It could be due to Beckingham getting pelters from everyone else after getting sent off (stupidly) agin' t'Argies. Sir Lex and presumably his disciples has always been a big fan of the closing ranks policy. So they would naturally hurl abuse at anyone who did the same to one of theirs.
The fact that he's a Scot (albeit a hun) would not have hurt. Can England produce decent managers btw.
