Career
Born in Maidstone, Kent, Beale began his career with his hometown club, Maidstone United, in the early 20th century. In 1905, he signed for Brighton & Hove Albion, before moving to Norwich City three years later. In May 1912, he was signed by Manchester United for £275. He made 105 appearances for the club in The Football League, and played once for the Football League XI in an inter-league representative match, but his career in The Football League was ended by the First World War.
When competitive football resumed, he joined Gillingham of the Southern Football League. He began the 1919–20 season as the club's first-choice goalkeeper, but lost his place after 12 games and eventually returned to his first club, Maidstone United. Beale's son, Walter, also had a career as a footballer and signed for his father's former club, Manchester United, in May 1938, however he never played for the first team.
