Michael Beale to Rangers social media storm as QPR chairman likes highly critical Twitter post

Michale Beale's seemingly impending departure from Queen's Park Rangers to Rangers is turning sour as the Londoners' chairman has been caught up in a social media storm.

Amit Bhatia liked a tweet criticising boss Michael Beale amid rumours of him making the move to Ibrox. The former Ibrox first team coach is the favourite to replace Giovanni van Bronckhorst at the helm in Glasgow, although no deal has been completed yet. Beale deleted his Twitter account while posts on his Instagram have now had their comments turned off and fans can't post anything to him.

It's only a month since Beale turned down the chance to manage in the English Premier League with Wolves and at the time he insisted he couldn't leave so soon into the project and felt it was important to show loyalty to QPR.

But he is expected to be the next Rangers manager with Ross Wilson believed to be keen to bring him back to the club where he impressed as first team coach under Steven Gerrard.

Kane Dowell had tweeted: “Actually low that Michael Beale at QPR speaks highly of the owners, fans and what he is doing at QPR then sees Rangers offer him a job and does a runner, deletes Twitter the lot! That’s low… @Amit_Bhatia99 must be fumingggggg.”

And Bhatia then liked it which resulted in fans sharing the tweet further and believing that it's proof the club are unhappy with Beale in this situation.
