Timeline

1974

Christopher Stephen Beech (born 16 September 1974) is an English former professional footballer, manager, and coach who is currently the Head Coach of club AFC Fylde.

1990

Beech began his career at the club of his hometown Blackpool at 16 years of age, leaving Fleetwood High School in 1990.

1994

Sam Allardyce succeeded Ayre as manager in 1994, making Beech an integral part of his promotion-chasing playing squad either as a central midfield player or utilising him in the sweeper role.

1995

The team narrowly missed out on automatic promotion by three points and lost to Bradford in the playoffs, subsequently, both Allardyce and Beech left at the end of the 1995/96 season.

1996

Beech moved to Hartlepool United (1996/97) where he gained a growing reputation as a goal-scoring midfield player by making late runs into the box.

1998

This attracted the attention of the Championship side Huddersfield Town, who went to tribunal in the 1998/99 season to secure his services.

1999

Beech became an established member of Steve Bruce's Premiership-chasing side in 1999/2000.

2000

Following an Achilles operation in 2000/2001, Beech struggled to regain full fitness and eventually left Huddersfield to join Rochdale in the 2001/2002 season under Paul Simpson.

2004

Struggling to fully recover from the Achilles injury, Beech eventually retired from playing in 2004 and made the full-time transition into coaching.

2005

Beech completed his UEFA A License in 2005 whilst fast establishing his reputation for player development with Bury FC supporting then Head of Youth Chris Casper.

Casper moved up to become Bury FC's first team manager and Beech inherited responsibility for Bury's Centre of Excellence, Youth, and Reserve sides with a mandate to establish pathways to the first team for their younger players.

Beech's impact on youth football was immediate, transforming Bury's youth team into Youth Alliance League and cup winners and developing now professional players such as David Worrall and Dale Stephens.

2006

"I was 18 when I made my first-team debut against Port Vale at home," he recalled to the Chorley Guardian in 2006.

"I then signed a two-year contract under Billy (Ayre)."

2007

Beech was offered the opportunity to become the head of youth coaching at Rochdale Football Club following Keith Hill's appointment from youth team manager to first team manager in 2007–08.

Beech also assumed responsibility for the reserve side and the centre of excellence.

This became the start of a 12-year relationship that would see Beech replicate and succeed the success he had at Bury's youth system at Rochdale, with a reputation for establishing quick talented footballers.

A stream of footballers came through the club's youth system and either established themselves in the first team or were transferred for substantial fees.

Current professional players such as Will Buckley, Scott Hogan, Jamie Allen, Callum Camps, and Andy Cannon formed part of this program.

2009

Beech spent time with SC Braga in Portugal in 2009 to complete his Academy Managers course which help shape his philosophy on football player development, and he went on to complete his UEFA Pro License in 2010 with the visit of fellow candidate Gianfranco Zola to Rochdale to complete the FA assessment criteria.

2011

In December 2011, Beech was appointed caretaker manager at Rochdale for a month, following Steve Eyre's dismissal.

Their form did eventually pick up, with the team losing only once in the last 11 games, but this wasn't enough and the side finished 10th on 66 points.

The 2021-2022 season began with much optimism, however, Carlisle failed to retain key players, and the club elected to sell playing assets as the season began, with defenders Aaron Hayden joining Wrexham (undisclosed fee) and George Tanner joining Championship side Bristol City just as the transfer window closed.

2012

Rochdale lost three and drew three of the six games in which he took charge of before John Coleman was installed as the permanent manager on 24 January 2012.

Beech returned to his role as youth team manager following the appointment.

2013

Keith Hill returned to Rochdale as manager in January 2013 replacing John Coleman, and confirmed Beech was to be his new assistant manager.

2019

This was to be the start of arguably the most successful period in the football clubs history, spanning six seasons through to March 2019, winning promotion to EFL League One at the first time of asking in 2014 and achieving consecutive top-ten finishes on minimal finance and several successful FA Cup runs, with a highlight reaching the 5th round and taking Premiership Tottenham Hotspur in February 2018 to a replay at Wembley, then managed by Mauricio Pochettino.

Beech left Rochdale along with Hill in March 2019 after a poor run of form

Chris Beech was appointed Carlisle United Manager on 26 November 2019, with the team 5 points off the bottom of League 2 and 21st in the league table.

Beech immediately improved performances and results, securing an FA Cup run, and taking Championship side Cardiff to a replay.

Beech averaged 1.6 points per game ratio with Carlisle and managed to operate shrewdly in the January transfer window, recruiting Elliot Watt from Wolves, Nick Anderton and Callum Guy from Blackpool; Omari Patrick from Bradford; and Joshua Kayode from Rotherham.

His first season at Carlisle was cut short with Carlisle United in 18th place in the League 2 table after the 2019–2020 season was suspended and then immediately ended due to the COVID Pandemic in 2020.The final league table was defined on a points-per-game basis.

2020

Football initially resumed for the 2020-2021 season, and Beech was forced to recruit a new-look squad.

Following a slow start to the season, Beech's side hit form and consecutive league wins carried them to the top of League 2 by January 2021, Beech's Carlisle side was playing fast attacking counter-pressing football, breaking in-game statistics and gaining the side huge plaudits within the national media.

Beech himself was fast gathering a reputation as a coach of substance and was linked with a number of jobs further up the footballing pyramid.

To thwart this interest Carlisle rewarded Beech and his assistant Gavin Skelton with new 2-year contracts, announced on the club’s social media on Christmas Day 2020.

The COVID Pandemic was still in situ and football games were being played frequently behind closed doors, in January 2021, 19 of the Carlisle first team squad tested positive for the virus, forcing the EFL to suspend their involvement and the football club temporarily shut down.

Once Carlisle was able to resume their campaign, bad weather hit the north of England, with Carlisle finding it difficult to get games on or secure training facilities given most commercial venues were shut down due to national lockdown, and other sporting clubs did not want to share their own venue and risk cross-contamination and jeopardise their own season.

At one stage Carlisle found themselves 9 games behind other teams, ultimately having to complete 25 games in a 12-week period which took its toll on the squad and initial results suffered post-COVID shutdown.

Cambridge United manager Mark Bonner pre-match stated "Carlisle have been chopped down at the knees with the virus".
