall. A bit different from all the other 9 year olds being Bayern fans 😅
You need to check on Tigre's mánager Gorosito, who affirms that a player allegedly heads a bottle searching for being hurt on purpose last week for argentinian cup between Chacarita AND His team
Life long Sunderland fan and born and bred in Sunderland! I'm just about to go to the match ( season ticket holder for 27 years) I've seen some shit in my time but never ever seen this happen! Beale will sneak off to a club in Europe spouting his David Brent rubbish blaming everyone else apart from himself! Sunderland fans admittedly didn't want him and his first home game was toxic! He should never have been given the job but it's not his fault in applying! Hopefully Dodds can get us into the playoffs ( be very hard ) and we get Will Still in the summer!
"Ange came in ... and everything turned around" lol'd a bit, this was true for first 3 months, now they are 5th again and if they will go like this they will finish below United. Looks like it's not the managers, it's team who is cursed.
@@Pyretik 100%. After losing Harry Kane most people would have said they were mid table at best, instead they'll probably finish higher than they did last year, and they're actually fun to watch now.
It really didn't help that Cov stuffed Sunderland 3-0 at the Stadium Of Light in Beale's first game in charge. Boos were ringing around the stadium after the second one went in halfway through the second half and upon the third just three minutes later, the whole place emptied!🤣
Honesty? Sure. But I still wouldn't want that man as my manager. Because he's clearly never thought through anything he's ever done and well... I don't want that kind of man running my team. No criticism to honesty, but there needs to be some level of intelligence as well.
It's a ride being a safc fan. 90% of the time it's terrible but that other 10 percent is just the best! It's never dull! Sunderland chaos theory hoooooo
I lost my attention span in this video because I have "haven't I see this name before" moment. It turns out, I had. He was an assistant for Rogerio Ceni at São Paulo. And he got fired as the rest of the staff since bad results and Brazil shenanigans. At least the Guy its honest. Professionally stupid. But honest.
That account, along with a ton of other evidence, proves he's not an honest guy though (even if he admitted it was his). Many managers need to learn words have meaning & actions have consequences. I'll always go back to Benitez (as a Chelsea fan) to make this point, he calls us soulless & says he'll never manage a club "like us", then has the cheek to play the victim when it's apparent he'll never be given a chance with the fans. Was just a throw away comment to connect with Liverpool fans at the time, but it showed he has no respect & the fact he didn't live by those words (and refused to acknowledge he even said them) showed he has no integrity. This is a hole Beale dug himself. He didn't need to preach about loyalty at QPR, were throw away comments to make the fans embrace him even more, then actively looked to jump ship within months - so immediately no-one's going to take you seriously cos your words are meaningless. Just like that account, anytime he praised Sunderland in interviews is utterly meaningless now, what owner will hire a guy they can never trust is openly saying what he's feeling? At that point all you have left is coaching skill to offer & football management is too competitive & unstable to stay anywhere for a significant period of time based on that alone.
As a sunderland sufferer im kinda just numb to it sll now. Beale was never going to be a popular choice, but man the football was trash and he came across as arrogant. He was a bit if a divvy
😂😂😂😂 beale at rangers was a shit show and we tims fucking loved every second it From the supposed elite head coach to the man behind the man Gerrard winning a title when their was a global pandemic happening to watching them demand his head and realising they had been took for a ride was just class to see and him winning 1 game against celtic after celtic had won 2 trophies the LC and the league at had knocked rangers out the Scottish cup the week prior gave them pure hope he was still man behind the man
Luton Town fan here, when both teams were in Division One, Sunderland fans took great delight in telling us how we were sh#t and going back to the Conference, how they were the biggest club ever and were going to be in the Premier League in 2 years. They are the most toxic fans I've dealt with personally, even compared to the crap we get from Premier League now is nothing compared to the bile thrown at Luton from Sunderland fans. They're always gonna be in Newcastles shadow.
Zealand… I used to like you… and now I find out you’re a Mackem?! Nah, unsubscribed, can’t be following a Sunderland fan. As a Middlesbrough fan it’s just not allowed. (Joking of course before anyone starts)
Fans love to say 'it's just a game, I dont know why there has to be so much money involved.' Meanwhile, when those same peoples team loses, they act like their lives are over lmao. All I'm saying is I can totally understand people at bigger clubs to hate most of their fans.
