If he waits a wee while, he could be on his way back to villa
This is the point, isn't it? He doesn't sound at all like a like a 'ship-jumper' (14 games) but if not Wolves, then Villa, (Glasgow) Rangers, Leicester, Nottm Forest (!!), Southampton...on it goes. The speculation will be annoying if nothing else.
A reassuring statement from the club at some point ('he's committed to us and not distracted by idle speculation etc...etc.. ') would maybe be fanciful, but probably wouldn't go amiss.
Bit of devils advocate but...it depends how much he backs himself in this job, doesn't take much to stop being the hot young name on everyone's lips. Look at Liam Manning, linked with every job including ours just a few months back and now on the verge of the sack at MK Dons with them in the bottom 3, James Rowberry at Newport also linked with us and since sacked after they struggled to get going this season. He's only a run of defeats away from people calling for his head and his name being forgotten in the wider footballing world, why wouldn't he take a job if offered one for more money while his reputation was high? Its not like he doesn't have previous moving around clubs!

True, but in fairness we stuck (rightly) with Warburton through some rough patches, and I think despite our great start, everyone at the clubs accepts this is not a short process (unless we get very luck / good ahead of schedule) so I suspect he is not too worried about the sack, and knows he has a good core of talented players to work with. He I expect from what he says thinks he can improve a lot of them, both individually and as a team and I suspect that is a big motivation for him.

The Wolves regional paper is the "Express and Star!
they're all over it and the supporters are pro the idea.
Have a mate whose ST up there and of course Beale's CV is a formidable one.
I think our only hope is Mrs Beale, I don't think she'd be happy were she to have only just settled....who knows, but kids and personal stuff play a big part when it comes to choices.
If we get say 3-4 million in compensation then that’s not a bad bit of business for the club
And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

I think potentially Mick is worth a few hundred mill to us isn't he, though. If he stays and we get up in the next season or two. Unless he really wants the jump to Prem now (I doubt it) then I think it would cost a club a lot more than 3-4 million to let him go. I would hope, given everything we have seen from him that he will be flattered by it all and just get on with what he's doing here. I really hope it isn't a distraction to him. I doubt it will be.
Not bothered. If he goes, so what, he's been here all of 5 minutes. He is doing ok, I like him. If he were to go, I'd like him a lot less & would hope he falls flat on his feckin arse.

Interesting take. Not much we can do about it if Beale decides to go but it would completely derail our season and it would be disappointing. So yes I would be bothered.

"but it would completely derail our season "
Would it? Can you say that with 100% conviction? Maybe someone would come along that takes up another level. Doubtful I know; however, the man has been in charge for just 14 league games.
As I said, I like him, don't want him to go. If he does, then it was not the right appointment anyway.

It would completely derail our season in the sense that the club appointed a manager/coach a few months ago who has spent the whole of pre season and beyond making changes, coaching the players in a system of his choice etc. Players were recruited to suit the way he wants to play and some of them joined because of Beale.
Hopefully it won’t happen and this is a pointless conversation but yes I would be bothered if we lost Beale at this stage in the season and yes I think it would derail us unless the club can somehow appoint a new manager mid season to seamlessly carry on the excellent work carried out by Beale since joining the club only a few months ago.
Premiership / Bigger club comes in then he goes UNLESS the club get him a new Contract on bigger money – for me that would be via play off and or promotion bonus. I’m not advocating that by the way.
Anyone coming in needs to pay a release fee - make this hefty in any new Contract please!!!
He’s ambitious and progressive which is great. I would also hope he’s loyal, level headed and a long termist with a vision for leaving a legacy.
I just hope the club already have contingency plans or succession plans in place. That should be the case even without this speculation. It’s called proper planning!!!!
Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal
I wouldn't be surprised if Villa sack Gerrard and try and bring Beale back as the manager to scupper Wolves. I think Villa fans would be up for his return. I will try not to worry about any of this yet...
So does anyone really think he will leave Rangers when he has just got here? No way is that gonna happen, also he is totally unproven, madness for him to leave and also madness for Wolves to want him! MOVE ON NOTHING TO SEE HERE!
AND WHEN I DREAM , I DREAM ABOUT YOU AND WHEN I SCREAM I SCREAM ABOUT YOU!!!!!

Yeah I'm with you on this connell, 15 games in total (14 league, 1 cup). No way will (or certainly should) a Premiership team take a punt on that unless they're in some desperate situation or one that's lost already - which Wolves certainly aren't.
If Beale genuinely dropped us after such a short space of time, especially after I sat in the Fans Forum last week and heard him say everything he did - then he can go hang. But I don't think he will.
I’d be disappointed if he went as I think most would agree he’s doing a grand job but if an approach from one of the clubs mentioned came in then he may well consider it
It’s a fast track to the top flight it’s a few million in the bank even if it all goes disastrously wrong. He’s not a former White City resident who remembers going to Loftus Road as a kid and has an emotional attachment
If Beale were to go sure it would be a huge blow but I’d like to think we continue as we are both Warburton and Beale have been decent appointments in recent years so if it were to happen I’d like to think we’d be ok
