Nothing to see here.

Scout is, in no uncertain terms, wrong.

Bale as it stands is a spurs player.
So not done and not near to being done?? Or are you just being technical and he's prob. off??

*Note: this is not a question. :)

£85 mil after this long ass summer of tapping up just doesn't sit right with me. It would make Levy and to a certain extent AVB look like mugs to the general public after saying ether he is not for sale or £100 mil at least or bust. My only reading of a £85 mil deal is if Morata or Jese are included, Coentrao we seem to want as a separate deal which makes complete sense as he wants to go and prob would not cost us much.

I'm of the mindset that it is still Morata or bust. He needs to be included in the deal.

To be fair there isn't a single part of that post that isn't supposition or guess-work.

I would love us to keep Bale AND to spend money and go on to challenge for the title. Of course I would. But we don't know what impact an 85m+ injection of cash might have on the club. We don't know how much of a fuss Bale has been kicking up.

Basically we don't know anything.

So to suggest so matter-of-factly that we'd be stupid to sell is, in my humble opinion, pretty short-sighted in itself.

Its all guess work. Every part of building a football team requires opinions. But taken a proven asset away and replacing with an unproven one requires a lot less of it! You're reducing your variables.

Someone said the other day Scout's source is Bentley

Given Bentley is no longer at the club at best Bentley is picking up training ground gossip from players who he is still mates with

So therefore i am not too concerned about this Bale news

It's hilarious! One day you all believe JL is gonna spend spend spend to compete for the title, the next day we are gonna sell on the best player in the premiership!

I'd be doing exactly what the club has done to you. Are they not spurs fans either?

I'm sick of the club having no respect for the fans. We ARE the club.

Respect?


Promising to make a financial killing on StubHub........................whither your respect for your fellow fans and, by your own definition, for the club itself?

There is a reason why clubs scout players and it is the ensure they have the characteristics you are after.
Like rebrov....and rasiak.....

Scouts don't always get right. Pleat certainly hasn't always been gods gift. No doubt they looked great for their teams. That doesn't always equate to great for us.

Lets put it like this Bale was staying as of the weekend and no deal and since then he has and still is with the Welsh squad so when has this "100% been done"?

How many of the Bale replicas have we now sold in the last month? We must have enough for a new stadium and half a dozen world class players by now.

if bale's sold then would that not make the 50m loan from lewis(if true) kind of redundant? or did we need that money to complete the deals we've done so far(which coincidentally adds up to 50m) before selling bale?

As much as respect for my financial choices, from people I don't know, means to me....I don't care. I've given tensof thousands for the cause and seen us win fuck all....
