Gareth Bale (Rumour to Deal Done)

[easley91]

Actually just watched Harry's interview regarding Bale. Love how he says Bale hasn't come out and said he wants to stay, yet he hasn't come out PUBLICLY HIMSELF and said he wants to leave. Bitter twat.

It's funny but that source sounds suspiciously like Neil Ashton. His quotes on the Sunday Supplement were almost identical.

JJ and Gards having an interesting conversation on twitter. JJ still believes Bale is off as he's said 'Since when has the manager at spurs had a say in who gets sold..... He'll be the last to know!'

Well I guess Sky and the media in general need to try and save face after AVB being 'frank' (his words) in saying he is NOT for sale.

AVB's response last night in picture form..

"And you shall know my name is Levy, when I lay my vengeance upon thee"

In other news... I heard that the reason Bale didn't travel was just to keep him out of the limelight. AVB and the club don't want the focus to be on Bale and lead it to distracting the players and staff around him during pre-season. That is why he was left at home.

Again, through a DM or two that I didn't post as The Cobra (as it didn't say anything that hasn't been said already, so wasn't completely convinced that it was any new) - Levy doesn't want to sell, is very angry at Madrid, will turn down all offers and wont negotiate, however, he does have an amount in his head that he will at least being willing to start talking to them. I don't know what this is but would guess that it would be over the £100M mark.

Please don't treat this as anything to put in the RO as I'm not ITK, was just told it from someone reliable, but given various people have already said just this, it may have just come from the existing info, in a roundabout way

Utter BS. Anyone who seriously believes AVB is just walking about oblivious to what is going on and having no say in the matter is a fool.

AVB "Why is Dempsey not on the plane?"
Levy "I sold him"
AVB "Oh, ok thanks for letting me know"
Levy "Also, you should know I sold Caulker too"
AVB "sure, no problem I'm only the manager so no need to ask me"
Levy "Make sure no ground staff at the airport are looking at you as we talk!"
AVB "Why boss?"
Levy "They'll be all over Twitter and the forums with ITK info"

Love how these transfer sagas craps all over our pre season every year.

Din't say I believed him, just find it interesting that, that is how he sees it.

If JJ means Levy runs the club OK but with AVB in now as Head Coach, and with a good season behind him, I don't believe Levy will do anything of significance unless AVB at least understood why things were happening and agreed all be it with disappointment. If we are being asked to believe Levy is riding roughshod over AVB then we will soon be having a new Head Coach.

I should have qualified this mate. It wasn't a direct response to you. I was just saying it in general to said conversation.

Exactly. AVB the last to know? BS!

JJ mixing itk with opinion once again. His intentions are questionable at best. Obviously not for the benefit and harmony of the club.

 

[NYSpur]

The one thing I would feel pretty safe saying at this point is that this is going to drag on for awhile. The idea floated on Friday that announcements will be made by Tuesday are very far from reality if AVB is even slightly informed.

Well JJ can say what he wants regarding that the manager at spurs are out of the loop but no way do I believe that to be the case here. I very much believe AVB is in the inner circle regarding Bale and knows exactly what is going on.

I think AVB's comments on Bale were well planned and had a messsage to RM to pay up or sod off.

We have been through Berbs to United and Modric to RM in the latest years but the Bale circus is the worst I have seen for a long time. Football has truly turned out to be a pathetic piece of business and I am actually starting to recent the whole god damn thing.

I never wish ill on anyone or anything but right now I truly hope Real Madrid C.F. goes bankrupt...

I hate to break this to some people........







But just cos JJ says something doesn't mean its true!
I know this information will be hard for some people to understand but trust me no one is 100% correct all of the time.

I never said it was true or not. Just thought it was interesting is all.
