We will move on lads but Rooney was desperate for a move, he goes on the pitch and was for me MOTM against Chelsea. Before that he still trains etc.

It just always seems to be us who get the moody ones!

Meh, I won't stoop down to petty insults towards Bale (as some on this forum will) but I'm almost certain he'll be a flop at Madrid, that's not bitter either - It's through logical reasoning.

Thank goodness that is finally coming to an end!
We now move on and finish assembling the best squad that we've had in ages off the back of the Bale money.
I like the way that AVB mentioned that there are other ways to pay the fee and that it will be a World Record amount.

Me too. And why the fuck hasn't he put in a transfer request?


We should accept the fee on the Real Madrid side, but refuse to sign the papers to release Bale until he hands in a transfer request. He'd do it, as time begins to run out. Spoiled brat.

You can bet I will. Bloody ungrateful git. Hope he utterly fails. Wanker. :D

Guys keep some dignity please, this could easily go the way of those comincal threads on RAWK, where everyone loves the guy until he goes/doesn't come and then they start insulting him for only being interested in money/massive ego/not being that good anyway/not even as good as [insert youth team player no one's heard of]/big nose/flappy ears etc

Sounds like Bale deal is imminent, first time AVB hasn't been in denial. Sounds like he's also burnt his bridges with AVB (Bale that is). He's ended his amazing time at Spurs on a really sour note. I've said all last season he had changed as a person (heard from a source not my onion) yet people still wanted to be in denial and believe he was that 'quiet, mummy's boy'.
He was gone the minute he had his ears pinned back. If you think about it, that's when it all started to be about image etc etc. Fair enough it meant he lost the PG Tips contract and he was never going to be a poster boy for Fyffes, but it's brought him much more lucrative deals. Can't say I blame him for wanting to go to Madrid, but all this monkey business about him not turning up for training etc etc has left a sour taste. And no amount of 'I love the fans and I hope they understand' bollocks is going to gloss over that.

Can honestly say I hope it doesn't go well for Gareth at RM. Total disregard for the manager that got the best out of him so he could get this move. I don't care what he's done for the club, he needs to act professionally and with respect considering the fortune he's being paid. He doesn't want us anymore, I don't want him.

Can't compare the Rooney deal mate and trust me, if Madrid were sniffing round him as much as Bale then Rooney would have been offski.

He's going abroad, we are getting a (likely) world record amount and in Lamela we have one of the most exciting talents coming through and can step into the void.

And Joe Lewis laughing histerically to himself waving a betting slip with '5/1 Bale to stay, £10million placed' on it and saying to everyone "this is how I planned to get my £50 million back you thunder****s"


He lost 500m on Bear Sterns!

BREAKING NEWS
Tottenham will consider fining Gareth Bale after he did not show up for training for two consecutive days, manager Andre Villas-Boas says.


So I have urged caution about having a go at Bale over that story which really went hot yesterday. Now we have the ultimate ITK that it is true, that Pink shorts wearing asshole is fair game. I have had hope that he would stay but have always been willing to accept he might not and would wish him well as he is going to bring us a record fee at least and was so great for these past few seasons.

But this kind of thing is the way to make himself loathed. I hope he goes to Madrid and is loathed by the training room full of equally petulant children and is miserable.

Lamela isn't confirmed and yet still trained, so already there is one thing I like about Lamela more than Bale.

If there was a football god, Spurs would play and beat Real Madrid in the CL final in two years time while Modric and Bale watch on from the Madrid bench.

At least he is leaving for a hefty fee. The kid could have easily handed in a transfer request or gone public with his desire to leave. That would have drastically reduced the amount we got for him. We don't need to bad mouth every ex spurs player. He did a lot for us and the money we get for him is going to take us to a whole new level. I for one am grateful that we had him and I wish him luck in the future.

Well perhaps he needs to call someone a nigger and bite someone, then we would love him again.

Who is this fucktard?

Some little racist who doesn't know what day of the week it is and hasn't grasped that around the world people name their cities in different languages.

I'm going to the game on Thurs, and if I see a Dinamo fan on the train or whatever, I might tease them a bit about the score but I would NEVER mock their language or the country they come from.

Grrr! that Mirror wanker has made me angry:mad:
