Ex-Spurs Player Gareth Bale

Already fed up of this shit. Is it really necessary for the mail, sun and a number of others to essentially print the SAME story every bloody day. It's like Groundhog Day. Also the articles always begin with what seems like an absolute statement that he's leaving and then several paras down mentions that actually he's probably staying next year.
Either the press WANT the Premier League to be the best in the world (which would mean retaining its' best players) or they don't, and we'll be left with a League full of Stoke City's!
My hunch is that the written media especially pigeon-hole certain clubs and stick to it... Real Madrid will ALWAYS be the glamour forgein club that EVERYONE wants to join, whereas we are an underachieving former Football Giant who can't keep hold of its' best players... No matter how well we happen to be doing at the time!

Reckon Madrid would fall for it if we told them Kenneth McEvoy was Gareth Bale and asked for £50m for him? :balelol:
Spoke to my dad earlier and apparently he used to work quite a bit with bale's agent (before he became an agent at all)

No, the bottom line is we're not getting that offer ever. It's all bullshit.
I read somewhere that because of this partnership deal Levy got a letter from Real saying that they will not put a bid for Bale this summer.
But because they've had a shit season and Barca signed Neymar they are now under a bit of pressure to appease their fans. So they want Bale to succumb to all their tapping up via the press and put in a transfer request with a preference for Madrid so then they don't need to put an offer in but we are forced to sell for £30M.

More than likely, considering you can now add Scouse stringbean perma cunt McManaman to the list of current or former Madrid players/staff that are taking part in the tapping up.
Figo, Zidane, Ramos, McManaman, Modric, Perez
Yet still Levy says nothing. To be frank I don't give a fuck if Bale wants to go this summer or not anymore I just want Levy to take a stand and speak out. They are taking the piss and I can't help but wonder how much all this public tapping up without a statement of intent from us in return is hurting not only our reputation but potential signings.
I'm not talking about denials when it comes to speaking out though. I'm talking "this is pushing the boundaries of an illegal approach."
There's no speculation about direct quotes from all of the names listed stating how Bale SHOULD go to Madrid or how he WILL be a perfect fit. Like I just said to Tucker i'm not talking "not for sale" quotes i'm talking "back the fuck off you are tapping him up, knock it off or we'll take it further" types of quotes
Well yes that would be good IMO, but UEFA won't do a fucking thing about Real.
Of course they won't but it puts down a marker and should stop this pathetic Madrid approach of, who can they roll out in front of the media today to talk about Bale being a perfect signing
is anyone else annoyed that these ex players of Madrid are saying "Bale needs to be testing himself against the best" ...joining the 2nd best team in a 2 team league, who have just lost arguably the best coach on the planet...
