Player Watch: Gareth Bale - Retires

[SlotBadger]

1st time in about 7 years I've got SSN on. Trying to work from home today but can't help checking back on here every 5 mins

I tried venturing into General Chat, watching TV, doing work...

I can't. I am glued to three threads in this forum.

Crikey!

makes much more sense for it to be 2 years, rather than the 1, or we will be negotiating with them again next summer.

What is this "work" you speak of?

I give it an hour before you've muted it

We saw from the documentary that SSN is a staple at the training ground whenever the players are eating etc and that they aware of media coverage ( Winks on Mourinho).

I can only assume they will be sat there a bit like us at the moment - getting pretty hyped.

2 year loan is the perfect deal imo.

Signing Bale and having him talk to the other players could be the best way to put players like Kane off a move to Real or Barca. Kane is a star as was Bale before he left. But with these types of player it turns sour relatively quickly.
There's a reason there's only one Cristiano and one Messi at these clubs

Yeah I'm sure those 4 CL medals are a turn off....

I could just be tired from lack of sleep, but surely this makes no sense. Why would we not just take him on a free instead if that were the case?

Forget this. Wages obviously. I'm tired!

Because Levy is a GENIUS

Yep, this is a good day...2020 has been pretty fucking awful but Bale coming home, makes it that little bit more less shit COYS

He's homegrown too I guess.

Small detail in the grand scheme of dazzling lights and hyperbole - but very useful.

I missed a work call watching SSN, refreshing SC and Twitter. As long as I keep my job donation incoming on payday SC!

Calderon suggesting that it would be a perm, but caveating that he doesn't actually know much. Interesting 'experienced' opinion though.

Calderon loves a chat. I'm not sure how an EX president of Madrid would know exactly what is going on at the club now. He seems to love the limelight.

 

[tototoner]

bit worried that this being so public now that if it doesn't happen soon then other teams will make a bid, unless Bale has advised Barnett that it's only us he wants to join

 

[Spurs Lodge Kittens]

not getting ahead of myself but if completed - do we still have 14 days to wait for him to complete self-isolation or is there ways around this with a negative test?

 

[Lily White Lady]

Might have switched on my Twitter notifications a bit early. SpursOfficial are now going to be trolling me all day with shite tweets while I wait for the big one

With winksy checking with the rest of the players how you spell Gareth

An option to buy at the end of it on terms in our favour would be even better.

If we pay him £300k/week, say £100k/week is our cap/limit that basically equates to a £20million transfer fee (200k over is 800k a month and 9.6m in a year). I don't see how that is so bad financially?
