I can see him going back to South London. Namely Cray Valley Paper Mills FC in the Isthmian League where after a disastrous start they pulp him into a roll of bog paper.

Sounds like a cue from yourself for a bit of DP mega mix magic!
Huge levels of sympathy on this and the Sunderland message boards. NOT!!!😊😊

The supporters already have a lot of respect for the new man taking the job on despite a recent family tragedy. News breaking at the weekend that Mike Dodds Dad’s dogs dead.
I'm getting the strong impression Beale is/was a professional non performer.
By that I mean his tenure at Rangers ( that's Jockland Rangers ) was a opportunity to secure monies beyond an average managers capability.
Add the Sunderland job, where, to be frank he showed no appetite for the "real job ". Either in living near to the city or communicating with the fans during/post match and then body language with the players post game, hence he can walk away with a very good settlement given his 2 year contact being terminated. You could almost say that was his strategy from the outset.
Of course the above assumes he's signed up to a water tight contract where employment termination would result in a appropriate settlement. I say this based on his Agent / Solicitor signing up and agreeing such a deal.
When you consider the mans actual achievements which are pretty scant to be fair, you have either a group of employers who've been sucked into his snake oil pitch, or a game plan of maximising his apparent skills and achievements way beyond their actual worth.
Either way, its an impressive game plan, which to be honest has probably made him a wealthy man in a short space of time.
It’s funny because the results have been mixed but probably not grounds to sack the manager after 14 games. Beale’s ultimately been sacked because of the way he conducts himself in terms of falling out with players and p1ssing off the Sunderland fans with prickly interviews.
It takes a special kind of tone death tw@t to wind up both the players and supporters of a football club to this extent in such a short space of time.
Racking up those compensations . He must be minted now. All on the back of a few decent games with us. A bit like our Gareth . Will anyone go near them now?
